Meet woman who lost her father early, earned LLB despite hardships, survived bad marriage, today she runs prestigious coaching centre, she is...
New Delhi: India is very proud of its daughters as they have made it proud on the local as well as international stage. Whatever the domain, from science to education, and arts to sports, they have proved their mettle. Many of them were not privileged to have things served on a platter, hence they fought at every single step and made space for themselves. Ultimately, they emerged victorious. The woman we are going to talk about today is one such strong woman of substance, who proved her grit against all odds. She is a famous English teacher, Neetu Singh, popularly known as Neetu Ma'am. Who is Neetu Singh, aka Neetu Ma'am? Neetu Singh, popularly known as Neetu Ma'am, is a famous English teacher who has drawn a lot of attention due to her professional as well as personal life. She faced a lot of problems in her life due to the circumstances. After the death of her father, people close to her family pressured her mother to send her to a girls' school. However, her mother ensured the best education for her and got her admitted to Delhi University for higher education. Neetu Ma'am is a symbol of resilience, strength, and mental toughness. She is incredibly successful today, but her journey has had its share of struggles, betrayals, and accomplishments. What was Neetu Ma'am's childhood like? Neetu Ma'am was born in Giridih, Jharkhand. She was only three when her father, Kishore Dev, died in a road accident. She was raised by her mother and elder brother, and they were facing hardship in the form of poverty. She grew up with six sisters. The difficulties of life taught her important lessons which she would not have learned in any school. Earning an LLB from Delhi University But she did not give up and completed her schooling at Carmel Convent (Giridih) and St. John's School (Varanasi), followed by a degree from Vinoba Bhave University. Neetu was clear about which path she had to take, and for that, she moved to Delhi and earned an LLB from Campus Law Centre, Delhi University. Marriage, betrayal, and ultimate triumph In 2005, Neetu laid the foundation of her first coaching. In 2006, she married Rajiv Soumitra. Together, they started Paramount Coaching Centre, which went on to become a Rs. 200-crore enterprise. She also authored English Volume 1, a bestselling book for competitive exams. But then came a brutal turn. In August 2015, her husband allegedly sent goons to assault her and forcibly oust her from Paramount Coaching Centre of which she was a co-founder and 50% shareholder. Even this incident did not deter her, and she continued on her way forward.

Keep it simple, but significant
Piali Banerjee teaches English in the International Baccalaureate programme at a private high school in Mumbai. She has authored three books for children, all of which take an innovative and personal look at history. She has also had a stint in journalism at The Times of India and Mumbai Mirror, where she focussed on writing features that looked at people and issues with empathy and humour. At present she is having a great time trying to instil a love for learning and literature among teenagers. Although she is a teacher by profession, she firmly believes that she is a student at heart. LESS ... MORE Over the years, I have had thousands of conversations with students and teachers – intense ones, random ones, ones involving just shooting the breeze. If I were to cull meaning from these conversations and come up with one most important topic at hand, it would be about teaching techniques. And the most important teaching technique turns out to be the simplest. It is not so much about innovation in the classroom, projects, games, creative thinking exercises, critical thinking activities. It is not so much about 'constructivism', 'differentiation', 'metacognition' or 'divergent thinking'. It is far simpler. So, here are some vignettes of these conversations, without any long-winding context: 'Mr X is a really strict disciplinarian and a perfectionist and nags us constantly. But he also genuinely cares about each and every one of us, he wants each of us to do well. So we, kind of, put in more effort for him' – a student of Grade 11. 'Ms X doesn't have any preconceived notions. She treats all of us like smart students. She engages with us like we really have something valuable to say. So, we all compete to do better in her class' – a student of Grade 10. 'I met my junior school teacher, Mrs X today! I still remember being in her class. She was so concerned about us – not just me, all of us – that I feel safe just thinking about her' – a student of Grade 12. 'X has still not submitted the draft of her essay. It is so unlike her. I have not been able to get through on the phone, maybe I should drop in and see if all is well' – a Grade 12 teacher, whose student finally got an 'A' in the said essay. 'My previous online tutor used to keep his camera off all the time, so I always wondered if he was doing something else, after setting me some work' – a Grade 11 student. 'I enrolled for my project with Mr X because senior students told me he actually reads the material and gives good feedback, even though Mr Y is actually the expert in this area' – a Grade 10 student. 'I feel a teacher should try to help students sort out their personal problems. Of course, my students message me 24/7. It's difficult to cope, but I can empathise with them' – a teacher whose courses have hundreds of takers each year. I can go on… The message is quite loud and pretty clear in all these conversations. It goes back to the age-old tradition of teaching, cutting through the swathes of technology, sophistication and artificial intelligence. The message from all these conversations emerges that students learn better and perform best when they realise that their teachers care. When they leave the safety of their homes – be it at age eight or eighteen – they look for genuine concern and caring at school. And once they find teachers who care, they put their best into their studies. It's a simple formula. Recently a student filed a formal complaint with a reputed American university's business school, citing the excessive use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the course materials handed out, and requested reimbursement of tuition fees for that course. It has created an uproar in the academic world. While professors argue that gathering course materials from library books is much the same as gathering them from the same books through AI, students are crying foul. I feel, at the heart of this debate, at the heart of all the scandal created by this debate, is the simple question: Does my professor care enough to take the trouble for me? To make a difference in their students' lives, teachers don't really need to always be brilliant and perfect – they need to care. Only, and only, after this basic foundation is laid, comes innovation in the classroom, projects, games, creative thinking exercises, critical thinking activities; and 'constructivism', 'differentiation', 'metacognition' and 'divergent thinking'. P.S: The simple act of caring becomes heroic in this profession. Facebook Twitter Linkedin Email Disclaimer Views expressed above are the author's own.
