Creative Writing
“Every Tuesday and Thursday morning, I’d wake up earlier than usual to attend the class. If it weren’t for this class, my sleep schedule would be scattered all over the place. Being able to express thoughts in various prompts is a productive exercise for my mind. Although I wasn’t able to meet the other students in the session, I was able to get a brief understanding of them as an individual, through their writings. Mrs. Mubeen’s enthusiasm passed onto each of us, keeping us engaged. I genuinely appreciate my experience in this workshop. Many ideas have been introduced to me, which I’ll surely incorporate into my life. Thank you for this opportunity."

Psychological Counselling and Behavioural Coaching
“I had a lot of issues in dealing with my husband's loss. Shameer guided and transformed me, and also my relationships with everyone around me and he also pushed me into having a goal of my own. And now today I am seeking my passion and working towards my goal and also in the path of being financially independent. Can't thank him enough. When he told me about his background, I was startled that he was once person who had his own fears and trouble in relationships and he transformed himself and now he is in the journey of transforming people around him in trouble.”

Sara's Transformation - Story Writing
“Before attending this course, sixth-standard student Sara was very shy and reserved. She did not speak to her classmates and did not know how to communicate effectively. She struggled during presentations, and would stumble and forget her words. After attending the storytelling workshop, Sara learned how to overcome her fear and communicate in an effective manner. She learned techniques for storytelling which helped her be more engaging during school presentations. She also improved her vocabulary a lot and learned how to structure a story. Sara’s transformation was made possible only by this storytelling course."
Student's Voice - Creative Writing
“I definitely recommend this course to everyone. Creative writing is a way to express yourself and release your emotions in an abstract manner. Prior to taking this course, I was not good at creative writing. I would struggle to put words on a paper, and often lacked ideas to write about. Furthermore, my vocabulary was weak, and I did not know the proper literary skills to express myself properly. This became apparent to me as a real problem when my English class held a creative writing contest last year. We were given the chance to write about anything we wanted, but I was unable to think of anything to write. I had to search online for ideas and my writing was very poor. I placed at almost the bottom in the contest. I was very disappointed in myself, but this setback was what motivated me to join this course. This course taught me how to generate ideas, as well as helped me improve my vocabulary and literary skills. I am now able to write freely, and enjoy doing so. This course taught me not only the methods of creative writing, but also how to enjoy it. Now, I do creative writing as a hobby, and I am looking forward to the creative writing contest this year to demonstrate my improved creative writing skills!”

Atendee's Voice - Public Speaking (Kids)
“This course really helped me transform my life. Before attending this course, I had a crippling fear of public speaking, which was a great hindrance to me in the corporate world. Presentations and meetings were a nightmare; I would stutter and forget my words. I realized I needed to do something about this problem after an important meeting with a manager went terribly. I was presenting the month’s progress, but I was not able to convey my message properly due to fear. I rushed my words, which caused me to mumble and stutter, and I did not make any eye contact. Because I was not able to communicate properly, I reflected badly on the rest of the team. I realized that my fear of public speaking was a very big problem, and I joined this course hoping I would be able to get some benefit out of it. After attending the course, I am now able to present during meetings without stumbling, and I am able to get my message across effectively. This course has not only helped me in the corporate world, but it has also made me bolder in my day-to-day life as well.”

Student's Voice - Public Speaking (Adult)
“As a current secondary school student, I highly recommend this course to everyone. Prior to taking this course, I was very shy and had a fear of speaking in public. During my science class last year, I had to give a presentation about the topic that we were studying. I understood the topic well, but when I tried to write a speech for the presentation, I was not able to convey what I wanted properly. During the presentation itself, I did not make eye contact with the teacher or my classmates. I rushed through the speech to get it done as soon as possible, and in the process, I stumbled over many words. As a result, neither my audience nor myself gained any benefit from my presentation. I had many points taken off due to my bad presentation skills. I realized that my fear of public speaking was a problem, and I signed up for this course hoping that it would help me get over my fear. Through this course, I learned how to deal with my fear of public speaking. I learned how to communicate in a clear and effective way. Now, I am able to present in front of my teachers and classmates with confidence and clarity. I have not only learned how to speak in public effectively, but I have also learned how to deal with fear and act confidently in all settings.”

Student's Tranformation - Peek a Book - Review Club
“Before attending Peek-A-Book, Shreya, a fifth standard student, was very shy. She had no particular interest in reading; she did not mind it, but it was not her favourite thing to do. She read only when it was required for school, but she found the school books very boring. After attending Peek-A-Book, Shreya’s vocabulary improved greatly, and her interest in reading grew. She had more enthusiasm when completing school assignments that had to do with reading. She also gained more confidence and became more comfortable speaking to others. Now, she eagerly looks forward to the next Peek-A-Book session and enjoys reading one book every week.”

Vinodhini on her transformation - Behavioral Coaching & Psychological Counselling
"I am Vinodhini, 41, Mother of two kids. I lost my husband a year and a half back due to chronic illness. I have never expressed what I want to convey to my husband, as I was brought up that way and the day I lost him was the day the world turned blank for me. My husband was a true companion and soul mate for me. He transformed me. But his demise transformed me again into a negative side. The thought of dying and always getting angry and jealous of others, and many more uncontrollable emotions paused my life and I felt like I have no purpose in life hereafter as I felt like all the love I had in me was over and I couldn't give any more to anyone around me. I was affected by covid amidst these emotions and I was happy I got it as I thought it would take my life away and I will be with my hubby in heaven. What a fool I was, I didn't think about my two gems, my children. The time of covid made my kids so insecure about the thought that they would lose me. I saw it in them and then I decided in myself that I had to survive. When I decided that, destiny and the universe brought me in contact with a person named SHAMEER actually for my elder son as he was behaving differently after his dad expired. He spoke to me the first time, he told me I had to transform and only then my son will. I thought no one can help me get out of this, but there he was like an angelic brother, bringing me out of all my fears, pains, and inhibitions one by one. He not only transformed me but also my relationships with everyone around me and he also pushed me into having a goal of my own. And now today I am seeking my passion and working towards my goal and also on the path of being financially independent. Can't thank him enough."
