Students helped to crack plus-2 maths exams
Chennai: For some students last minute studying is the most preferred method to pass an exam, while for others it has become the lone method. For the benefit of both these groups, a recently launched online education portal is conducting a three-day free tutorial just in time for class 12 board exams and for a subject assumed to be the most difficult – Mathematics!
Aiming at democratizing learning, Kaaryin primarily works towards connecting teachers and students from different parts of the country for topics
ranging from Class 10 subjects to competitive examinations to music courses as well. To further their cause of reaching far and wide, this time the Kaaryin team decided to launch the training programme ahead of the Mathematics exam.
As the Tamil Nadu plus-2 Mathematics exam is scheduled on March 18, Kaaryin will have study sessions for three days prior to the exam, starting from March 15.
Teachers will also be available to the students 24 hours a day.
“Students who have any doubts during the last few days can login,” said Murali Subramaniam, COO of Kaaryin. The website was inspired by former president
Dr APJ Abdul Kalam’s dream to make education accessible to all, Subramaniam told Deccan Chronicle. “We have students of all ages who use our portal and teachers from different educational backgrounds register with us. Since
our start in October 2015, we realised that a lot of students from 10 and 12 standards attempting their board exams visit the portal the most. Therefore we decided to launch this free session.”
Subramaniam said the teachers counselling and conducting the sessions have over 20 years of experience. Kaaryin has organised a schedule for teachers in their own office so that they are prepared for any technical glitches.
“On other days, teachers can do their sessions from home but for this particular programme, we have organised everything in our office premises to avoid problems like power cuts or technical problems,” said the COO.
Since this is their first attempt, Subramaniam said only mathematics was chosen as students sought the most tutoring for it, “Next year we hope to cover all the other subjects as well, so as to provide all the necessary help to the students and relieve them of the last minute stress,” said Subramaniam.
