ABKO English Academy
Our Founder's Story : Since this is probably the first time you are reading my thoughts, I thought it is better to take a moment to get to know each other. First, let me introduce myself. Who am I and what have I been up to? I established my first start-up in 2008 when I was doing my engineering at KIT College, Kolhapur. I founded a committee with the name www ( Walk With the World) and I started teaching English to my juniors for FREE. It was the kind of social work for others but I was gaining the experience and that was my first investment. My second start-up was my YouTube channel which got only 100 subscribers between the years 2011 to 2016. A big failure for me :-(. Let’s talk about this at the end of the story. I did Engineering because I thought I could get a job and a good wife. Generally, girls ask this question before they choose a guy, ‘Is he an Engineer?’. hmmm !!!! I did Mtech from BITs Pilani in the year 2015 because my dad had a dream to see his son a postgraduate one. By 2016, I understood that IT is not for me and I wanted to make some money on the side by teaching English to others. Why teach English ?? … Going back to my school days I was given a chance to speak on an occasion and I faltered miserably. This was the worst yet best day of my life. Worst because it gave me pain, best because it changed something deep inside. That day was a life-changing day for me. On that day, I decided to be the best at English. I started by tutoring people who were in my building by taking very nominal fees. You might not even know what it was like with only 1000 rs in my bank account. :)But to bring a change and passion for teaching helped me transform my life and many others.
