Tamhankar Classes

Tamhankar Classes is located in Koregaon Park, right at the Koregaon Park Chowk. The address is in Vidyut Nagar, on North Main Roads. It’s a pretty famous part of Pune, 411001. Even though the neighborhood is known for being trendy, our place is very basic. We don't have air conditioning or fancy lounge areas. It’s just classrooms with wooden benches and plenty of notebooks. We’ve been here for several years now. The traffic at the chowk can be quite loud, especially in the afternoons, but once you’re inside, it’s not too bad. We spend our days mostly grading papers and talking to the students who stay back to ask questions. I usually bring my lunch from home and eat it at the main desk. It's a small team here, just a few of us who have lived in Pune our whole lives. We don't use any complicated systems for enrollment. You just come in, write your name in the register, and start your classes. It’s a very straightforward way of running things. We don't have a marketing budget or anything like that. Most people find us because they live nearby or their older siblings came here years ago. It’s a bit old-fashioned, but it works for us and the families here. Sometimes we run out of chalk, and I have to run to the store across the street. We just keep going, day after day.
