In the words of Aashika -

“I have always enjoyed teaching, and during the pandemic I wanted to give back to my community in some way. I was working on a few art projects and decided to offer free art lessons online to kids in my local community to provide them a creative outlet during the downtime.

It was very well received by the parents who wanted to engage their kids in a constructive ways and also help them learn/hone a skill. I conducted art classes online during the summer and continued the lessons through the end of the year. I was amazed at the interest and diligence the kids showed, and their eagerness to learn something new.”
