Dear Mam,
As a temporary platform for teaching, I am really satisfied as I can see how my child is learning and understand the teachers’ perspectives as well.
I would like to thank the teachers for all the effort they are taking to help the children as it is not an easy task. This is like a 24 hour Job for them.
Thank you so much for everything that you all are doing to help the children.
God Bless!!!
Sincerely Yours,
Patricia
Thank you for contacting me for feedback. We found it very helpful and systematic. It gives the students a great opportunity to keep up with the teaching and assignments. The PowerPoint presentations are impressive and my child feels more connected now than before ( contrary to what we feared).
Thank you to all the teachers and support team for the hard work that is going behind the screen
Regards

Dear Ashima Maam,
We as parents are happy with the online classes. It has instilled some kind of discipline in their day. My daughter looks forward to her classes. The teachers are doing such a wonderful job. I am grateful to Akash Sir, Robert Sir, you, and all the middle school teachers. A special mention about the Kannada teachers whose personal touch is heartwarming.
Thank you and God bless

Dear Ashima Maam,
Greetings!
Roopali ma’am had co-ordinated with me today and my daughter Ryssa has completed her retest in Chemistry.
Thank you for your prompt, assuring response and for making a decision on this.
I also take this opportunity to commend the teachers and the management for the ongoing online classes. While it is proceeding seamlessly, we are aware that a lot of effort goes into the planning and conducting of these classes.
The children are really happy and constantly engaged.
Wishing you all the very best!
Best Regards,

Dear Akash, Robert, and the Bethany management,
At the outset, we as a family would like to acknowledge and appreciate Bethany’s leadership during these critical times. While the world at large is struggling to come to terms with the pandemic, it’s so refreshing to see how the Bethany management has responded to the crisis. The communication has been timely given the huge confusion on new guidelines from the Government.
You have been very clear that the children’s safety comes first and we fully support the management on that. Your decision to resume online classes for a few hours each day is a much welcome step, keeping the balance between online learning and screen time. While these are hard choices to make, there being no prior benchmarks to compare with, you have introduced new benchmarks in the care and concern for children and their families. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. The experience on MS Teams has been seamless for the children and parents. Thank you for all the efforts to roll out this learning platform for the children.
To the teachers- being teachers ourselves, we understand the pains of serving without being appreciated. Moreover, having to learn online skills in such a short span of time is truly commendable. Our children would not be who they are if not for the commitment that teachers at Bethany have displayed. This note is to say thank you for your love and support, more so during these times. Please share this with the larger body of teachers and their families.
Our deepest gratitude to the support staff at Bethany for their stellar support during these times.
May the Lord continue to give each of you wisdom, grace, and strength in the days ahead. Continue to keep the flag flying high!
The entire Bethany family continues in our prayers. “With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness and your every deed prompted by faith.”
2 Thessalonians 1:11
Thank you and many blessings!

Dear All,
We express our heartfelt gratitude for allowing Yohann to continue classes even after leaving the school. We wish to stop classes now as Yohann has got admission to Creek Valley Middle School in Dallas and the school has started virtual classes.
A big thank you to the entire Bethany team, especially Mrs. Ashima Kalra who has always been supportive and helpful. Yohann has had a strong foundation at Bethany and we are grateful to his class teacher Mrs. Sangeetha Joseph, all his class teachers through the years, subject teachers, and staff.
Our children were immensely blessed at Bethany and will miss being a part of it.
We pray that God continues to bless all the Bethany Institutions even as you help build better individuals.
Warm regards,

Dear Ashima ma’am,
This is Kiran, father of K. Sri Purvi from Class 6-A. Right from the beginning of this academic year, when everything in this world was unsettled and rattled, the teachers at middle school have been compassionate, calm yet driven throughout.
My daughter, who came across as a shy student in her primary years has garnered a lot of confidence and she has been able to speak up and express herself during the online classes. The teachers were forthcoming and patiently clarified all her doubts.
While the individual projects helped her in focusing upon the core concepts, the group projects not only helped her in recognizing her strengths but also nudged her to fight her weaknesses. As a team leader, when her teams’ efforts were appreciated by her teachers, she got a clear idea about her capabilities as a leader. This very confidence has propelled her in becoming a B.S.O. I truly appreciate her class teacher and Darell House’s teachers for recognizing her strengths and encouraging her.
As a proud Bethanite myself, I know that my school stands for all-round development of all the students. My child has developed her interpersonal skills as well as intra-personal skills during this challenging year.
I owe her future success to you all teachers!
A proud Bethanite and a father,

