Hi All;
My own daughter has come to 1st std. Just now, I
realized one strange phenomena with her education. We Indians communicate
generally in our mother tounge, then in Hindi and lastly in English if
required. So our children generally knows his/her mother tongue fluently, but
HINDI and English need to be learned. Now in current scenario of English medium
craze (I am also included), see the strange
thing here: She can;
Gujarati : Mother tongue, can speak very well, but can’t
read it or identify a single word.
Hind: A subject comes in 1st std, can speak
little bit and can’t identify the words in hindi
English: since she is in English medium (a mistake), she can’t
speak English at all, but can identify all the 26 alphabets.
What a confusing situation, just wondering what happens to
little brain of my child, so I am not pressurizing her for marks or force her
to learn everything immediately. She will surely learn at some mature age. Also
instructed my wife the same thing and let little one flow in her own way,
anything she likes. Seriously, will not do this mistake again for future one,
letting him/her be in Gujarati medium only.
