Akshaya from class nine in a government school in Narsimhulapet village. Before attending STEM classes she had stage fright and she was underconfident. Initially she wasn’t a good performer in the STEM classes. She learned many things while attending regular STEM sessions and this helped her build confidence slowly. Now she is able to participate in many group discussions which are conducted in the school about many different topics like the pandemic, village based issues and about the environment. Her friends and teachers were impressed by her performance. She has participated actively in every activity from STEM. She also motivates her friends to do STEM related work regularly.  Even virtually she has done an excellent group task about surveys. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]
