Review for Pardada Pardadi Educational Society, New Delhi, , India

Rating: 4 stars  

This is my third time volunteering at the school. I came in July through August of 2006 and again in January of 2008. I would not have come back this time in August of 2010, if I did not enjoy my previous experiences. (I will be here until November of 2010). The past two times, I taught softball, English, how to use the computers, and self-defense. This time, I am again teaching softball, but I am also writing English lesson plans and procedures regarding how the school is operated (ex. hiring and firing of teachers, safety, student records). The only criticism I would make regarding the school is the method of teaching (rote memorization). I think it is better for the students to learn for comprehension as opposed to memorization. When I come to the school, I have been trying to change the teaching strategy. All in all, I have enjoyed my experience at Pardada Pardadi Educational Society, and I would recommend other people to volunteer at the school. I will definitely be coming back to the school many more times after I am finished this time.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

seeing girls obtain jobs and seeing and purchasing the finished products made by the organization