Dear Kanchan Maam,
Thank you for being so adaptive in your teaching during these tough times. Teaching is a selfless profession that requires a lot of sacrifices. Double it up with a pandemic and the task is almost impossible. Thank you for letting us parents breathe easily. Arjun has always liked teachers who are assertive and not aggressive. You are definitely one of his favorite teachers. Thank you for giving him valuable advice and guiding him.
You and the entire teaching staff at Bethany are the true “Superheroes”
Thank you again. Stay safe and stay blessed!

Dear Mam,
Teachers around the world have faced great challenges this year. Online schooling was only a grand idea a year ago. We take this opportunity to thank the Management and the teachers of Bethany Pre Primary Department and Middle school for having provided wonderful online classes. We appreciate the effort taken by the teachers in making such wonderful ppt’s, videos, etc, and having made the classes so engaging, meaningful, and interesting.
Congratulations to you all for having ensured a successful year of learning.
Our sincere appreciation to Ms. Josephine Francis (Jr1 B) for her dedicated efforts and the entire Pre Primary Teachers for their videos.
We also appreciate greatly the efforts taken by the teachers of class 7E (Ms. Sangeetha Joseph, Ms. Roopali, Ms. Manju, Ms. Sophia, Mr. Chalapathy, and Ms. Sapna) in organizing some really awesome classes. Great work at Bethany High.
Thanks and regards

Every parent conveyed their greatest appreciation for the work and commitment of the Teachers. They said that they would have never made it through these challenging times without the hard work and support of the teachers. Thank you Mallika Ma’am, Tech Team and my dear Teachers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Dear Teachers,
I would like to thank each and everyone of the teachers of Std. 9 for your dedication, sincerity, and untiring effort this year in the midst of the most unusual circumstances. The detailed notes, the educative online classes, the assemblies, the revisions, guidance, and so much more, are a testimony to your commitment. The students at Bethany are indeed lucky and blessed to have such wonderful teachers.

Dear Santosh Sir and Madhu Ma’am,
Thank you for your time yesterday at the PTM. I would like to sincerely thank all the teachers of Bethany High, especially the Teachers of Grade 9 who have taught our children, from the bottom of my heart, for all the effort that they have taken to teach our children during this difficult time of Covid – 19 with 100% dedication and commitment.

Dear Ma’am,
The Valedictory was a wonderful event and we enjoyed it virtually. Thanks to you and all teachers for all the efforts. Also, wish to especially thank you for all that you have been to our daughter Ananiah. Ananiah says that without Surekha Ma’am I would have failed in maths. I think I mentioned to you last year once, that you have made such an impact on our child that she now wishes to pursue maths in her academic career. Ananiah and both of us are ever grateful to you for all your special efforts, support, and wishes. We pray that God continues to bless and use you in this noble vocation you have chosen. Keep touching lives.
Thanks again,

Hello ma’am this is Aminah’s mother here sorry my paternal granny expired so I could not make it. Thank you for being a truly outstanding teacher. Your passion and dedication towards your students are obvious for which we are very grateful to u Maam. You showed all care and understanding and patience that you had when kids were unable to login when they had network issues and all sorts of things in this pandemic. Thank you for everything you have done. 🙏
Hello ma’am
This is Shaza’s mother as Shaza was unwell I had to take her to the doctor so I missed being there for the open house.. I am so sorry for that and ma’am it was a great pleasure having u as her class teacher and u teachers have put in a great effort this year and made our children come up in their studies.. thank you ma’am and l hope to have Shaza in good hands in future as she was with u …

Dear teachers,
I want to appreciate and thank you all for the great work you are doing. You have transitioned smoothly to virtual teaching making sure learning doesn’t stop in this time of uncertainty. Being an educator myself know that it’s not an easy job. A big shout out to all the teachers at Bethany for a wonderful beginning!!
Best,

