Note from the Founder:

I was born in a little town in India, Neamatpur, in a typical lower-middle-class ‘Marwari family. My family  including distant relatives are into business.

My ‘bauji’ (father), now almost  80 years, had to sacrifice his schooling and joined ‘daadaji” ( grandfather) in our small ‘dukan’ ( shop). He probably studied only till 9th gradeMy father’s lack of schooling did not deter his determination to provide me with the best education. He got me admitted into the best English medium School (St. Pat’s) in the district, despite barely being able to afford the school fees at that time.

From Grade 1 itself, I went to the School in crowded public local buses, to save cost. It was the cheapest mode of transport  and I had to also walk more than a kilometer to school. All my classmates used reserved School private buses straight to School. Even then, I was always  happy with the freedom from the fixed schedule of those private buses.

I topped the Class 10th exams in my community in my town. (Seema, my wife, came a close second smile).  [On a separate note, my daughter years later, would go on to secure All India 5th Rank in ICSE 2022 results]

Coming back to my story; after the 10th, I fought my way home to relocate to the City -Kolkata for further studies. Ma ( mom) obviously tried to convince me that I was too young to manage myself but in vain. I had never been out of my small town before. I was the only student from my town to secure admission into St Xavier’s College and Poddar Chhatra Niwas (hostel), both top-ranked institutions in the Country.

The seeds of independence and value for money were planted early on. I was financially independent during my undergraduate years, never asking for money from my parents, sustaining myself on stipend/part-time jobs and saving as much as possible ( washing my own clothes, cheapest travel mode, no parties, etc).  I was a few of the fortunate ones to get internships with Global institutions like E&Y and  HLL which also paid decent stipends ( Rs 1K p.m those days).  I used to think there will be enough life to enjoy later on.

My mornings started with college from 6 am immediately followed by office, studying parallelly for three courses -B Com, CA, and CS. There was a high bar for attendance in both college and office.

After acquiring three professional degrees, CA (May 03), CS (June 03), and FRM (USA- 2008), I  worked with very respected global companies ( Tata Steel, HLL, E&Y, Citi & HSBC)  in India and Hong Kong for almost 2 decades.

I pursued learning and diversity of job experience throughout my corporate career and was fortunate to have the unique opportunity to work across the full life cycle of the business:  across operations, national product development, regional relationship management, and global sales with some of the largest investment banks of the world.  I am deeply thankful to a lot of people. In brief, my key roles were: Branch Trade Officer in Charge -Citi India Corporate Banking, Head Settlement Operations ( Citi India Securities Services), Head Product Development ( Securities Services HSBC India), Regional Relationship Manager, and Global Business Development Manager in Hong Kong. In my last role, I drew a handsome salary of 8 figures.

I have no particular reference to excel, except an inner desire and belief that life is all about learning and experiences. I had no mentor in my family from whom I could seek academic or career guidance; it was all self-learning.

We had a deep urge to create something new that could be of immense benefit to a large set of people; something that empowers them; something that makes their life easy; something that reduces stress in people’s lives, something which makes this world a better place.

After working in large corporates for decades, we wanted to create a Company with a great client-centric culture, with no politics, where efforts are rewarded, and where employee learning and progress are a priority and everyone feels a sense of ownership towards our Customers and students. We wanted to create a Company where team members are treated as ‘owners’ and adults!

Both Seema and I share a common love of being around children and are passionate about providing them access to high-quality education and nurturing their skills which helps them lead a successful life. Being parents to young daughters aged 13 and 16 years and having lived in small-town to big cities in India and in Hong Kong, we have first-hand experienced the challenges faced by parents, learners, and teachers across different tiers. We understand the importance of children learning more than just academically and building skills they will need to succeed, no matter what field they go into. Unfortunately, skills-building is not given great significance by the traditional schooling system and very few schools actually provide for it. Personalized attention from a motivating and passionate teacher is crucial, yet is lacking in most schools today. In addition, finding good engaging teachers is a problem for parents.

In 2020, we decided to create our impact-focused venture Classbuk.com. Through Classbuk, we are making a positive difference in the lives of our teachers and learners. Classbuk.com improves the proficiency of children and helps them acquire skills through amazing teachers for a wide range of classes. Classbuk empowers educators to share their knowledge with learners across India and overseas, helping them to maximize their success, through the use of the internet and technology. Our focus is on learners aged between 3-18 years, which are the formative years of development for their lives ahead. Classbuk eliminates the problem of parents having to screen multiple teachers before enrolling their child for live online classes.

Outside of work, I have taken up other challenges and succeeded; from a person with low stamina to running several half marathons and completing 100 km of a trail walk, self-learning swimming to completing rigorous 10 days of intense Vipassana meditation.

If life is all about experiences, Classbuk is really pushing the boundaries of my life’s experiences. It was not an easy decision in any way. My wife, Seema, and my father fully supported & encouraged me to pursue my passion and dream. Seema is a perfect soul mate and is my anchor in many ways. Seema is proudly teaching young kids across multiple countries and our two daughters,  go to one of the best  (not expensive) schools in the Country.

Classbuk is now in the third year of running offering classes on more than 40 topics, having served kids from 10+ countries and helping hundreds of women teachers earn. We are a profitable, bootstrapped venture with 5-star Google ratings and an industry-best of 96% renewal rate.  Read my Linkedin Post as of Apr 2023  https://bit.ly/40cEoCx

Bauji continues to be my mentor and I reach out to him for guidance and motivation regularly.

Classbuk wants to contribute to the vision of making India the knowledge capital of the world. We feel immense satisfaction as well as have a sense of strong responsibility that Classbuk can be a medium for very talented women to earn extra income from their homes with full flexibility as well as a medium to impart life skills to young learners at an early age, which serve them for life.

Classbuk, cannot however succeed without your help. We request you to support us by referring good teachers, reaching out to us for your online class needs, or just spreading Classbuk in your digital and offline social circles. Every small help matters.  Any feedback or suggestions are always welcome.

 

Thanks a Million!
