My feedback to Suneeta in an email message

Dear Suneeta,

I've been trying to connect to the children for half an hour with no luck. I know that things are ok on my end of the line, because I tried connections with other people.

I even checked the weather in Hyderabad to see if there might be a storm. No. I took a screenshot and tried sending it to the children, but they didn't accept it. There must be some major problem on their side. What a shame! :-(

I'm attaching the weather file just for curiosity.

Please let me know if there are connection problems with other mentors.

It's 10:05 and they just tried calling me. My video is working but I don't hear them and they aren't writing either. They just tried a thrid time, but nothing on their side. They don't even answer my text messages.

Now they're writing! :-) No sound from them though. They haven't said if they hear me. They asked me to wait 5 mins. :-)

After this, they were able to see me, but there was no sound for either side, so we stopped the session, also because I needed to go.

Hugs, Teresa

Suneeta's reply

Dear Teresa,

As your email quite clearly shoes, its a matter of staying power! Just when we think nothing is going to happen.... it does! the steps forward are tiny ones and some times take forever in coming.

Some of the other mediators have also mentioned some difficulties at MAIM/MAIG. I will be going there later this morning and will have the technician check it out.

I hope to be online from another SOLE in Hyderabad itself at the time of your session tomorrow, but hope to speak to the children who come to your session when I visit the school.

Take care,

Suneeta
