Oasis Character Building Movement
Feedbacks from Participants

As part of Character building movement, Oasis organised Basic course of Oasis workshops for professionals at Rajkot & Ahmedabad during July-August, 2009. Edited feedbacks from participants in their own words...

Before the workshop I wished to do something in my life or achieve something but was not able to decide the direction. The workshop has helped me to think and decide "Where do I want to go?"

  Housewife,
  Ahmedabad

The workshop is a great booster for defining the destination of life in the best possible manner. The program is designed so as to recharge any person, to align him again to his priorities & to march on towards his ambition/goal.

While this program is certainly useful in our daily lives, overall it also works towards promoting character and development of humanity.

- Vitthalbhai Patel,
  Project Consultant,   Ahmedabad

 

Life before and after this workshop has a lot of positive changes. The vision of my life ahead has become clearer now and the workshop has added a new force to my life.

Through my positive thoughts, I will be able to inspire my students in a better way for going ahead in their lives.

- Minal Ganatra
  Lecturer, Rajkot

 

The workshop is very useful in visualizing true values of life and enjoying life as God's gift.

- Haresh Tank,
  SBI, Rajkot

"This is one of the most memorable occasions of my life.”

There will be major change in my behaviour with my children, relatives, friends etc. I expect lot of better results in my life due to better understanding and positive thinking.

- Kishor Ghoghari,
  Entrepreneur
  Ahmedabad

The workshop helped to change the negative feelings, thoughts & my attitude towards people and situation.

We generally evaluate situations from one side only. After attending the workshop I learnt to evaluate the situation or my belief system after listening to the opposite person.

Facilitator of Teachers' Training shares her experience
Teaching is the best way of Learning...

Prernaben Shah, a homemaker from Bangalore and an active member of Oasis-Asha project, conducted Teachers Training Session for 50 Teachers of Rural Taluka Schools at Mysore on 11th July, 2009.

The Mysore session has helped me a lot in many ways. First of all it was a completely new exposure and an eye opener one.

In front of me there were 50 learned, educated teachers, so I was quite afraid and concerned too about this big responsibility.

But all my fear washed away within few minutes, when I stood in front of them.

My confidence level has touched a new sky, where today I am ready to face the entire world. My hesitation for speaking in public has vanished away.

I feel that I could have managed the entire session by myself though my teammate Mr. Gangappa was my biggest moral support there.

Not to forget - without Nehaben's convincing power to go ahead and

Manishaben's full support which can not be mentioned in words.

Without this kind of platform given by Oasis, somewhere I feel that I wouldn't have been able to come out of my shell. My family members especially my husband gave me lot of support for this.

I once again thank Oasis ASHA for this opportunity.

- Prernaben Shah
