Jaya Shankar Academy

Jaya Shankar Academy is over at House No 9-39/1 in Dilsukh Nagar. We are right beside the Megha Theater. It is a very easy spot to find because everyone knows where the theater is. The area is always buzzing with people, especially in the evening. Our building is an older one. The stairs are a bit narrow, so you have to be careful when two people are passing each other. We have a few rooms where we conduct our sessions. There are old fans on the ceiling that make a bit of a clicking sound, but they keep the air moving. We have a small table at the front where we keep a register for people to sign in. It’s a very basic operation. We don’t have fancy carpets or glass walls. It’s mostly just white walls and wooden furniture. The 500060 area of Hyderabad is where we have always been. Sometimes we hear the movies playing next door if the sound is turned up high, but usually, it's fine. We know the shopkeepers nearby, and they know us. It feels like we are part of the local street. We don't have a big marketing team or anything like that. It’s just us doing our work and helping out the students who come by. It’s a bit dusty because of the road, but we sweep it every morning before anyone arrives.
