Answer:
- Gandhiji's goal in establishing Tolstoy's path was to discover the true educational system through his personal experience and experimentation. He wanted to do this so that true education could be imparted without textbooks, by parents, without the slightest outside help.
- Literary training, on the other hand, was more difficult. He had neither the resources nor the necessary literary equipment; and I didn't have the time I wanted to devote to the subject. The physical work I did left me completely exhausted at the end of the day, and I had classes just when I needed rest the most. Therefore, instead of being fresh for class, I had a hard time keeping myself awake. The morning should be devoted to farm and housework, so school time should be maintained after lunch.There was no other right time for school.
- We gave the literary training at most three hours. Hindi, Tamil, Gujarati and Urdu were taught and instruction was given in the children's local languages. English was also taught. It was also necessary to introduce a little Sanskrit to the Hindu children of Gujarati and to teach all the children elementary history, geography and arithmetic. I was committed to teaching Tamil and Urdu. The little Tamil that I knew I acquired while traveling and in prison. He had gone no further than Pope's excellent Tamil manual.
- My knowledge of the Urdu script was all I had acquired in a single trip, and my knowledge of the language was limited to the familiar Persian and Arabic words I had picked up from contact with Muslim friends. I didn't know any more Sanskrit than I did in high school, even my Gujarati was no better than what you get in school.That was the capital he had to carry on with. In the poverty of literary equipment, my colleagues were better than me.
- Tamil boys were all born in South Africa and therefore knew very little Tamil and no script at all. So I had to teach them the script and the basics of grammar.
- That was pretty easy. My students knew that any day they would beat me in Tamil conversations and when Tamils who didn't know English came to me, they became my interpreters. I managed happily because I never tried to hide my ignorance from my students. I showed them exactly who I was in every way.
- Therefore, despite my colossal ignorance of the language, I have never lost their love and respect.Comparatively, it was easier to teach Urdu to Muslim children. You knew the script. I just had to get her interested in reading and improve her writing.

Literary training, in any case, was a troublesome matter. He had neither the assets nor the scholarly gear fundamental and had not the time he would have wished to dedicate to the subject.

- Literary training, in any case, was a troublesome matter. He had neither the assets nor the scholarly gear fundamental and had not the time he would have wished to dedicate to the subject. The actual work that he was doing used to leave him completely depleted by the day's end, and Gandhi Ji used to have the classes when he most needed some rest.
- All things considered, in this manner, of him being new to the class, Gandhi Ji could with the best trouble keep myself alert. The mornings must be given to chip away at the ranch and homegrown obligations, so the school hours must be kept after the noontime dinner. There could have been no other time appropriate for the school.
- Gandhi Ji and his team gave three periods at the most to abstract preparation. Hindi, Tamil, Gujarati and Urdu were undeniably educated, and the educational cost was given through the vernaculars of the young men. English was instructed also. It was likewise important to familiarize the Gujarati Hindu kids with just the right amount of Samskrit and to show every one of the youngsters rudimentary history, geology and number juggling.
- Gandhi ji had attempted to show Tamil and Urdu. The little Tamil he knew was obtained during journeys and in prison. He had not got past Pope's superb Tamil handbook. His insight into the Urdu script was all that he had procured on a solitary journey, and his insight into the language was restricted to the natural Persian and Arabic words that Gandhi had gained from contact with Musalman companions. Of Samskrit he realized something like he had learnt at secondary school, even his Gujarati was no greater than that which one secures at the school.
