It was a very enriching experience to work under Anita Verma Ma'am in my first job — you remain my first and best Principal. You played a massive role in training me in a variety of areas like content delivery, classroom management, work ethics, mentoring students and professionalism at the workplace. You always ensured that I grow as an educator in all aspects. Special thanks for grooming me in dealing with the girl child as it is very crucial for me being a male teacher working in an only-girls' school.For someone who took to teaching at 45, who knew nothing about academics and wasn't a qualified teacher — you became her messiah, her mentor, her inspiration. You introduced her to Life Skills and motivated her to create her own teaching style through activities, story-telling, public speaking and creative thinking. You initiated her into teaching Environmental Science, Social Studies and even Biology, erasing her apprehension with your words: "Arti, you have a B.Ed in your heart." You saw a spark she didn't know she had — and at an inter-school debate, your guidance helped Swaminarayan Vidyapith bag the Championship Trophy. I, Arti Vyas, shall remain inspired always — by my mentor and motivator.Dr. Anita Verma Ma'am helped me discover a great deal of creativity within myself. Working with her and following her counsel gave me real confidence in my ability to achieve my objectives — she moulded me with her extensive experience, and I am grateful that she still does. Her belief in my skills, strength and capability inspired me to be more assured in my accomplishments. Her mentorship was never limited to the organisation we shared; it continued well beyond it. Her guidance has always been a quiet motivation for me to pursue what I want, with patience. I am proud to be a learner under such a leader — a true role model and an inspiration for my aspirations. It is a great honour to have you as a mentor in my life.I am not only blessed but honoured to have Dr. Anita Verma as my mentor. She chiselled my professional personality to ensure multidimensional growth in me as an academician, a leader and a team-builder. Her cross-functional, visionary approach and her expertise in curriculum design gave a strong foundation to two renowned institutes — and I have been fortunate to be part of both. I learnt from her how life skills and value education can be woven into the curriculum to cater to every kind of learner; her deep insight into differentiated learning patterns is rare. She is positivity personified — inspiring students, teachers, admin staff and the entire school team to take pride in their profession. She has empowered many girl-students who are now making their mark in professions across the globe. Her legacy continues through the many educational leaders she has shaped. It is my proud privilege to be one of them.My association with Ma'am, Dr. Anita Verma, began in 2003. It is no exaggeration to say I consider her my Guru — instrumental in laying the strong foundation that has allowed me to emerge as a leader in the field of Education today. Her strengths span Curriculum Development, Women Empowerment, Teacher Training, and Guidance & Counselling. She has always been compassionate towards every individual, making a profound impact in shaping their lives. May she continue to inspire many more in the times to come.Dr. Verma is not only one of the finest academicians — extremely instrumental in conducting workshops and webinars for teachers, students and education leaders — but also among the very best at designing content, resources and modules that have helped countless learners and educators. Teachers and students love clicking selfies with her after the sessions. 💕 I immensely thank Ma'am for all the support and learning throughout my 16+ years in the education industry.Anita Ma'am was my principal at Shanti Asiatic School for all four years I studied there. Her office was always open, and she entrusted me with being Head Boy — helping me trust myself in that role. She believes in leading students to fulfil their potential, even when they aren't yet sure of it themselves. Her understanding that education is not limited to scholastic pursuits but overall development is an attitude still missing from the education scene in India.← swipe →
