Coaching centres

Coaching centre is a private school or college that is governed by private authorities. There are many coaching centres in our country. In recent times they are growing up like mushrooms in every corner of our cities. Especially they are found in the commercial areas around the school/colleges. The guardians send their children to the coaching centres in the hope of better teaching. But the authorities of these centres create heavy pressure upon the students, which is beyond the capacity of the students. They are to memorise the notes given by their teachers.

As a result, the natural growth of their brains is hampered. The authorities of these institutions collect a large amount of money from the students, as per their wishes, in the name of tuition fees and note charges. So it is quite impossible on the part of a poor father to send his children to a coaching centre.

Moreover, the teachers of the government schools and colleges are becoming a liability. Sometimes they are seen teaching in so called coaching centres. They are totally indifferent to the students of their own institutions. Thus the education of the students is badly impaired.

I believe that a coaching centre is a threat to our future generations. The men at the helm should take note of the problems created by coaching centres.
