Childhood is the age where children are like a flower bud, very sensitive. Children are very smart these days. On 4th June we the students from Grade VIII went to teach dental hygiene to the students of Grade I. It was an amazing experience. The program was conducted by our health teacher, Mr. Kuldeep Gupta. He guided us about what we should do and what we should not. He gave us many ideas to make learning a fun activity and oriented us about how to teach and develop a friendship with students.

In the third period, we went to the respective sections of class one as assigned. I had to go to Grade I 'Manaslu’ with my two friends: Samrat and Sarjan. As we entered the classroom, it felt so good to listen to the little sweet voices of the students. As we started teaching them about dental hygiene they were so eager to learn about it. So they were paying attention to whatever we were saying. They were fully concentrated on things we were talking about. Whenever we asked them questions, they answered promptly. All the grade eight students were shocked to know that the students of grade I were fully aware of what should be done and what should not be done to keep our teeth healthy. The happy faces of those students reflected their inner beauty and their smartness. At the end of the class, they repeated everything we taught them and they thanked us which felt so good.

The experience of teaching had never been bad to me. It has always brought a smile on my face. And this time was a different experience to see the students eagerly trying to learn. This made me realize that “ Today’s readers are for sure tomorrow’s leaders”. It was our good luck to get an opportunity to teach them and was our pleasure to deliver our knowledge to the children.
