Only Reading Books Creates Successful Minds

  Introduction – My Story When I was in Class 4 or 5, I developed a simple habit—reading books. Not to score marks, not for exams, but out of pure curiosity. At home, I often watched my parents teaching junior students with patience and passion. Their dedication inspired me deeply. By the time I was in Class 6, I started teaching myself. My parents appreciated my teaching style, and that moment changed everything. I realised something powerful at a very young age: Reading builds understanding. Teaching deepens it. This simple habit shaped my identity. It helped me become a confident teacher, a motivational speaker for students of Classes 10 and 11, and a mentor whose students—from Class 1 to Class 10—scored up to 95%. My foundation was never rote memorisation; it was reading with purpose . The Changing Attitude Towards Reading Today, the culture of reading has weakened drastically. Many students depend entirely on: guidebooks summaries ready-made answers social medi...

Do They Really Succeed in the Exam of Life? A Reality Check on Different Types of Students

    By Andrews Elsan In every classroom, we meet different kinds of students — toppers, average scorers, silent learners, emotional souls, talented multitaskers, and even the misled ones. But as soon as school ends, a surprising truth appears: Marks decide your result card, but character decides your future. In this blog, let’s look at some common student types and what life usually holds for them beyond the classroom. 1. The High Scorer Who Is Weak in Co-Curricular Activities Academically brilliant. Teachers remember their answers. Parents feel proud. But life demands more than marks: Communication Creativity Leadership Adaptability Confidence Without these, many toppers struggle later because they only learned to answer questions , not to handle situations . Life Outcome: Good start, but stagnant progress unless they learn real-world skills. 2. The Moderate Scorer with Strong Practical Skills Not a topper, not a failure — but talented in m...

The Book of Life – From a Seed to a Star: A Journey Through the Pages of Growing Up

By Andrews Elsan   When a child is born, their book lies open — blank, pure, and waiting to be written. This metaphor, simple yet profound, captures one of life's most beautiful truths: we are all authors of our own stories, and the narrative we create shapes the person we become. From the first breath to the moment we step into adulthood, life unfolds like a magnificent novel, each chapter revealing new characters, challenges, and revelations. The First Pages: Colors of Innocence Each day, a new page turns. The first pages are filled with colors of innocence, laughter, and curiosity. A baby's first smile, the wonder in their eyes as they discover their own hands, the pure joy of hearing a familiar voice – these are the opening lines of every human story. In these early pages, the world is magical. Everything is new, everything matters, and every sensation writes itself into memory with vivid intensity. A butterfly's flight becomes an epic adventure. A mother's embra...

🧠Why Middle School Matters: The Truth About Friendships, Distractions, and Social Barriers in School

  W hy M iddle School Matters: The Truth About Friendships, Distractions, and Social Barriers in School By Andrews Elsan Middle school — particularly Classes 6, 7, and 8 — is more than just a time of changing textbooks and growing taller. It’s a critical phase in a student’s journey where study habits, friendships, confidence, and values begin to form deeply . Yet, during this stage, many students start to drift away from consistency in studies, often due to wrong influences, distractions, or rigid social expectations — sometimes even unintentionally encouraged by parents and society. 📚 Why Some Students Lose Focus in Classes 6–8 This phase marks a major transition from childhood to adolescence. Here's what often changes: Subjects become harder — Science splits into Physics, Chemistry, Biology; Social Science becomes more complex. Students begin searching for identity and peer approval . The desire to be “cool” or liked can sometimes matter mo...
