Abstract/Notes: "Years ago in Karachi a bright girl who bothered her teacher with too many questions was punished. Her teacher threw away her exercise book in anger and treated her callously. The little one was not ruffled. She told the teacher: 'One day I'll become a teacher myself... but not your kind.' Now, the same girl, Lakshmi Kripalani, is the general director of the Montessori Center in New Jersey in the U.S. She looks back at that incident as a blessing in disguise. She had been slighted and as a result when she grew up she started a school of her own. When Dr. Maria Montessori visited Karachi she got initiated into The Montessori Method. After partition she was principal of a school in Bombay when she was invited to the U.S. to start a Montessori school. Why she? 'Because I was the only Montessori teacher available at that time,' said Miss Kripalani. In the U.S. she easily became a fried of the children. The sari helped her. 'When the children first saw me in a sari they asked their parents if I was a princess or a bride!' Miss Kripalani is now on a short holiday and she is interested in contacting aspiring Montessori teachers. 'The world needs more teachers who would treat the child as a plant and help it grow.'"
