When I first created this page, the intention was very simple.
I was a tuition teacher then, and I thought I would upload videos of my lectures and classes — partly to help students, and partly as a way to reach more learners. In a way, it was also a marketing strategy.
But slowly… things didn’t go exactly the way I had planned.
I was never very aggressive about posting. Sometimes I felt like making videos, sometimes I didn’t. Life changed, priorities changed, and somewhere in the process I think I subconsciously decided something — that maybe I don’t want to “lecture” through videos the way I do in classrooms.
Classroom teaching feels alive. Videos feel different.
So I kept this page quiet. Whatever little I posted, I wanted it to be informative — not performative.
But today, I’m not here with a video.I just want to ask something.
Do you think studying is only about scoring marks?
Is it about running after tuitions just to increase numbers on a report card?Is it about the rat race of 19/20 = good, 12/20 = bad?
Is studying only homework, exams, and comparisons?
Or…
Is it also about knowing things?About getting fascinated by concepts?About being curious over small lines written in textbooks?
The kind of curiosity where a historical event feels alive…Where a science concept feels magical…Where a mathematical method makes you pause and think —“Wow… so this is how it works?”
Some students feel that excitement.Many don’t.
There are reasons behind that — deep ones — but that’s a discussion for another day.
For now, I just wanted to put this thought here.
Maybe studying is not only about marks.Maybe it is also about wonder.
What do you think?
