I am proud of you - The Sindhupalchowk Diary



I am proud of you





It’s been more than 3 weeks of SMGS. It was getting any positive feedback yet. It was the fourth weekly test. I entered Grade 6 with test papers on my hand. I distributed the papers. I was expecting the “Sir, please give us marks” dialogue.

None of the 20 students gave me the dialogue this time. They were excited to see the comments this time. Not everyone loved the Smiley idea yet but I was glad few were accepting it. Those who got L last time but got J this time knew they had improved. They felt successful.


Aryan is an average student from Grade 9. This time, he improved a lot. I commented,
Much improvement than last time. If you study harder, you can do much better than this. I am proud of you.”
I hoped he would understand that I meant it and was proud of him.

Let your kids know, you are always proud of them, every small improvement they make matters to you. Kids are used to being discouraged by teachers as well as their parents for low marks. Hardly, any teacher values a student’s feelings. Don’t be a RobotTeacher to them. Be a person. Be someone who understands and values their feelings.

Timi Uta Ma Yeta (Sunsaan Raat Ma) Guitar Chords - Pratik Gurung Cover - Original by Milan Newar, Rajan Raj Shiwakoti

 I came across this song when Kanden Limbu sang this in Nepal Idol.  He was one of the contestants. I thought it was his original. Surprisingly, it is not. His was based on Pratik Gurung's cover. This is actually a full fledge song with a music video. Here's the original one. However, I like the cover version. Here are the chords for a portion of the song. The chords are based on this tutorial . In the tutorial, plucking is used. You can strum as well if that's what you prefer.  CAPO: 2nd fret STRUMMING: D-DU Plucking used: 5-2-3 (C and Am), 4-2-3 (FT and GT), 6-2-3 (G) Chords: C, Am, G Major, F Major Triad (FT), G Major Triad (GT) NOTE: It's easier if you play G Major in C's original position; just move 2 and 3 fingers one step up.   C                             Am (Sunsan raat ma yo mero aatma FT               GT    C Chasakka bi...
