Teach For India welcomes 403 alumni to join leaders working towards education equity

403 alumni have joined Teach For India’s movement to educate students across the country amid the current Covid-19 surge.

In spite of the hurdles the pandemic brought, this year’s graduating cohort emerges from the Fellowship, agile, adaptive, and prepared to face the outside world with immense hope and courage as they enter the Teach For India’s Alumni movement. Not only did they teach online but also raised relief materials for their students and their families. More than ever, they kept the wellbeing of their kids in mind as they increased learning time and found them gadgets to learn on. Prior to the Fellowship, he graduated from the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Guwahati where his research was on out-of-school children. Working in the field gave him an inside perspective into the education inequity problem in India which motivated him to join the Fellowship.
