Abdul from 8th grade, who resides in an orphanage, was initially very quiet and hesitant to participate in class activities. With consistent encouragement and the creation of a safe space, he gradually gained confidence, began reading in class, and even participated in a theatre mime performance. He said “I like to attend your sessions Didi and enjoy participating in it. You give me confidence to speak and don’t fear to talk in your session.” This progress highlights his growing self-expression and confidence.

My name is Aliza. I am in Grade 3 A. I like coming to ER because we do many fun activities. My favorite was the mime activity. Didi made groups, and we acted without talking. It was very funny to watch my friends and also fun to act myself. I enjoyed it a lot and I want to do it again.

Pehlay Akshar has brought a visible change in our students. Children who were once hesitant to speak in English are now more confident, expressive, and eager to participate. The activity-based sessions, theatre practices, and cultural platforms like Spotlight have helped students improve their pronunciation, voice modulation, and overall communication skills. What truly stands out is how the program nurtures confidence, teamwork, and self-belief alongside academics. We are grateful for Pehlay Akshar’s consistent support and meaningful engagement with our students.

My students truly enjoy the sessions, and the use of the ERW Box assets has made a remarkable difference for different types of learners. I can see how effectively it engages them and supports their learning. I would only suggest increasing the frequency of the classes or reducing the gap between sessions, as the children look forward to them with great enthusiasm.
