Kisalaya Educations

You can find us over on Rash Behari Sarani in the Hakimpara area of Siliguri. We are quite close to Hakim Para Balika Vidyalaya, so there are always students walking past our door in their uniforms. The street gets quite lively in the afternoons when the school finally lets out. Our place is tucked into a building that has been standing here for years. It isn't anything spectacular to look at from the sidewalk, just a simple door and a sign. Inside, we have a few rooms set up for our classes. We’ve got the usual stuff you'd expect: desks, some old wooden cupboards full of books, and a wall clock that’s always a few minutes fast. The air in Siliguri can be a bit damp during the rains, so the place sometimes has that specific old paper smell. At Kisalaya Educations, we just get on with the daily tasks. We don't have a big marketing team or anyone to answer the phones with a scripted greeting. Usually, it’s just one of us putting down a pen to talk to whoever walks in the front door. We spend a lot of time drinking tea and looking over math problems or science notes with the students. It’s a quiet kind of work most of the time. The neighborhood is mostly families and small shops, which suits us just fine. We have been here long enough that we know most of the people who walk by every morning.
