I am Saloni Jindal, graduate in Bachelor of Elementary Education from Shyama Prasad Mukherjee College in Delhi University. I feel fortunate enough to get admission in Shyama Prasad Mukherjee College for pursuing this reputed course. With the blessings, guidance and constant support of my beloved lecturers, family and friends, I secured 1st Rank in first,second & fourth year of graduation in the college and also secured Delhi University Rank which are as follows; 4th rank in first year and 2nd rank in second year of graduation. Securing these positions would not be possible without the efforts of lecturers in our college. Be it their reading material, teaching technique and different ways of making us understand the topics, each and every thing was out of box and highly creative. With their guidance and support, I am creating this platform with the objective of helping and making available to my fellows and juniors, the reading material given to me by my lecturers and various other notes and content relevant for the course.
