Madhavamandiram and Garden Gate

When I was a kid I used to study in the Madhavamandiram School in Sholinghur.

It was during my first grade I had Mohan Sir as my class teacher. He used to
Teach maily Tamil and Maths to us.

It used to be a class of 50 people. Basically the teaching methodology is one
for all. I mean one instruction for all. Whether you are able to grasp the
knowledge or not.

Right now my daughter studies in garden gate school in cupertino. Karla Daw is
her class teacher. The one difference that I could see is the difference in
teaching.

She basically adopts the concept of teaching whatever the child can grasp.
Not a one for all teaching method. I found this is good for the children,
so that they can cope up with the knowledge level.

I thought I will take this opportunity to comment on the same.
