My Teaching Journey

Image
My journey as an educator began in 1994 at Dr. C. V. Raman School, Nellore , under the guidance of our Director and Correspondent, Madhusudan Reddy Garu . This institution gave me the first platform to shape my teaching career. For six years, I taught Mathematics across grades 6 to 10, learning and growing with every class. Our Principal, Late Bhujanga Rao Sir , offered invaluable guidance, while my colleagues— Pressona Sir, Vishwam Sir, Jagan Sir, Srinivasulu Sir, Pavan, Raju, and Sanjay Sir —encouraged me throughout. I taught students of all levels—brilliant, average, and below average—offering counseling and motivation to help them rise in life. From them, I learned one of my greatest truths: students are my real assets . Later, I joined Gomathy CBSE School , thanks to my spiritual sister Florence Akka , who was then the Principal. Under the leadership of Aruna Madam , who treated me like her own son, I gained valuable administrative skills. With my friend Hari Prasad , I success...

A Moment of Triumph: All India First in JEE

Image
Among the many milestones in my academic journey, one stands out with unmatched pride—the day Narayana Schools secured All India First Place in Academics for JEE across all 345 branches , while I was serving as Academic Dean . This recognition was not just about numbers or rankings; it was about the collective spirit of excellence nurtured in every classroom. And for me, the Arumbakkam Branch holds a special place in this story. Under the leadership of Sapna Madam, our Principal , and the dedication of Chaitanya Sir, our Physics faculty , the branch became a shining example of what teamwork, vision, and relentless effort can achieve. Together, we built an environment where students were inspired to aim higher, where teachers worked tirelessly to unlock potential, and where every challenge was met with determination. The synergy between leadership and faculty created a culture of discipline and innovation that propelled our students to the very top. Standing on stage, holding the tr...

Looking Back: Receiving My Certificate on the Life-Challenging Campaign Against Drug Addiction

Image
🌿 A Memory That Still Inspires Me Years ago, I stood in a hall filled with hope and determination, receiving my Certificate of Participation in the Life-Challenging Campaign on Drugs Education . Though time has passed, that moment remains etched in my memory as a turning point—one that reminded me of the power of awareness and the importance of standing against addiction. 🙏 The Campaign’s Purpose The initiative was designed to educate communities about the dangers of drug abuse and to equip participants with tools for prevention and counseling. It wasn’t just about lectures—it was about transformation, about learning how to rebuild lives and restore hope where addiction had caused pain. 📖 Lessons That Stayed With Me Addiction is not just an individual struggle—it affects families and society.

🌸 A Cherished Memory: GOMATHY School’s First CBSE 10th Grade Batch 🌸

Image
Looking back, one of the most unforgettable chapters of my journey was being part of GOMATHY School’s very first CBSE 10th grade batch. At that time, the air was filled with excitement, pride, and a sense of history being made. I still remember standing with the students and faculty in front of the school building, the banner proudly announcing our institution’s name. The students, dressed neatly in their uniforms, carried not just books and lessons, but also the hopes of being the pioneers—the very first to represent GOMATHY School in the CBSE 10th grade. The teachers, seated with dignity, were more than just educators; they were mentors who guided us through every challenge with patience and care. That photograph we took together wasn’t just a group picture—it was a symbol of unity, hard work, and the beginning of a legacy. For me, it was more than a professional moment; it was personal. It was about being part of something new, something that would shape the future of the school and...
