My mother has always been fond of learning, she loved going to school and was always eager to learn and understand new topics in her life. But due to family responsibilities, she had to leave her education to tend household needs. She sacrificed her education to make sure we had an easy life and her wish has always been that we attain an excellent education.

My school days experiences are also one of the most memorable phases of my life. When I look back at those days smile automatically comes on my face. Teachers there were kind, supportive, humble and always motivating to thrive towards academic excellence. Their support made learning easier and fun. Their method of teaching was very effective not just to me but the entire class. Our teacher delivered the subject content in a simple yet unique way.

They are the kind of teachers, I aspire to be during my Fellowship. I want to teach children maths by not just concentrating on formulas and problem solving, but with the help of figures and objects and connecting it with real life examples.

I want to use my engineering educational background from Advanced College of Engineering and Management not just to teach math, but also create a change in grass root level of Nepalese society. I want to undertake opportunities to transform the rural areas by using my engineering degree to provide support to make their everyday life easier.

After my Fellowship, I plan to pursue Masters degree abroad and I believe the experience I gain during my Fellowship will be very valuable for me in my studies as well as to represent my country in an international platform.
