Founder's Journey

Sachin.

Teacher. Founder of The Shiksha Project.

I started as a teacher and I am still one. The Shiksha Project is what grew out of the classroom: a place where good teaching comes first and technology serves it, never the other way around.

Better education begins when we put the human being back at the centre of learning.

Every idea here comes from one place: a teacher who has watched how students really learn, and who wants every child to have the opportunity to learn well, think independently, and ask questions without hesitation.

How it came together

In Sachin's words

It began where every teacher begins: in front of a class of students who all learn in different ways.

Some needed more time with a concept. Some needed to see it demonstrated. Some needed someone to listen. Teaching well meant teaching the student, not just the syllabus.

The moments that mattered most never showed up on a dashboard: a student who went quiet, a question finally asked. And a few things kept repeating.

  • Teachers were losing hours to preparing questions, checking work and keeping records, time that belonged to teaching.
  • Parents wanted to help, but could not see exactly where their child needed it.
  • Students needed feedback while it still mattered, not weeks later.
“Better education begins when we put the human being back at the centre of learning.”

Technology could take the repetitive work off teachers and give parents a clearer view of their child's progress, as long as people stayed in charge.

So the rule became simple, and it still guides every decision we make: AI can assist. The human must lead.

We are still building, step by step: live classes, tests, AI viva practice and clear progress reports for parents, so that many more teachers and learners can be supported.

My mission is to help every child learn well, think independently, and ask questions without hesitation. If you are a student, a teacher or a parent, I want you to feel that this place was built for you.

What his students say

The teacher, in their words

I never once felt that Sachin sir was teaching just for the sake of it for I could feel his passion through the screen.

Tharika Aravind

Grade 10 ICSE Maths

Sachin sir is one of the reasons I fell in love with Physics and he makes understanding even the most tricky concepts very easy.

Tulika Sah

Sachin Sir has a rare gift for ensuring physics makes sense, breaking down complex theories into simple concepts from the basics.

What he stands for

AI can assist.
The human must lead.

01

Understanding over memorisation

Learning should build the ability to think, explain, question, and apply.

02

Respect before results

A child's self-respect should never be sacrificed in the pursuit of academic performance.

03

Human relationships at the centre

Education works best when students, teachers, and parents work together.

In the end, education is not just about what a student knows.

It is also about who they become.
