Studies have found that most of the habits you follow religiously in your adulthood are a consequence of your childhood patterns. If you were a reader in childhood, chances are likely that you will become an avid book enthusiast once you are an adult. So it's very important for parents to make sure that a good set of habits are imparted in kids while growing up. But it is obvious that not all children are easy to convince. They have their tantrums and often run away from studies. You can start by just 15 minutes a day and then increase the time gradually. Start with easy comprehensions irrespective of their reading capacity. Try to activate all the senses while making them read. For example if you child is reading a passage make them touch or smell things similar to what they are reading about. If the story is about a flower then bring a flower. Tell them to form mental images of whatever they are reading. This increases the interest of the kids. These methods with persistence are the key to becoming a good reader.

After two years of coronavirus it seems like the trend of studying abroad is back on track. The intensity is not stopping and the number of foreign applicants for study abroad is increasing exponentially. The demand for Canada, USA and the UK is on the surge right now. This is because for the last two years students had been waiting for the borders to open up. Some of these students will be going in their 2nd or 3rd year of the program whereas some might be starting from this year. The United States of America issued a record breaking student visa this year to Indian students. The demand for foreign education is growing annually at a massive rate. This can be because of bandwagon reasons or because of the quest for quality lifestyle and better opportunities.
Many of us aren't able to understand the buzz around studying abroad and why everyone is following the trend like they have lost their own sight. But it's actually more than just a trend and has deeper meaning and consequences to it. Not only it gives you a global overview but also helps in building connections worldwide. Very imperatively it helps you travel the world and see so many things you wouldn't be able to if you choose to study in your own country. Other than that, competition in India for the top universities is very high. Applicants are a lot more than the seats available. Private universities charge heavy fees which are not even worth the investment. Fields like medical and engineering have become suicide streams for students as they aren't able to face the extreme competitiveness. Being really good at studies in your college also doesn't assure if you will get a job or not. The salaries are also very low in India.
As we are towards the 75th Independence day of India, the UK has decided to offer 75 scholarships to Indian students to study in the UK on that occasion. Among these scholarships is the Chevening Scholarship that will cover the first year tuition, living expenses, and travel costs for a master's program in one of the UK' universities. HSBC has collaborated with Chevening to offer 15 scholarships to Indian students. Other sponsors of the scholarship include Pearson India Hindustan Unilever, Duolingo, and Tata Sons. All of them will sponsor scholarships making it 75 in total. The British Council will be offering 18 scholarships.
