Jignesh Upadhyay Academy

Jignesh Upadhyay Academy is in the Indraprasth Complex, unit number 112. We are located right at Uma Char Rasta on Vaghodia Road. Being near the SBI ATM is very helpful because everyone knows that spot. Karelibaug is a busy part of Vadodara, and the traffic at the crossroads can be quite a lot during rush hour. Our office is on the first floor, and it’s a standard commercial space. We have some desks for the staff and then the bigger rooms for the teaching. The walls have a few posters but mostly they are just plain. We have a water cooler in the corner which is very popular during the summer. The complex itself is quite old, so the stairs are a bit narrow. We’ve been operating from this location for some time. There are always people coming and going because of the ATM and the other shops nearby. We don’t have a big fancy waiting lounge, just a few plastic chairs for parents. We spend our days checking papers and talking to the kids about their progress. It’s a straightforward setup without any bells and whistles. We usually have the radio on in the background during lunch breaks. It feels like a second home to us since we are here more than we are at our own houses. The routine doesn't change much from one week to the next, which is fine by us.
