Even with eyes, you're blind...
Let me get real with you...
Have you ever noticed what’s been happening to our students?
Imagine being put in a room you’ve never been inside before
There are people like you everywhere, sitting silently
Feeling the same way you are.
And a few meters in front you
Is a figure of authority that scares the life out of you.
The worst part about all this?
You’re supposed to do this again and again
For a whole year.
Just so that you can go into a new room
With a new figure of authority.
For another whole year.
This is what’s been happening to our students.
How do you expect already socially awkward learners
to interact with teachers they’ve never been introduced to?
As much as ‘tough-guy-lifestyle-promoters’ don’t like to admit it
The fact that remains is that
Students are going through rapidly changing life circumstances
Despite only living a few years at all.
If they don’t have somebody trusted they can confide in
If they do not have a mentor
How do you expect them to master their subjects?
AND
How do you expect an already over-worked, under-paid teacher at school to be a mentor to countless students at once?
Especially in the toxic culture of coaching classes in India?
We need change.
And we need it fast.
At the cost of producing results year after year
We’ve forgotten the price of humanity
And labelled every student out there as nothing more than a roll number.
Here at LC, we recognize this issue.
At LC, One student. One mentor.
That is probably the strictest policy we follow.
And for good reason.
Every learner is different,
And naturally so is the way they learn.
If you’re ready, as a parent, or a student yourself,
To be something more than a roll number.
To not have to conform with whatever box our education system puts you in.
Then LC is the right place for you.
