    EVERY CHILD IS ESPECIAL

    (Reaction Paper)

    In the movie ‘Every child is special” which is about the boy, Ishaan Awasthi, who was suffering from

    dyslexia and the teacher who changed his life. Ishaan had difficulty in recognizing letters and numbers

    and could hardly read and write. The condition his parents and his teachers had no idea of. Because no

    one understood him, he felt different from the rest. Parents and teachers thought he’s dumb and lazy.

    These gave him a feeling of isolation.

    The kind of relationship we build to the young ones greatly affects how they perceive themselves and

    what they will become. The lack of patience, love and kindness and most especially knowledge of one’s

    physical, intellectual and emotional condition can make one feels unworthy and unwanted.

    In the movie, Ishaan met Mr. Ram Shankar Nikumbh, a substitute art teacher. With his persistence to

    help the young boy, he found out the boy’s condition and so offered extra time to teach him

    in areas he had not mastered yet. For me, the character of Mr. Ram Shankar Nikumbh shows us

    some qualities of a great teacher. A teacher who does not only teach, but inspires as well. A teacher

    who is not afraid to use unique and unconventional ways in teaching his pupils. Furthermore, a teacher

    who exhibits a broad knowledge of Psychology in teaching and using positive approaches

    in dealing and addressing students’ concerns. The teacher’s persistence to truly understand the boy

    changes everything. From a lazy, dumb boy as others thought he was, turned a very smart and

    gifted boy in the end. An artist to remember.

    Oftentimes we are blinded by the strict rules and high standards in meeting academic

    requirements, that, we fail to see the person’s worth. We believe that an under performing child,

    someone who can hardly read and write and demonstrate certain skills and knowledge in the given

    situation is not worth of our time. In my personal point of view, teachers should help a child in every way

    they can. They should look into the child’s potentials as a learner and of what motivates a child and
    what does not. Other than a having a broad knowledge on subject-matter, curriculum and standards,

    teachers must have strong desire to make a difference in the lives of young people.