We agree Madam. You have written wonderfully. Nothing can replace personal interaction and classroom atmosphere. A school not only gives education but also builds the personality of the student. Online classes can at best fill a little bit and they can never replace a live class. We pray that a vaccine will be found and the school will reopen soon. We have already missed the road run and sports day. We pray that things will become better soon. We are also thankful for the teachers for putting a lot of efforts into the.. online classes and helping the students
Just sharing our views. Parents of Ayush.
Thank you, 🙏 dear Yasmin Mam and all the teachers for making this possible for our children. Really appreciate it.
Thank you, ma’am. We are truly indebted to you teachers and the school for all you have done for the kids this year. I have to say I admire how you all and the children have adapted to this new medium. Definitely want to get back to seeing everyone, playing, and interacting.
Thank u dear teachers and school, no words to thank & express for the efforts put in by u management. We r truly blessed, first time for both, still so so perfect. Awesome & kudos to each one of u associated with this, it’s successful 🙏🏻
🙏🙏🙏thank you, Ma’am. Let’s pray that things will get better soon. Thank you teachers for your love and support. Happy weekend.
Thank you, Ma’am! Appreciate all that the teachers have done to make this easy and exciting for the children. I also realize that these groups have helped build a better connection with you as their class teacher – an empathetic and consistent one.

As a new parent of high school, reopening of school on the first day by online classes was definitely not the way I wanted it. But saying that I must say I have no regrets it started that way.
As a professional myself, adhering to new ways has been so hard that to just one to one. And here you have teachers reaching out to 30-40 students through a screen. I give each of you the highest respect for what you do. I have been eavesdropping on a few classes and must say, the teaching is beyond what I imagined.
Ppts, videos, games…the pains taken are definitely beyond what I expected. So patiently answering children, clarifying doubts. Every teacher has been playing their part with excellence. Bethany has set its standards really high.
Proud to say I am a part of the Bethany family. God bless each of you with the best. Stay safe.
You, teachers, are doing such an amazing job.. Truly commendable.
So proud that we are associated with all of you.. The pain you all take to make sure every child submit the paper is truly appreciated. Thank you so much. God bless

Dear Sir/Ma’am,
This is Rupa Sen Ghosh, mother of Aditya Ghosh of standard 10 B. I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for the wonderful yet very challenging academic year 2020-2021. Amidst this pandemic when the world came to a standstill you as a team continued to provide education and support to all the children of this school. Switching over to a new method, teaching through a new device was not easy but the wonderful teachers of Bethany made the transition so smooth that soon the children made themselves comfortable with the “new normal”. Always kind, always supportive, always willing to extend that hand when needed, the teachers wiped away the word “impossible” from the dictionary. From regular classes to exams to holding assemblies and competitions the students had everything from the safety of their homes. The sudden fear, anxiety, and the insecurity that had seeped in their tender minds with this pandemic soon evaporated and they had an eventful, fun-filled academic year.
I wish each one of you the best for the new session too and at the same time pray that the school opens soon so that our kids who have a few more months before their Board Exam can again go back to the ever-positive, ever-warm campus of Bethany High.
Thanking everyone once again.
With warm regards,
Rupa Sen Ghosh
Dearest Malika Maam,
A year went by so fast. It was like moving from the unknown to the known. Never thought the year would go so smoothly. I am so grateful to all the teachers who have made this transition for Kevin from middle school to high school so comfortable. Every teacher has played their part so well, it was not just studies, it was about everyday things too.
I would first like to thank Usha ma’am who is an exceptional Hindi teacher. She made my son love Hindi again. She makes the language so easy to follow.
Madhu maam has been an inspiration. Never realized Shakespeare could be a household topic of discussion.Its such a joy to see his excitement in English class.
Chris Sir has been a perfect mentor, someone Kevin really looks upto. He has a way with the boys and that makes him different.
Sophie Maam has been his teacher previously and seeing her in high school was his biggest joy. She is an exceptional and dedicated teacher.
Latha Maam is an awesome Chemistry teacher and I am so glad I finally learnt the subject through my son, thanks to her.
Ramya Maam is an excellent physics teacher and fun loving. She makes the class so lighthearted.
Rehana maam is a teacher who not only taught the subject but also inculcated a lot of values in him.
Suja maam made Geography a likable subject. She makes her class a comfortable place for everyone.
Sreeparna maam is someone who I admire the most, she brought out the love of art in my son which I have been trying for so many years.
It’s been a rollercoaster ride for each of them, I am sure but they carried it out with a lot of grace and charm. It’s been an absolute blessing to have them in Kev’s life. Haven’t personally met all of them but always indebted to them for their effort and smooth sailing of this hard year. Thank you so much to each of you. Looking forward to meeting each of you personally very soon. God bless.
Always,
Deepa
Dearest Malika Ma’am
I’ve had a wonderful time in standard 8, but I wouldn’t have had such a wonderful time without the guidance of my dear teachers. I wasn’t sure how the online classes would be but it turned out to be awesome, and it was only because of the teachers below.
Usha Ma’am (Hindi) – Made understanding hindi like understanding english and taught us so many morals.
Madhu Ma’am (English) – Made it one of my favourite subjects.
Sophie Ma’am (Biology) – Always kept biology my favourite subject.
Rehana Ma’am (History) – made history a very interesting story.
Suja Ma’am (Geography) – made me realize why geogrphical features existed.
Ramya Ma’am (Physics) – Made understanding difficult concept’s easy.
Latha Ma’am (Chemistry) – made chemistry as easy as ABC’s.
Chris Sir (Maths) – Helped make maths fun.
A big thank you to all of you. Looking foward to seeing all of you in the next academic year.
Loads of love,
Kevin Ryan Hu

