Kashmir under complete lockdown people lost their livelihood but thousands of students aspiring to write their JEE and NEET exams had lost hope. That’s when Wassim Bhat thought he could help kids by recording the videos of different concepts that he would otherwise have taught in a physical classroom. Originally from Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir, Wassim is not only young but a much-loved teacher among the kids in his village.
Kashmir was under lockdown even before the pandemic began . And so many careers were at stake. Hence, he decided to record videos of eight important chapters in Chemistry for JEE students and provide them on a pen drive. Since he has been working as a teacher and the students know him , he contacted them personally and told that if they are interested in preparing for the exams, then they can come home and copy it on their laptops from my pen drive. The response from these students was positive. While some students did not have a laptop, they would watch these videos along with their friends and take notes.”
Such is Wassim’s dedication to helping kids with studies. Observing the response from students and taking their advice seriously, Wassim started a YouTube channel called Wassim Bhat where around 37 videos that he has uploaded two or three months ago explaining the important concepts in Chemistry – each video has more than 6,000 views. He also has more than 4,19,000 subscribers.
