Malineni Lakshmaiah B Ed College

Our college is situated in Singarayakonda, right in the Prakasam district of Andhra Pradesh. It’s a place where we train future teachers. Malineni Lakshmaiah B Ed College has been around for a while, and we’ve seen many people come through these doors to get their B.Ed degrees. The town of Singarayakonda is a nice place to live and work. It’s not too loud, which helps when you’re trying to study. Our building is pretty standard for the area. Inside, you’ll find classrooms filled with desks and chalkboards. We spend our days teaching the methods of education. It’s funny because we are teachers teaching people how to be teachers. There is a lot of discussion in the halls about lesson plans and classroom management. We have a small library that stays quite busy during the afternoons. The staff here are mostly locals who have been in education for years. We don’t have fancy air conditioning in every room, so we rely on the breeze coming through the windows. It’s a practical environment. People from all over the district come here because they know we are steady. We don't do much in terms of advertising; people just find us through word of mouth. It’s a lot of reading and practicing for the students. We’re just happy to be providing this service in our corner of Andhra Pradesh. The days are long, but we feel like we’re doing something useful for the community. We stay busy with the paperwork and the practical exams.