Hope and Encouragement is a very special thing, an invaluable treasure I personally consider it.
They are the only lights that help us go through the dark, without any scientific evidence of when the darkness will end.
Each time you send such messages, I just silently thank God for having you in our kids lives. Your words are so beautifully portrayed that it will not allow any child to get diverted in any wrong direction, no matter what the situation is.
These constant support is beyond the standard duties and it only shows how much personally dedicated you are to our kids.
Thank you so much for being such a wonderful person and a committed teacher.
Needless to say you are an effortlessly natural writer – https://old.bethanyinstitutions.edu.in/life-in-the-high-school-department-by-yasmin-celestine-sengupta/

Your children are absolutely connected, and that is purely because of all the efforts from you and virtual events. No one noticed that we are just few months away from the academic year end and no child stepped into a class room yet. Yet they are all completing their syllabus, giving their exams and chatting, arguing, smiling… nothing changed.

If Yasmin maam can be their class teacher till 12th, we the parents can escape all our parental worries. 😅

But it all seemed so impossible at the start … thank you once again for bringing the normalcy in these tough times.

Feedback on online classes conducted in
April 2020- High School
. online classes were carried out systematically and helped us to resume
learning even during this global pandemic.
This shows us how learning is not “confined to the classroom”. Despite the absence of face-to-face interaction with our teachers, we were able to cope well with the lessons.
There was a good coordination among both students and teachers which made the online session successful.
The PowerPoint presentation by the teachers was very helpful,especially with respect to subjects like Biology and Geography, where the visuals contributed to better understanding and learning.
I liked how the online classes were a two-way interaction(as opposed to recorded classes) due to which we were able to clarify doubts easily.
For the next session, I would suggest all teachers to make it compulsory for the students to switch on their cameras during the classes to ensure that they are present and listening. This would also prevent any outsiders from joining the class and causing disturbance.
I also suggest trying other online conference apps and software, such as Google Meet, as the Zoom app doesn’t respond at times even with full connection(according to my personal experience).
The online classes were properly regulated and prevented our learning process from slowing down under the current circumstances. I think it was successful,and also a new experience for all of us.
Deepthanshu👆🏽
Personally, I found the online classes very effective. The teachers did a really good job of explaining the material through PowerPoint presentations and made it easy for us to understand. However I felt like the zoom app was not very secure. People with usernames like ‘HACKER’ joined our chat and were playing music and disturbing the class. This happened even though the meetings were private and the meeting ids were changed for every class. Overall, the teachers did a very good job but I was not very happy with the zoom app.
Sara👆🏽
Ma’am the online classes are useful.
Your PowerPoint presentation is helpful as it highlighted the key points.
Ma’am one suggestion would be to make everyone turn on their cameras and let it remain on throughout the class and the teachers should remove those who switch off the camera and disturb the class.
The teachers can make the class more interactive by asking questions.
It would be helpful if the material is shared at the end of class.
Thank you ma’am.
Nikhil👆🏽
“I actually enjoyed online classes as the teachers were able to explain with comprehensible clips and pictures which helped in understanding the chapter”
“Though there were problems in communication it still provided a clear picture of what we were supposed to learn”
Mitra👆🏽

