Why We Started Vridhee ?

On 31st March, 2021 Dipyaman and Dipanwita were driving from Kolkata, West Bengal (India) to Balasore, Odisha (India) for a business meeting. On the way to NH-16 near Kolaghat They stopped for a small tea break. It was a small tea stall where an old man was preparing the tea and a kid was doing multiple tasks like washing and serving the tea. Without thinking much as most of people do, They asked the kid his age, he hesitated a little but eventually said 13. Hearing that Dipyaman immediately thought, that this is child labor and the kid needs to go to school. He asked him if he goes to school in the same taunting manner that idiotic intellectual does without thinking much of reality. He said, he left school almost 3 years ago and happy to work and earn money since then. Again they started giving lectures about how important education is for life and without education he will remain in tea stall for the rest of his life and blah blah... He listened to us very carefully (as we were the only customer that time) and then said something which affected both of them enormously and made them think about it.

Wondering what was his response? He said though he does not have the time for school (as he has to earn money to support his family) he studies. He will not be working in the tea stall for his entire life but he will design and make beautiful cars one day. In his brother's (who works in a car garage) mobile, he watches YouTube videos of car mechanics whenever he gets time and is a big fan of some shows Leepu & Pitbull though his understanding of English is not that good. He even asked Dipyaman to request Leepu (who is from Bangladesh) to make some videos in Bengali. Also whenever he and his two other friends (who also want to design cars) get some time, they help his brother learn more about cars. He also mentioned when PM Modi (Prime Minister of India) can be PM working in a tea stall then why he cannot design big beautiful cars one day.

That day I had learnt few very important things from that kid in Kolaghat, which are as follows:

  • Education does not mean only Physics, Chemistry or Mathematics or some bookish knowledge but can be anything what one likes and related to his/her dream.
  • Learning doesn?t have any fixed time, if someone is interested in learning something, he/she will find out the time needed for it.
  • If you are willing to learn, then you will surely find some inspiration and there is plethora of free data or content available to learn.
  • Theory can teach you basics, but to be professional you need some kind of practical experience and guidance from someone who can mentor you.
  • Every one of us is a teacher and also a learner. Learning never stops; we learn from people around us, similarly when you teach you learn more. You gain knowledge when you share knowledge.
  • It is not always easy to find people with same interest but when you do and jam with them to keep the common dream alive, your learning becomes fun.

The learning that we received that day from a kid of 13 years gave birth of ?Vridhee?. To build any solution, we need to do a lot of research around the problem and that is what we did. With our 15 years of experience in educational industry we knew that the numbers will be big but knowing the actual numbers is a different feeling completely:

0+ M

Learners in T3, T4 cities who does not have access to affordable quality education.

0+ M

Adults are illiterate globally

[Not aware of education necessity. Feels daily necessity is more important than education]

0M +

0%

Lack of peer support & mentorship

Though Dipyaman went through lots of global data about problems in 21st century education, studied reformed circulars by various government officers and educationalists around the globe to know what others are thinking but still felt that without talking to the real people on the ground we may miss something, so last 9 months we discussed and surveyed a different kind of people (also our relation with institutions helped us a lot). We definitely knew that a platform for learners will be of no use without a strong community of teachers or academic mentors. Most of the paid online platforms (MOOC) or very few free educational platforms hired teachers on a contract basis and tried to build a mentorship program but eventually left a very huge number of teachers vulnerable to this new trend of content-based online learning. We understood this when we met an English teacher accidentally in Varanasi, India on 24th August 2021.

Vridhee survey was in full swing which made them reach Varanasi in August. We met a young lady in her early thirties in a Photostat shop who came to print pamphlets. Dipyaman attention went to her when he saw some kids wishing her good morning while passing by the shop. I looked into one of the pamphlet which is about joining an English tutor class. Dipanwita went close to her and started a conversation and what we found is that she is elder to her 3 siblings and the main source of income for her family. She is well-known in her locality for teaching English, which we understood from the three kids who passed by a few minutes back. It was clear from their good morning wish that they really liked her a lot.

But when pandemic hit, the situation changed a lot and she lost many students in the duration. No one was there to help her with online teaching. She took some time but eventually, she learned how to teach online from YouTube. But now a lot of her past students are learning from technology companies where watching videos and online tests are trends as their parents thought those applications would give better results which was explained to them by some sales executive that without those contents the kid?s future will be lost and the kid will be losing to all his friends since all are using their platform.

She applied in a few companies as an English teacher but got no response, she feels science and math teachers are more in demand and not English. Dipyaman and Dipanwita felt terrified when she said that she might switch profession if the situation doesn?t improve soon. Once a well-known teacher is now getting ready to distribute pamphlets as a last hope to be in the profession.

Can you imagine a society without teachers ? Teachers are arguably the most important members of our society. They give children purpose, set them up for success as citizens of our world, and inspire in them a drive to do well and succeed in life. A teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. But now it is becoming a thankless profession where recognition and income are the lowest.

Key points that were understood with 9 months of hard work and travels are as below:
  • Free educations are getting provided by many in small scale. To make it really big we have to build a very big and strong community where everyone will be a teacher and everyone will be a learner.
  • ?Teachers Day? cannot be the only event to recognize or remember our teachers. They are doing a lot for building the society and now it?s time to build their profile and showcase their activities and give them the recognition they deserve.
  • Only free education or mid-day meal is not sufficient to get a needy kid or adult into education. They also need the opportunity to earn their livelihood while studying. We will give various opportunities in the application for the needy to earn money because of learning and community contribution in Vridhee.
  • Education is boring for many, so we need the mechanism to make it fun. Many teachers did it with very simple understanding of human psychology along with good use of peer learning. Never feel alone, know what others are doing and gets inspired to do it yourself and have fun being part of a team having the same goal, once you understand the goal.
  • Either expensive structured curriculum-based content in MOOC platforms or lot of free unstructured content with distraction. When there are such huge free quality contents available in various sources, then why can?t we use them? Only thing needed is to curate those contents in structured curriculum manner using AI and ML rather than putting huge money to build them again.
  • Social media platforms are good for entertainment and collaboration but learning needs concentration and that doesn?t happen in the middle of all the other distractions. Vridhee gives that social learning platform for a more fulfilling learning journey along with peers where learners inspire and challenge each others, participate in competitions, get any doubts solved by Vridhee community and earn Vridhee coins.
  • Language is a language and shouldn?t come in the way of learning a skill. Vridhee gives the community to every user where one gets other users who communicate in same language and also learn from the contents of his/her preferred language. We also verified that multilingual contents are already available in free sources like YouTube.
  • Many teachers and learners will surely join for the cause #educationforall, but only cause cannot drive long as professional task and commitment will come in between. Thus, Vridhee needs to be part of their profession by building various smart tools, applications managing administrative and learning activities (ERP+LMS), helping them to build their own campus and also get recognized to grow more in profession.

What is Vridhee?
