Determination Tuition Center

The desks here get a bit dusty if we don't wipe them every single morning, mostly because of all the traffic near the Main Market in Kailash Colony. We spend a lot of time at S17 just getting things ready before the students show up after their regular school hours. It’s a busy spot. You can hear the noise from the street sometimes, but once the fans are on and everyone is looking at their books, it stays pretty quiet inside. Determination Tuition Center isn't a fancy place with marble floors or anything like that. We have wooden chairs, whiteboards that sometimes stain, and stacks of paper everywhere. My tea usually goes cold before I get to finish it because someone always has a question about a math problem or some grammar rule. Living and working around Connaught Place means dealing with the crowds, but it’s just part of the day. We’ve been here for a while now. Most of the parents know where we are because of the landmark shops nearby. It’s just us doing the work, day in and day out. Sometimes the lights flicker when the weather is bad, but we just keep going. It’s not about being the biggest center in the city. We just have this one space where we sit and go through lessons together. Most days, I’m just tidying up the registers or making sure there’s enough chalk. It’s a simple life here at S17, just focusing on what’s on the page.
