 Facilities I received while conducting workshops
 ------------------------------------------------
 
-Places which were quit far from my town has provided travelling allowance to
-me. Which I took because it I felt there is nothing wrong in taking that. Some
-colleges arranged afternoon meal for me. I happy accepted that becuase finding
-other option during short brack at unknown place is quit time consuming. There
-were few colleges which gave cash cover as good will from their side. That I 
-never decided to accept in my life. The reason I don't take money from any
-educational institute is they sometimes devide that fee to number of students
-attending workshop. I don't feel right to take money from the pocket of any 
-students. Still some college claimed they are giving from their grants and
-not taking anything from students. I took that money and donated each to
-"arranged Krishna Vrudhashram"][krishna_vrudhashram]

-Materials used
+The colleges which were settled far from my town provided a travelling allowance
+for me. Which I accepted because I felt there is nothing wrong in taking such
+help. Some colleges arranged an afternoon meal for me. I happily accepted that
+because finding another option during short breaks at unknown place is quite
+time consuming. There were few colleges which gave cash covers as a good will.
+That I never decided to accept in my lifespan.  The reason I don’t accept
+money from any educational institute is they sometimes charge students for
+raising that money.  I don’t feel good to take money from the pocket of any
+student. Still some college claimed that the money belongs to their grants and
+not raised from students. I took that money at that time and donated each to
+[Krishna Vrudhashram](http://www.krishnavriddhashram.org/) located at
+Gandhinagar, Gujarat.
+
+
+Python Express
 --------------
 
-* Slides
+Such contributions would have not possible without Python Express. Python
+Express is a platform to collaborate colleges, students with Python tutors
+across India. It is supervised and funded by the [Python Software Society of
+India](https://pssi.org.in/).
 
-* Python Kit
 
-* Excercises
+### Python Express Ahmedabad
 
-* Books used
+At present, we have a Python Express Ahmedabad group whose motive is to teach
+Python to nearby colleges. We are linked up with
+[Telegram Messenger](https://telegram.org/). During this PyCon, I got a large
+bunch of Python Express stickers from Vijay sir. The stickers will be a lot to
+motivate pupils. We also received Python Express volunteer T-shirts. If you are
+living nearby Ahmedabad and want to contribute to this movement, please touch
+me over email.
 
-Goodies received
------------------
 
-During this PyCon, I received large bunch of Python Express stickers from
-Vijay sir. It will help me to motivate students. I received Python Express
-T shirts for each of us.
+**"Teaching is the best way to learn."**
+----------------------------------------
+
+I am inspired from curious questions raised by scholars. They forced me to
+plunge deep into the subject. It was little difficult to afford such a huge
+hours with having a full time job, but after observing my personal
+improvements I consider this as a good investment.
 
-My experience
--------------
-I want to conclude my experience with only one sentence. **Teaching is the
-best way to learn.**
+In summary, I took 1 workshop every month during the year 2016 which is nearly
+90% more than what I did in the year 2015.
 
+You can download [Slides here](https://goo.gl/vTBhTh) and
+[Python Kit here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_TmiicGbqjHb2ZGcE5QYmtXRHc/view?usp=sharing).
