Testimonials

My son has been attending Soumi's workshop for the last four years. My child has consistently said that her workshops are fun and at the same time enriching. All her workshops make the children think and express themselves in their own quintessence voice. He is delighted to imbibe some very useful writing skills which have helped him in his expression both academically and personally. Her last few interdisciplinary workshops are extremely unique, well researched, and helped the children connect different subjects to explore a concept. I feel it is the need of the hour. We need creative, intelligent and empathetic educators like her.

t needs unique skills and mindset to find "poetry in science" and "science in poetry". Soumi, is one of the few such talented and creative individuals who possesses that uniqueness. The workshop she had curated and successfully conducted has all the elements to tie the knot between the two fields. The final outcome by the kids, mentored by Soumi speaks for itself about the creativity, artistry and execution. I am sure, this workshop and her endeavour will reach the height they deserve. As for my daughter, Tanisha, whom Soumi mentored in this workshop told me that the entire experience was very enriching and exciting!

It has been a fun and intriguing experience for me. I learnt how poetry and Science have deep connections and interesting forms of poetry can be created with science topics. I shall continue to use these tips and strategies in my writing.

I loved exploring science - black holes, whales and fossils were interesting ideas. And looking at them through poetic lens was thought provoking. It definitely made me think.
