SUCCESS STORY
I am Nibha Kumari, I am studying in Class 8 at KGBV Chanho, Ranchi. Today I am very proud of myself because I am able to write and speak in English. Earlier I was very weak in English and used to shy away from my English teacher. But then BKS started its special classes on Spoken English and I started attending it. In the first few classes I found it difficult to understand. But thanks to the teacher, he encouraged me and slowly I was able to pick up his lessons. Now I can speak and write good English. For this I am very grateful to BKS and Save The Children
