Do you think it's worth taking AI related courses? Has anyone taken such courses? Currently, I am using chatgpt, gemini, co-pilot and notebook lm for different purposes.

Little Angels’ School, Hattiban – One of the WORST EXPERIENCE

(We hope someone convey this message to School and Mr Umesh Shrestha )

It was a difficult decision for us to write this, and we have deliberately shared it only after the admission season is over. Our intention is not to discourage or influence anyone’s decision, but simply to present the experience we went through as parents.

We enrolled our daughter in Class One at Little Angels’ School, Hattiban after she completed her Montessori education. Like many parents, we believed that enrolling her in a reputed institution would ensure holistic development, strong academic support, and exposure to extracurricular activities.

Unfortunately, our experience was the complete opposite.

Instead of growth, we observed a decline in our child’s confidence and enthusiasm. A child who once enjoyed learning began resisting school every morning. She started believing she was a “weak student.” When a child begins to feel inadequate at such an early age, it affects not just academics, but overall personality and confidence.

Within just 20 days of joining, we received a call from the school where a teacher said, “Your daughter cannot even copy from the board; it has become difficult for us to teach her.”

This was deeply concerning. If teaching a child who is still adapting is considered “difficult,” then what is the role of a teacher? A child transitioning from a Montessori environment to a traditional classroom naturally needs time, patience, and guidance—not labeling.

We also observed a pattern of favoritism—where attention seemed to be directed primarily toward already high-performing students, while others were overlooked. Additionally, teachers often discussed a child’s shortcomings in front of the child and parents, which can be damaging to a child’s self-esteem.

Another concern was accessibility. Meeting the coordinator or principal felt unnecessarily difficult. As parents, open communication is essential, especially during early schooling years.

There were also basic care issues. Many days, our child returned home in a condition that raised serious questions—untidy uniform, torn stockings, unkempt hair, and generally neglected appearance. For a school of this scale, we expected proper supervision and support staff to ensure basic student care.

The most distressing incident was when our child returned home with completely soaked stockings because she had urinated on herself at school. No one informed us. No one changed her. Her feet were damp, wrinkled, and uncomfortable after staying that way for hours. This is not just negligence—it reflects a serious lack of basic care for young children.

Due to repeated concerns and fear that frequent complaints might negatively impact our child further, we often chose to remain silent and compromise. However, there comes a point when silence is no longer an option.

Eventually, we made the decision to withdraw our child from the school. This came at a significant financial loss, as we had already paid the full year’s fees in advance. But more importantly, the emotional and developmental impact on our child was far more concerning than any monetary loss.

While sharing this, we sincerely hope the school reflects and improves. A large number of students or a strong brand name alone does not define the quality of education. True quality lies in how each child is treated, nurtured, and supported—especially those who need a little more patience and care.

We hope no other child has to go through a similar experience.

Little Angels’ School, Hattiban – हाम्रो नराम्रो अनुभव

यो लेख्न हामीलाई सजिलो निर्णय थिएन। हामीले यो कुरा जानाजानी भर्ना प्रक्रिया सकिएपछि मात्र शेयर गरेका हौं। हाम्रो उद्देश्य कसैलाई उक्साउने वा कसैलाई यो स्कूल नछान्न भन्नु होइन, हामीले अभिभावकको रूपमा भोगेको अनुभव मात्र बाँड्न चाहेका हौं।

हाम्रो छोरीले Montessori पूरा गरेपछि हामीले उनलाई Little Angels’ School, Hattiban मा कक्षा १ मा भर्ना गर्यौं। धेरै अभिभावकजस्तै, हामीलाई पनि ठुलो नाम भएको स्कूलमा राख्दा बच्चाको समग्र विकास हुन्छ, पढाइ राम्रो हुन्छ र अतिरिक्त गतिविधिहरूमा पनि राम्रो exposure पाउँछ भन्ने विश्वास थियो।

दुर्भाग्यवश, हाम्रो अनुभव त्यसको बिल्कुल उल्टो भयो।

बढ्नु पर्ने ठाउँमा हाम्रो छोरीको आत्मविश्वास र उत्साह घट्दै गयो। पहिले रमाएर पढ्ने बच्चा हरेक बिहान स्कूल जान मान्दिन भन्न थालिन्। आफूलाई “कमजोर विद्यार्थी” भनेर सोच्न थालिन्। यति सानो उमेरमा बच्चाले आफूलाई कमजोर ठान्न थालेपछि त्यसले पढाइ मात्र होइन, उसको व्यक्तित्व र आत्मविश्वासमै असर गर्छ।

