Education One

We are located on the 4th floor of the DDA Flats in Madangiri. It is block 5, number 87. Being on the top floor means you have to walk up a few flights of stairs, which can be a bit tiring in the Delhi summer. But once you get up here, it’s a decent enough spot. Education One has been running out of this flat for a bit. It’s a typical government-built apartment, so the rooms are a specific size and everything feels very familiar if you’ve lived in Delhi. We use the main room as the primary office area. There are windows that look out over the rest of the Madangiri area. You can see the rooftops and the clotheslines. It feels very much like a home turned into a workspace. We have computers set up on a couple of tables and a big water cooler in the corner. People who come to see us are usually locals from the south Delhi area. It isn’t a fancy office with a lobby. You just ring the bell and come in. We spend a lot of time on the phone or working on the computer. Sometimes the electricity goes off, and we just sit and wait for the generator or the power to come back. It’s just part of life here. We don't try to be something we aren't, just people working in a flat.
