I was merely 5/6 years old and the first time I got to know that I may have pronounced something incorrectly when our milkman asked me where I would go that day because I was all dressed up. I don’t remember what I said exactly but strangely after that day he used to ask me […]
A bunch of Ducks!
The pandemic has taught us a lot of lessons. One big lesson is, we can make things happen virtually. This year, TISA took that challenge and planned our most awaited event- the National Conference entirely virtual. After a lot of planning, discussions and rehearsals- we pulled it out very well. The 5 days of NC […]
शिकायत किसलिए?
मैं शिक्षा विभाग में काम करता हूं और दिव्यांग बच्चों को पढ़ाना मेरे काम का हिस्सा है। कोरोना महामारी के प्रकोप के चलते सभी स्कूल पिछले 6 महीने से बंद हैं। इसलिए सरकार ने ‘‘मेरा घर, मेरा विद्यालय अभियान’’ चलाया है। इसके तहत शिक्षक बच्चों के घर पर जाकर पढ़ाते हैं। मैं भी दिव्यांग बच्चों […]
What have we learned? – (हमने क्या सीखा?)
What have we learned? Experts on Change management in Industry believe that only “learning” organizations survive the rapid technological developments in the world today. Organizations which quickly read the signs (“on the wall”), spot the opportunity (“in the challenge”), and are comfortable with uncertainty, do the best in these times. TISA in its own small […]
Stammering in front of a 10 year old
Yesterday I went to a friend’s place where I met a 10-year-old kid. We started talking and he told me his name and school and which book he is currently reading. It was Harry Potter and the philosopher’s stone. I now experience that when I was talking to him, I was trying not to stammer. […]
NC 2020 : मिथक को तोड़ते स्वयं सहायता के प्रयोग
मैं हर साल तीसा द्वारा आयोजित होने वाली नेशनल कान्फ्रेन्स का बड़ी ही बेसब्री से इंतजार करता हूं। इस बार 2020 में भी मुझे उम्मीद थी कि किसी नए शहर में जाने का, नए लोगों से मिलने और हकलाहट के कुछ अनछुए पहलुओं को समझने का मौका मिलेगा। मार्च 2020 में कोरोना महामारी के कारण […]

Ab kisi baat ka afsos nahi
Long Journey, Short Distance
The Breaking Point I still remember the day, It was a sunny afternoon. I went to a clinic and I wasn’t able to utter my name in front of the doctor, instead, I made many facial expressions in front of him. The doctor seems to have never seen a PWS in live, he […]

Hangout Feedback from Krishiv

Confidence boosting: Hosting hangouts sessions at The Indian Stammering Association gives one the confidence in public speaking and leadership in front of an audience of 10-15 members. Leadership: As a host, you are a leader who takes in charge of making sure our fellow PWS get an opportunity to […]

I recall in my childhood; grandmother taught me to eat with the right hand. At that time, I realized, there […]

In stead of writing letters with “Sadar Pranam etc.”, we are exchanging sms on the move and checking our phones with a frenetic urgency, bordering on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Where is the time for volunteering? But wait. Let me share with you, how […]

The Inspirational Life Story of Manasi Kulkarni
As human beings, we often look obsessively towards famous and highly-celebrated individuals as sources of inspiration, while neglecting completely that we are often surrounded by worthy albeit unsung heroes all around us. In this vein, it is my pleasure to bring to light the story of Mrs Manasi Kulkarni. At the age of 6, Mrs […]
