 Interview with Ms. Rinku Kumari: Passion for Teaching and Classroom Joy 
RP: Why did you choose to become a teacher?
RKI: I chose to become a teacher because I truly enjoy teaching, especially beginners. I love spending time with children, and their respect, innocence, and way of speaking inspire me. Teaching gives me happiness and a chance to guide young minds meaningfully.
RP: How do you handle students who don't pay attention in class?
RKI: I handle them by first helping them sit properly and focus. Then, I give tasks and activities to keep them engaged. This helps them concentrate better and encourages active participation.
RP: Can you share a memorable moment from your teaching career?
RKI: One of my most memorable moments was our picnic to the Jain temple in Ranakpur. It was my first trip with The Fabindia School. Spending time with colleagues and students, sharing fun activities, and experiencing the beautiful place made it unforgettable.
RP: What classroom rules and rewards have you found effective?
RKI: Small rewards work best. When I give students a "Good girl" or "Good boy" badge, they feel proud and motivated. Writing "Superstars" in their notebook makes them happy, too. I don’t believe in strict rules; instead, I guide them to respect themselves, friends, and everyone around, creating a positive learning environment.
