Learning Through Play at GHPS Hosa Anka Samudra

In the quiet village of Hosa Anka Samudra, nestled in the Hagaribommanahalli cluster of Vijayanagar, learning took on a whole new dimension this year. For the first time, the 5th-grade students of GHPS Hosa Anka Samudra participated in eVidyaloka’s online classes. The experience was nothing short of transformative, thanks to the unique teaching approach of volunteer teacher Padma.

Padma Ma’am introduced multiplication in a way that the students had never imagined—through interactive games. She divided the children into small groups, creating an environment of healthy competition and collaboration.

The classroom buzzed with energy as students eagerly worked together, helping one another understand the concept of multiplication. The fun and engaging method not only removed the fear of numbers but also built a strong foundational understanding. For children who were attending online classes for the first time, this playful approach turned learning into an adventure.

The impact was evident. The students, who once found multiplication daunting, now approached it with confidence and enthusiasm. “We never thought math could be so much fun,”

Padma’s dedication and creativity are a shining example of how education, when blended with fun and engagement, can spark a lifelong love for learning. GHPS Hosa Ankasamudra 5th graders are not just learning multiplication; they’re discovering the joy of education.

This story is a celebration of how eVidyaloka and its volunteer teachers are making education accessible, impactful, and delightful for students in rural India.
