MY PRIVATE TUTION EXPERIENCE
My Tution experience can be called Integral teaching no doubt.I started Private Tutions in 2009 as an Art and Dance teacher in our old locality Paikpara, Tala area. I got two kids to teach,one was my neighbour and the other my House maid' s kid. I started teaching them without any money to gather experience in Art and Dance. They both were happy to be my student. Every Evening I called them to my home and experimented with new methods of teaching. They shared a good relationship with me and for 6 months I continued the job. I preferred slate and chalk in basic stage of drawing and taught them a few basic steps of Bharatnatyam Dance. They took the classes very sincerely and Me too was happy to be with them.
In 2010 With my parents I shifted to Saltlake Government Quarter and after a few months rest I again started private tutions in the Quarter area.
There I got more room and more space to receive more students. There came the children of the employees to take training in Art and Dance. Some other students from outside the Housing also came to me. I started teaching English and Bengali with school syllabus too.I prepared lessons for them every day.
Some Adult students also got involved with me to pass their leisure time in practicing Art specially. I continued with this group Upto 2014. Then I stopped teaching for some time. Actually Teaching has not been my passion at all. I am introvert and love to keep quiet most of the time a day. So pursuing tution was a tough and boaring job for me. But I needed money and experience which I got from tution. In 2014 I took a break for a few months again and started a job as a teacher in a Special school. There I got to teach children with special needs. I taught vocation-Yoga ,Drama ,Dance,Art ,Song , Recitation, Writing etc. In my locality I had a student beforehand who was somewhat specially needed. Teaching him helped me a lot to gather practicality which I used while doing job for specially needed children in DRISHTI - INSTITUTE FOR LEARNING DIFFICULTY from 2015 to 2019 .In 2017 I put an advertisement in Newspaper and hopefully students came to me. I started doing tutions by going students ' home also. in 2018 I got an Adult woman as my Art student who was suffering from Depression and I took therapitic technic to treat her properly and she responded Good.
Every first day my mom used to be with me when I went to Start a tution afresh. And there's no denying the fact that I received due respect and a reasonable amount of money from the guardian group. The students loved me lot ,no doubt.
The elder and younger both types enjoyed classes with me and they were given much freedom to use my Desktop computer,Casio to have fun in dancing, singing and art training.
I believe that teaching is not only training but it is also a therapy. My attempt of Art therapy without doing any professional courses reached a level of success that the guardians appreciated and respected me a lot. They went saying to continue tution but it came to an end in 2019 as I fell severely ill, damaged with pulmonary cough problem. Doctor advised voice rest so that I could not continue teaching and then in 2020 I got married and shifted to South Kolkata, Behala.
My experience in teaching is very good but my health and passion is not appropriate to continue it. So Now I am fully focused in Blogging and YouTube channel videos.
Hope you all enjoy my experience. And my suggestion to every Teacher is that do not take it as training class only but involve your therapitic knowledge and practical experience in it. Make Teaching a Fun and hopeful hour.
