Craze For Coaching Classes
_________________________
Education equips one with real skills to secure a bright
career, so everyone is quite serious about educating themselves. However, the
notion that education can be had easily by joining coaching classes merely is
quite mistaken. The craze of joining coaching centers is becoming quite
widespread. Seeing this craze among the youngsters, many new coaching centers
are opening up. The bitter reality is that most of these centers don’t have
competent teachers. The pace of the syllabus completion is quite fast. Some
students find it really difficult to cope up with this speed.
Knowledge acquisition is a slow, gradual and dynamic process
that happens usually during the sincere pondering over the abstract concepts in
one’s study. The so called coaching centers can paint rosy pictures about their
capabilities and facilities by advertising. These coaching centers can
familiarize the students with the formats of exams; however, as far as
knowledge acquisition is concerned, that does not happen in the crowded rooms
of such centers.
One must consider all the pros and cons of coaching centers thoroughly before joining one of them. One must always remember there is no substitute for SELF-STUDY.

Coaching Classes have become as important and necessary as schools these days. You will rarely see a kid taking up something without the help of coaching — be it studying, learning a musical instrument or playing sports. Coaching classes are a trend in India and especially when it comes to the field of education. But are they just that — a trend? Or is our education system failing us and coaching institutes filling up the gap? Read on the story of the birth of coaching classes and whether they are a need or a trend.
Coaching Classes in India
As per the 2011 population census, more than 480 million Indians are in the age group of 0-19 years. They are a huge asset to our country as their youthful energy can be used to transform India from a developing to a developed country – the dream of Late A.P.J. Abdul Kalam that is shared by millions. But we need a system where the potential of youth can be explored for the good of the society. For this to happen, we require a holistic educational policy and infrastructure, which can meet the needs our big population, where no child is left behind or unattended. This sentiment mainly was the reason behind the birth of coaching classes.
Where Do We Stand?
The question arises: are we able to guarantee our future generations, the naive girls, and boys of 0-19 age group, what they rightfully deserve? The answer is, we are struggling to meet their needs. We invested merely 3.8% of our GDP on education in 2015-16, which was lower than the previous year. The MPs demanded that the ideal investment should shoot up to 6% in the future. As per statistics in 2010, when the world invested 4.9% GDP on education, we spent a meager 3.3%. Conditions of the schools are deteriorating. Out of the existing 75,489 schools in Karnataka, news reports suggest that nearly 22,000 schools have two or fewer teachers per school and these statistics also include private schools. 1767 schools have no teachers and an astounding 45,000 teachers’ posts are lying vacant. The teachers who are available are overburdened with clerical work, have little autonomy, which in turn reduce their curiosity and motivation in the teaching job. Another alarm for the education infrastructure in the cities is the migration of rural population to the urban areas. As per reports, from 1960-2010, the rural population has decreased from 82.1% to 69.9% and urban population has increased from 17.9% to 30.1%. It has made the dream of affordable and accessible education to all far-fetched. The biggest burn is taken by the middle-class families who drive the nation. They feel the crunch of admitting their children into a good school and have to shell off more money as the demand is increasing and supply is down.
