Shaba

My family lived in Garhi Pukhta a small town in Muzzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh; a town only few people know. After my birth they moved to Delhi to give me a life worth living. I belong to the muslim community where more often than not, a girls education is no considered a priority. But I consider myself very lucky. I have always known what I want to do. My dream has always been to become a teacher. Which is why after finishing my 12th standard exams I decided to pursue a Diploma in Elementary Education and I have also passed the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET).

My plan is to pursue a career as a teacher. This will provide me with the opportunity to mould young and healthy minds. But my work won't stop there. I also want to make education accessible to the underprivileged population in our country as they struggle everyday to sustain their families. I want to be part of a system that works towards a welfare state and make my parents proud.
