At a time when most city schools have started online classes for its students, a Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) school teacher has come up with a unique idea of teaching kids through regular conference calls so that they do not need a computer or internet connection for it. As many of the kids do not have the technological support at home, the Turbhe civic schoolteacher is making them use only their parents' mobile phones for the classes.
Subhangi Sansare, who teaches Std III students at NMMC school number 20 in Turbhe waited for a couple of days after the lockdown was declared. When she realised that the situation won't be normal soon, she called up the parents of 40 students and started the classes. Slowly it became a daily practice. After dividing the students in batches, she started taking 50-60 minute classes everyday, teaching one topic daily. She would give homework and discuss that the next day.
