About Pooja Sharma

Struggle is a part of every individual’s life. But it becomes more evidentand perplexing in a disabled person’s life. I was born as a healthy childand led healthy life till two days before Matriculation exams in13.03.1991. It was very disheartening moment for me being unable tostand, sit or move. I was hospitalized the next day but doctors could notdetect my problem. I returned home after 14 days with same condition.I had lost all senses in lower limbs and urinary catheter had becomepart of my life. After many months of treatment finally I joined schoolagain in October that year. Since then I have studied on tricycle. It has been very hard to study having so many constraints. Regular body aches, weakness in upper limb too have made the journey even more complicated. But the will power and determination to move ahead kept me going. After doing B.A. B.Ed. from my city I did M.A. English fromSCD Government College Ludhiana regularly. It was very challenging togo 55 km away from my house daily and return in the evening. Then Igot govt. job in 2001 and since then I have been teaching while sittingon a tricycle. Then I studied M.Ed., M.A. Sanskrit & M.Phil English through correspondence. I was honored by Deputy Commissioner Nagar thrice in 1997, 2009 and 2020. I was honored by Secretary Education for contributing in online teaching, content development and Root Word of the Day State Project. Recently I am the incharge of English Booster Club at District level. I have written almost 45 articles that have published in local as well abroad in Italy, U.K., USA, England and Germany. Currently I am doing PGCTE from RIE Chandigarh.
