    Student Awakener - Hema Bhaskaran

    Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts. And Winning doesn’t always mean being first. Winning means you’re doing better than you’ve done before. My guest is my friend, my well wisher and my college mate,  Hemalatha Bhaskaran who has  recently honored with 2020 Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. Hema has been teaching at James M. Bennett High School (one of the Wicomico county public schools) since 2004. In her classroom, she focuses on developing 21st-century skills through real-world scientific exploration and problem solving. This is not the first time that Hema has been recognized as an outstanding teacher. She has also secured the 2014 Maryland’s Environmental Science Teacher of the Year.

  7. Today is the Gift

    Today is the Gift

    Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why we call it ‘The Present’. If you’re offered a seat on a rocket ship, don’t ask what seat! Just get on.  It's important that you are being here now. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; As Mahatma Gandhi quoted, The future depends on what you do today. Today I have four wonderful teen aged boys who have started experience the reality of life.

    Foster Imagination - Great Young Minds

    Creativity is the ability to generate and communicate ideas and appreciate the nature of beauty. It fosters imagination, innovation, and a sense of aesthetics. Many children don’t recognize their own creativity. They limit the idea of creativity to art or poetry. But creativity is a process in which everyone participates and benefits. Some of us express creativity in the way we dress, the recipes we write, the doodles we create, or how we make people laugh. I have five young creative minds, who are ready explore their creativity. I have 5 middle school going kids, Nithya, Gaurang, Negha, Aasrith and Samyukta.
