I like the way our teachers taught us. They don't just make study easier for us but also very fun to understand, which is very much required for our growing personality & bright future. I remember the day when we were asked to do a power point presentation in a group, at first we were nervous but the way our teaches support us it was really a very knowledgeable & fun experience, the poster making, the personality test activities, were also so much memorable experience for us as till date we remember it with full of joy. I like the way the department focuses not only on the studies but also the student grasp the knowledge with fun & interesting way, hence its a memorable experience to be part of it.

Psychology is such a rare subject in India & it's difficult to give it recognition. It's not an easy task. I remember our teacher saying that though Psychology is started in Western countries, it's not necessary it should applied there only. Also Personally, I believe Mental Health is a taboo in our country. We need to focus now, "If not now, then when?". During Pandemic many people saw and released what is mental health. So It's my fortune that, I can pursue Psychology out of Mumbai. Also, I'm grateful that our teacher tries to uplift the activities for Psychology department.
