Ananda Mentors

Teaching does not guarantee learning. That's why Ananda Mentors do not teach. All one needs is a sound understanding of how children grow. The desire to "teach" usually arises from our not believing in a child's creative instinct and the inborn capacity to make sense of the world out of personal experiences. They're smart enough, they'll learn. We just have to point them in the right direction.

Technology
Technology overused can become technology abused. Where do we draw the line for dependence of learning on technology?

On a trip to the local zoological garden, your child might carry a digital camera to document the day to take pictures of what is there. Back at school they use the documented material to reflect and write in their "own " reports.

Technology is of much greater significance in promoting parent-mentor-learner joy. We rely on it for a robust school administration. You will be able to keep track of your child's progress using the school's website. And of course for those of you who are believers of e-mail, each Ananda mentor is only a click away..
