I used to study these subjects or any subject for that matter for its inherent beauty. I found Newton's law of motion beautiful and Pythagorean theorem elegant. I loved solving problems of Physics and Mathematics of the 9th standard when I was in th e7th, not to show off, but just because I used to love problem-solving and used to enjoy finding out the most elegant method of solving them. Obviously, these’ problems were not a part of the curriculum, but I enjoyed the whole process. This attitude of looking beyond marks or examinations and to seek joy in solving any challenging problem helped me to develop a ‘problem-solving attitude which came handy when I appeared for my IIT entrance (JEE) because this exam is completely based on your problem-solving ability and the ability to think not only logically but quickly and rapidly. I scored 100% marks in Mathematics in almost all the examinations that I appeared for from my Ist standard until IIT, barring only a few times. I stood 16th in the SSC Board (at that time, this examination was for the whole of Maharashtra, including Nagput) and I stood 1st in the University in all subjects put together. Those days, you could get an admission into HT without the entrance test (JEE) if you had secured the 1st rand in the University. Therefore, I did not have to appear for the entrance test to get the admission into IIT, but nobody in Solapur told me about it, for I doubt if anybody in Solapur even knew about this rule.

Initially we felt okay itis good thing to be at home but later on we realised we can't sit at home. How are we going to continue our study? and then we became familiar with online teaching First time we heard about Zoom meeting app, Google Meet App and so many other things. Today I feel yes sitting at home we are learning a lot from our teachers. Yes, it is a boon for us. Ido agree, with you but at the same time if you know that this online teaching and learning has become a major issue as 70% of our children cannot afford to buy smart phone or have no money to buy the internet data. So, it is not reaching to all. Not only that in many parts of our country there is no electricity nor roads and the parents’are so poor that they are not able to meet both ends every day. How do we expect to bring in this flow of learning? Most of the time they are unwilling. to send their children especially girl child to send in a school now I feel no will stop education of them. : From my side, I feel it has benefitted our students as well as teachers to update their soft skills. May of them have learned about taking online lectures with the help of technology. They are using various techniques and methods to maketheir teaching interesting. Even thy are conducting open book tests and MCQ exams after every lecture. So, it is a good change. Ihave observed that many students just log in and move around the house and actually misusing this facility. Many kids are suffering from eye problems, some >, are getting tired sitting Infront of mobile and doing the assignments hours and “hours. They are overburdened with it. Finally, in conclusion, we can all agree that online classes has some merits for both’ students as well as teachers but equally there are some disadvantages of this online classes. We can conclude that if proper measures will not be taken this online classes may become burden for both students and teachers.
