Hello! Welcome to Jotter Book :)

I’m Gayathrii, an English/General Paper, Literature and History teacher. Over the past ten years, I’ve heard students worry about not being enough - not fast enough, not good enough, not clever enough.

Having freelanced for so long, I’ve often wondered how I can help more students than the few who come my way. Not because I’m some genius who’s better than everyone. Rather, it’s the opposite. I wasn’t a very good or confident student either.

I took forever to figure out that, the truth is, we are constantly shaped and reshaped according to life’s ebbs and flows.

We fill with our notes, a little bit more, each time. We go back to our Jotter Books.

Jotter Book is

• a challenge against the false universalism that progress is linear.

• a reminder that when we feel stuck, it is not because we’re terrible at life, it is simply because we are human.

• a reassurance that it is okay to head back to the drawing board as often as we need to.
