To make home learning more engaging
and add value to online learning, we
devised ‘Get Mentored’ sessions, where
renowned professionals from different
walks of life mentor our higher secondary
students to broaden their perspectives and
provide them with first-hand knowledge
about different professions.
Recently, Viswanath – an educator,
musician, entrepreneur, and co-founder of
Karadi Tales and Karadi Path Education
Company – mentored our students on how
to become successful entrepreneurs. He
sang and made them sing, recited poems,
and inspired them to think creatively and
be expressive.
Jeyanthee, from Isha Vidhya Nagercoil,
says that she learnt many new things and
gained the confidence to pursue her career
goals. Our teachers were also inspired by
the session and learnt new ways to guide
their students.
Some recent guest mentors were Gururaj
Desh Deshpande – US Entrepreneur,
Shalini – VP Infosys, and Atul Pant ,
Founder of Timeless Lifeskills
Foundation, UK.
