Arihant Study Centre

We are located on the second floor of Sheetal Plaza. It’s right on the main Ajwa Road. If you know where Mahavir Hall is, we are just a short walk from there. It’s a busy part of Vadodara, so there’s always something going on outside. The stairs up to 201 can be a bit of a climb if you’re carrying a lot of books, but the students don’t seem to mind. I’ve been working here for some time now and it feels like home. The rooms aren't huge, but they fit enough desks for everyone. We try to keep things organized, though papers always seem to pile up on the corners of the tables. Usually, the morning is quiet and then the afternoon gets noisy when the school day ends. We just focus on the books and the exams that the kids have coming up. I spend a lot of time checking schedules and making sure there’s enough chalk or markers for the day. Sometimes the tea stall downstairs is where we go when we need a break. It’s a very local spot. People from all over Ajwa Road come by. We don’t do anything too complicated, just sit down with the students and go over their notes. The light in the afternoon hits the front windows quite strongly. It’s just a regular study place where we try to get things done without making a big fuss about it.