The online classes went smoothly thanks to the effort put in by the teachers
The teaching went smoothly and the classes were interactive just like how it would be at school
I could understand all the concepts taught very well and my time was spent productively while lessening the burden which would have otherwise pressured us when the school reopened
It was a wonderful experience
Thank you
Our school has always been there to support us and bring out the best in all
situations. This attitude hasn’t waivered even in it’s handling of the pandemic.
Hats off to the school in taking the required measures for our safety by preponing
the holidays, while making sure we receive the adequate academic support for
being able to write our upcoming ICSE board examinations.
I am extremely grateful to all my teachers for conducting the online classes
even in the middle of all their work at home, especially during the lockdown when
there were no helping hands available. The online classes made this lockdown a
lot less boring for all us students and helped us utilize our time more productively.
Though school classes would always be preferred, in my opinion, certain classes
were better understood by me because of the ppts and other media used.
Computer classes for instance were amazing where we saw the program being
executed simultaneously as we are learning them. In Geography and Biology
classes the content was really more comprehensive because of ma’ams’
wonderful ppts. In History and English classes our teachers immediately answered
our doubts. Our history teacher was able to share so much more information by
immediately showing us the answers on the internet. English classes were more
fun as she shared links and even shared the details of the TV programs where
they were discussing specifically on English for ICSE Xth board. In Mathematics,
Physics and Chemistry classes our teachers were able to solve all our doubts by
using their digital whiteboards. They were able to explain with the help of ppts.
I am really thankful to the management of our school, who thought about
us and I am indebted to our brilliant hardworking teacher’s initiative to continue
teaching us and helping us use our time productively during the Corona
pandemic. I’m sure we all are grateful for being this privileged. Our heartfelt
thanks to all you teachers and the school management for being so concerned.
The online classes were the only things keeping us to remain focused during this
difficult time. Later, when we recall this pandemic in the middle of all the sad
events that we will remember, these classes will be the happiest memory flashing
Thank you my dear teachers.
ADVANTAGES
Classroom engagement
Dynamic learning
Instructional depth
More family time
Reduce costs
Increased student time
Disadvantages
Technical difficulties may occur( lack of Internet )
IMPROVEMENTS
When all the participants are on mute when the speaker is talking( will increase the clarity of the speaker )
Use a good Authoring tool ( a PC, IPAD, etc)
Choosing online courses that do not require much internal memory( eg: Microsoft Teams)
Sir everything was good.
The classes were smooth n I did not find any difference between learning in a class n learning online
I felt that in case we use microsoft teams anybody can admit the people who join and cause a problem that is any person might allow his/her frnd who can creates a nuisance
But in zoom only the host can control the entry of the others
I do not know whether we have the same option in teams of the control of participants
The year 2020 has been different so far with the Corona virus and everything from meeting friends to classrooms have become digital.
In these unprecedented and uncertain times, our teachers have stepped up and made sure our education wasnt affected.
Since 1 april ..our teachers have bought our education to us thru another platform.
Online learning was a different experience.
Fr all of us here, i feel tht the teacher student interaction was better during online classes and due to Pdfs n slideshows, we were able to catch up on our notes anytime we require.
The only thing tht i would like to change would be to make it compulsory to turn on the camera’s as tht instill a sense of discipline.

