Carers Classes

Carers Classes is located in Chandrabhaga Nagar. It’s a quiet enough area of Nagpur, which is nice when you’re trying to teach. The space we have is pretty basic. We’ve got the usual rows of benches and a board that’s seen a lot of use over the years. I’m usually the one who opens the door in the evening. The air can get a bit stuffy if the windows aren’t opened early, so that’s the first thing I do. We don’t have a big staff or a fancy website. Most of our students come from the nearby houses. They walk over after they’ve had their snacks at home. We just sit together and go over their lessons. Sometimes it feels like we are just doing the same things every day, but that’s how learning happens, I guess. It’s about showing up and putting in the time. I spend a lot of time reminding kids to bring their own water bottles because our filter is a bit slow. It’s a very local operation. We know the parents and we know the kids. There isn’t any corporate pressure here. We just want to make sure the students understand what they’re reading. If someone struggles, we just stay a bit longer until they feel okay about the topic. It’s not a big deal. That’s just how we run things here in Chandrabhaga Nagar. It’s simple and it works for us and the families.
