At 8 years old, Punam started as a strong student and quickly went to being very mediocre… with a strong disbelief in education.
Where were her parents? Why didn’t they step in and say anything?
As a first generation Indian American, her parents didn't understand that in America, you can actually go and talk to the teachers and administrators unlike in India where teachers are so highly regarded and you don't disagree with them.
This is why Punam Saxena, a pioneer in bridging the gap between parents and teachers and today’s ETV guest, decided her mission in life was to change the trajectory of someone else's life so they didn’t have to go through what she went through.
