Community Teaching With Social Distancing

Amid COVID Crisis Teacher delivers classes in his lawns

Bandipora, 19 June, CNS: Amidst the continued lock-down due to ongoing Pandemic crisis, many teachers have walked an extra mile by imparting education to students through a novel way of Community Teaching. Like the 2016 unrest, when youths across the valley organized 'Curfew Schools' now in order to aid the student community during the COVID crisis, many teachers have arranged classes in their homes with safety measures in mind. A renowned teacher and writer from North Kashmir's Bandipora district, Majid Marouphay has set an example by taking a lead in reaching out to the student community and teaching scores of students in the courtyard of his house while implementing the social distancing.

Majid Marouphay while describing his motive behind initiative told CNS, "I took this initiative as it was extremely painful to see our wards out of schools from last many months. I approached the parents and requested them to send their kids here. There was an overwhelming response and now I teach students of middle standard in the lawn of my house with the full protective protocol.”

The parents have hailed this initiative of Majid Marouphay and have urged other teachers to follow the same.
"It is a heartwarming gesture to see someone caring for your ward at such times. Our children have suffered a lot due to no schooling since last August and initiatives like these make it sure that our children do not lose their precious time and stay in touch with their books. Majid's initiative should serve as an inspiration and example for other teachers as well," said a parent. (CNS)
