Alumni Connect #1: With Surbhi Bhambri

Hey Everybody!



I always believed that time and distance cannot prevent you from connecting with people. I also believe that students are more open to learning from their seniors than from their parents and teachers. Thats what set me thinking about catching up with our alumni and connecting them with my current students. But school schedule does not always allow for time, or alumni are located away from the city or the country. Connecting in real time using Google Hangouts on Air is the way to go...



Here is how my conversation went with my ex-student Surbhi Bhambri. Do watch. And do go back and connect with yours.

You could even interview a subject expert to enrich your student's learning experience!

Any other ideas for Livestreaming/Hangouts On Air? Share them in the comments section below!

Guest Post: Experience at Seven Hills School, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

The school where I teach takes staff enrichment very seriously. We are given different opportunities to gain training and experiences to improve ourselves as professionals. One such programme is the teacher exchange between Sanskriti School and Seven Hills School. We've had many fruitful exchanges with teachers from both schools visiting each other's country, school and homes.

I will stop here now and let you hear it from my guest, Roopali Arora, who visited Seven Hills this May, and let her share with us what she learned. Perhaps you and I can pick up ideas for our own schools and classes.
