* Describe a great learning experience you had as a child. | * '''Describe a great learning experience you had as a child.''' | ||
When I was child, most of my learning was because the games(chinese checkers, scribble, puzzles, etc) I used to play my at my school. Since I am pretty good at geometry, my teacher being impressed with my skills once asked me to help her teach other students to draw different geometrical figures using basic tools like-compass, protractor, divider and set-squares. It made me feel really nice helping others with their learning. I owe my logical thinking to the games I used to play when I was a kid. | When I was child, most of my learning was because the games(chinese checkers, scribble, puzzles, etc) I used to play my at my school.

I am pretty good at taking up challenging tasks(I introduced some cool features in Sugar that have been requested since a long time ;)) which seem difficult to others. After the completion of my project I would like to continue with my work on adding keyboard accessibility to Journal and download manager improvement in Browse. I am also planning to write an API (as suggested by Mr.Sam Parkinson) to extend keyboard accessibility to Sugar which would help kids to operate Sugar even without a mouse or some other pointing device. I would also like to mentor a student in GCI 2017 for Sugarlabs. | I am pretty good at taking up challenging tasks(I introduced some cool features in Sugar that have been requested since a long time ;)) which seem difficult to others.
