Private tuition
The queue of secondary level students for Private Tuition towards either school teacher's house, or the coaching centre or both, is becoming longer day by day, while for each student at least one private tutor like a student of a college, university, or a teacher of school, college etc is being engaged and the number of private tutors varies according to the affordability of the parents.
Why is such mentality of our tender-minded students, who will lead the country in future to reach the highest peak of prosperity, is growing unbridled? Three probable answers, I think, of this question are there. These are 1) Students have eagerness to learn more than they are taught in the classroom. 2) Guardians, who are confused over what is taught in the classroom, influence their children to go for private tuition. 3) Private tuition is satisfactory and intelligible to both students and guardians.
If any one, of the said three reasons, is likely to be viable in our education system, it will intransigently degenerate the system, as well as the public belief in schooling and let the queue to be longer and longer.
So, what should be done?