Current situation, students were informed that classes would resume online and studies would be continued which were left abruptly in March . Although the method of teaching through online classes was very new and different for all, the teachers helped us to get accustomed to it by visual learning. The power point presentations were helpful for us to understand the concept and also the fact Bethany adapted to this type of learning so quickly was well appreciated by all with time being efficiently utilised.
It is my sincere suggestion that teachers would take strict attendance as it was observed in a few classes that the number of students were not up to the class strength. It would help if the topics were revised and discussed slower, with more interaction. Also to be made clear to students to login few minutes beforehand in order to not waste any time .
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
Rithika Kurkimat
Zoom online classes were a very new concept for students and especially teachers.A concept which seemed very difficult to comprehend and understand intially. Since we are in the 10th grade we were worried whether this system would actually benefit our learning and understanding.We started off with Mathemtaics taken by Smitha ma’am on 30th March and then gradually moved into subjects like Physics taken by Padampriya ma’am ,Chemistry taken by Bala ma’am, History/civics taken by Annie ma’am,English taken by Serene ma’am ,Biology taken by Archana ma’am and Geography taken by Jayshree ma’am which eventually ended on April 30th.
The entire one month experience was intriguing and very helpful.The explanations of the teachers had the same enthusiasm and eagerness which we experienced in class.Most of our teachers prepared PPt’s which helped us to understand better and visualise our concepts in the form of videos and images which usually does not happen very often in school.
The only drawbacks were the interuptions that we faced during certain classes.In order to prevent this I would request that the teachers strictly inform the children that they must ensure that throughout the class their videos are switched on and if they are having any inconveniences in doing so,one must give a prior notice to the teachers by asking their parents to inform the teacher personally.On behalf of all the students of Std 10 we really appreciate and admire the effort that our beloved teachers have taken in making this experience a worthy and memorable one.We would really appreciate it if these online classes would continue during the time of lockdown for the coming months.
Thanking You.
Yours sincerely,
Khushi S Shetty

Dear Akash,
Zeena and I would like to thank ALL at Bethany High for doing an amazing job in these very trying,difficult and uncertain times.
We know how difficult and challenging it was for Zeena and I to keep our kids occupied during the initial days of the lock down.These poor souls have to suffer because of our follies.
We thank one and all for the effort they have put in to start the on line classes. Both our girls are so happy doing the classes, they also love the interaction with the teachers and friends, not to mention that they are eagerly looking forward to attend school.
At times it must be very hard on the staff dealing with parents some motivating and some demotivating but please be assured that many off us parents are standing with you all.
I guess on line studies is going to be the new norm for sometime to come.
Akash, on a personal note if there is any way I can be of help please do let me know.
Our prayers are with you all, may the precious blood of Jesus cover each one of you and your families with his precious blood and the Holy Spirit guide and protect you all.
Thank you and God Bless
Anosh.👍🏼👌🙏🏼

We are very privileged to be associated with Bethany High . Not only academically but socially and mentally Bethany has always supported our children, Abhinav and Shreya M Reddy . If our children have grown up to be good citizens of the country it is because Bethany has taught them a lot of values . We have always been honoured to come across the teachers, students and staff of Bethany as they have always been very humble and cordial to us. The teachers of Bethany have been extremely friendly to our children and have been approachable at all times. We will always be grateful to Bethany which was the second home to our children.

We are Carlin ‘s parents Niranjan and Serena would like to thank Akash sir, Robert sir and the entire staff of Bethany Junior College for the fantastic 2 years Carlin has been part of Bethany . A big shout out in praise for Mr. Pankaj and his team for ensuring that online classes were set to quickly and went on smoothly not interrupting the academic year for the students. Thanks to all the teachers for the extra effort they put in last year during the lockdown to ensure that portions were completed, exams conducted and the year went on flawlessly.
When Avishi joined Bethany, we were excited as well as apprehensive . Excited because we had heard so much good about the school and the faculty. Apprehensive because it would be a new environment for her at a critical stage in her academic journey. 2 years passed by so quickly. While the pandemic stole from the kids the bonding and fun of high school, the teachers and management of Bethany ensured that the kids did not loose out on the academics. Your commitment to the student’s development is phenomenal and we thank you for that.