भर्ना भएको करिब २० दिनमै हामीलाई स्कूलबाट फोन आयो, जहाँ शिक्षकले भन्नुभयो, “तपाईंको छोरीले बोर्डबाट सार्न पनि सक्दैन, हामीलाई पढाउन गाह्रो भयो।”

यो कुरा निकै चिन्ताजनक थियो। यदि सिक्दै गरेको बच्चालाई पढाउन “गाह्रो” लाग्छ भने शिक्षकको भूमिका के हो? Montessori बाट परम्परागत स्कूलमा गएको बच्चालाई समय, धैर्य र मार्गदर्शन चाहिन्छ, ट्याग लगाउने होइन।

हामीले अर्को कुरा पनि देख्यौं—जसले पहिले नै राम्रो गर्छन्, उनीहरूतिर बढी ध्यान जाने, अरू बच्चाहरू भने बेवास्ता हुने। साथै, शिक्षकहरूले बच्चाको कमजोरी बच्चाकै अगाडि र अभिभावकको अगाडि नै भन्नु पनि राम्रो अभ्यास होइन। यसले बच्चाको आत्मसम्मानमा नराम्रो असर पार्छ।

अर्को समस्या पहुँचको थियो। Coordinator वा Principal सँग भेट्न निकै गाह्रो भयो। यस्तो अवस्थामा अभिभावक र स्कूलबीच खुला संवाद हुनु अत्यन्त जरुरी हुन्छ।

बेसिक हेरचाहमा पनि समस्या देखियो। धेरै दिन हाम्रो बच्चा घर फर्किँदा उसको अवस्था हेर्दा चिन्ता लाग्ने हुन्थ्यो—लुगा सफा नभएको, stocking च्यातिएको, कपाल मिलेको नभएको, समग्रमा राम्रो हेरचाह नभएको जस्तो देखिन्थ्यो। यति ठुलो स्कूलमा साना बच्चाहरूको हेरचाहका लागि राम्रो व्यवस्था हुनुपर्ने हो भन्ने हाम्रो अपेक्षा थियो।

सबैभन्दा दुखद घटना भनेको, एक दिन हाम्रो छोरीले स्कूलमै पिसाब गरेकी रहिछन् र त्यो stocking नै भिजेको अवस्थामा घर आइन्। कसैले हामीलाई जानकारी दिएन, कसैले उनलाई change गराएन। लामो समय भिजेको कारण खुट्टा भिजेको र चाउरिएको अवस्थामा थियो। यो सानो कुरा होइन, साना बच्चाको हेरचाहमा गम्भीर कमजोरी देखिन्छ।

यी सबै कुराहरू हुँदाहुँदै पनि, बारम्बार गुनासो गर्दा हाम्रो बच्चामाथि असर पर्ला कि भन्ने डरले हामी धेरै कुरा सहेर बसेका थियौं। तर एक समय यस्तो आउँछ जहाँ चुप लागेर बस्न सकिँदैन।

अन्ततः, हामीले हाम्रो छोरीलाई त्यो स्कूलबाट निकाल्ने निर्णय गर्यौं। यसमा आर्थिक नोक्सानी पनि भयो, किनकि हामीले पूरा वर्षको शुल्क अगाडि नै तिरेका थियौं। तर त्योभन्दा ठूलो नोक्सानी हाम्रो बच्चाको मानसिक अवस्था र विकासमा परेको असर थियो।

यो कुरा शेयर गर्दा हाम्रो आशा छ—स्कूलले यी कुराहरूलाई गम्भीर रूपमा लिएर सुधार गर्नेछ। धेरै विद्यार्थी हुनु वा ठूलो नाम हुनु मात्रले राम्रो शिक्षा भएको हुँदैन। साँचो गुणस्तर भनेको हरेक बच्चालाई कसरी हेरिन्छ, बुझिन्छ र सहयोग गरिन्छ भन्ने कुरामा हुन्छ—विशेष गरी अलि बढी समय र ध्यान चाहिने बच्चाहरूका लागि।

हाम्रो जस्तो अनुभव अरू कुनै बच्चाले भोग्न नपरोस् भन्ने हाम्रो चाहना हो।
