Hi!

Hi All

Do you agree with the following:

• Current schooling system makes students literate but not educated
• Academic toppers in schools don't necessarily get the best out of life
• Our system doesn't encourage original/creative thinking
• Even good students succumb to pressures and commit suicides or develop tendency to depression
• Critical things such as leadership, dealing with failures, dealing with emotions is not taught at school
• Report card focus has crippled the young thought process
• There is hardly any fun in the learning process

If you agree with any or all of the following, then join us in our effort to create a fun/workable solution for imparting life skills to young students in government schools. 

This blog is aimed at people who are interested in being a part of an initiative that we now call "Skills for Life". The idea to start this blog was to create a forum where continuous thought sharing, updates on the initiative and reaching out to all people interested or associated becomes easier and faster. I had put up the following poster on Facebook a few days ago:

You Never Forget That One Teacher

Responses have poured in since then. We are glad to have so many people interested in this initiative. We now have educators, young school and college students, groups, working professionals all associated and working on this thought.

And we apologize to all those who haven't received a timely response to their queries.

But through this blog, all of you will receive continuous updates on the initiatives and together we can figure out a workable solution and a start to solving what is a critical problem with our ailing  education system.