Dear Madam,
This is Jagathpreethy, Parent of Thushara R Shenoi, an, outgoing student of grade 12.
I write this mail to express my deepest gratitude and endless appreciation for all the teachers at Bethany Junior College.
Two years back, when we decided to send our daughter to Bethany, it was with a lot of excitement, expectations and at the same time with lots of anxiety. Anxiety of whether she would be able to adjust here, will the teachers be approachable, will she make new friends, and so on . But as the days passed, all our anxieties vanished. It was as if she found a new home. The teachers were so friendly yet strict when needed, the best gang of classmates, so widely talented, the best of opportunities a student would wish for. First year at Bethany passed like a few moments, so fast, filled with activities like bakeathon, carnival, and many other events.
Then came the year 2020, the year that turned out to be special in all senses, to the whole world. It brought about another unseen side of Bethany in front of her as well as us. Parents were witnessing the transformation of offline classes to online. The dedication with which the teachers of BJC made this happen is commendable. The teachers never made the children feel that they were not in college.
The extent to which teachers have gone to keep the spirit of learning high is unimaginable. I have seen how Ms. Leena Jose Martin, the economics teacher , who was out of station due to some medical emergency, made sure her classes were never missed. She took all the pain of taking classes from the remote place, from the hospital, just for the betterment of her students. She is one among the whole team of teachers lead by Ms. Angeline, who dedicated themselves to encourage and help the students in their learning .
Salutes to all the teachers- Ms. Sunitha, Ms. Aruna , Ms Geetha Nittala and Ms Smitha Suresh. The pace at which they have adapted and upgraded themselves with the new technology in teaching is amazing. They have set an example. When my daughter was filling the college application for The Next genius foundation, all of them provided her with all the support, encouragement and required documents. It was such an enriching experience for her. Now my daughter is feeling so sad that her days at Bethany are coming to an end.
At this point, I wish to thank the Management of Bethany from the bottom of my heart, for doing everything possible to keep learning unhindered in the hard times.
I thank all the teachers; I know ‘thank you’ is not enough for expressing my gratitude to them for guiding our children and keeping their confidence high in these testing times.
I wish all the graduating students the very best for their future endeavors. They can never go wrong with such great teachers in their life.
Regards,
Jagathpreethy

Dear Michelle mam,
I take this opportunity to thank you for your efforts in bringing Parth to this level. Bethany institution was a dream for Parth before the admission as it is a very famous institution in the neighborhood. For the past two years we are experiencing the same. First I would like to thank Mr. Ryall and family for building a strong foundation. Teachers are the main pillars of success of any educational institution. You are chosen meticulously and I as a parent can vouch for the same. Special thanks to Angie Ma’am for her continuous support. She took extra steps to help Parth. I am so grateful to her. Thank you once again.

Even through these difficult times, the teachers have risen to the challenge and conducted online classes successfully. Our daughter Sakshi has grown to her full potential with the help of her teachers, who have been helpful and encouraging. We truly appreciate the effort of all members of staff.

I would like to thank the all teachers of junior college for all the love and care extended to all the children. I would like to thank HOD Angie Ma’am and Michelle ma’am for their support and the efforts they have done for my daughter. Overall I feel very happy and fortunate that my daughter got to be part of the Bethany family. 🙏
Bethany’s management n teachers have always been supportive, patient, friendly, and approachable. The school has played a big role by embedding good life values in both my daughters. ☺️

Bethany has always been a second home to Sahana.
We put Sahaana in Bethany not just for the extremely good faculty but also for the joyous environment.
Sahana always enjoyed every activity hosted by Bethany, right from class assembly to tuck shop.
Bethany also had the concept of decorating the bulletin board, which was a very interesting and fun-filled activity for the kids.
Bethany junior college, 11th and 12th was the best. She was provided with lot of opportunities and personal attention was given to her by every teacher.
I as a parent would say that BJC had the most qualified teachers.
More than teacher they were mentors.
Thanks to Bethany for these amazing 13 years.
And yes; I would say that BJC is the best place for self-development and for students to prepare themselves to face the bigger world.
