CCT Sangali Clear Concepts Tutorials – CCT Sangali

Growth

It wasn’t very long back. It all started in may 2013. A well known dentist from small town of Islampur, Dr. Suhas Kulkarni was searching a good tuition for his second daughter, an aspiring medical student. His elder daughter was already studying in GS medical college, Mumbai. According to her, many of her classmates were students of Dr. Abhang Prabhu and Prof. Avinash Mishra,  who were one of the best tutors for CET and eventually proved to be best for NEET as well. So Dr. Suhas and his wife Dr. Manali tried to meet Dr. Prabhu in Mumbai .

Dr. Suhas had gathered a bunch of around 30/40 students in Islampur who wanted to learn from best educators of Mumbai and he wanted teachers from Mumbai to come to Islampur. A seemingly impossible task!  But nevertheless, he tried meeting Dr. Abhang Prabhu. At first Dr. Prabhu was reluctant even to meet Dr. Suhas. But his persistent efforts and patience paid. He finally persuaded Dr. Prabhu to visit Islampur once to guide parents and students about NEET and CET. He successfully managed to convince Dr. Prabhu that there is lot of potential in small town kids which is going wasted without proper guidance from experienced teachers. Dr. Prabhu addressed a seminar in Islampur , he liked this place and the people he met here, and eventually agreed to come and teach with his team.

Initially it was decided that this team will teach only MCQs. But as they started teaching they realised that students were weak in their basics about the science subjects. So later they started teaching theory as well. Our teachers took this Islampur project as a challenge. Very few students had joined and the project was not economically viable, there was much resistance from local class owners, everybody was saying this team will not come regularly, they will wind up and go back leaving students in the mid of nowhere.

But Dr. Suhas and Dr. Manali were sure that clear concepts team will complete the task taken in hand even if they have to face any challenge. Entire Kulkarni family and some other parents took good care of the teachers. Teachers’ pick up and drop to railway station, their food arrangements and stay everything was managed perfectly.

Meanwhile in sangli city some 45 kms away from Islampur parents and students were facing same problems of guidance for NEET and CET. As clear concepts team started coming regularly to Islampur some parents from sangli started sending their children to Islampur once a week. One such parent was Dr. N.S.Parchure. As time passed, some more parents joined in.  Then they invited the team to sangli. By seeing the huge response of sangli students, CCT team decided to open a center in sangli. Dr. Nalini Parchure agreed to look after it as the local co-ordinator.

There was no infrastructure, no office, no staff at the beginning, but admissions started pouring in. So Dr. Narsinh Parchure helped in finding a place for the classes. Dr. Suhas and some local well wishers helped with the interiors and in finding office staff and other things. Students and parents themselves helped to establish the class in sangli.

Sangli center started in 2014. In 2016 sangli saw the best ever result it can get in medical and engineering entrance exams. It is not easy to maintain punctuality and discipline in teaching at a place so far off from Mumbai like sangli. Sending the best teaching faculty for 5 days a week, and maintaining the quality of teaching, quality of notes, papers and also of non teaching facilities is a task in itself. We even have an in house counselling wing to help students in all aspects of their academic and non academic problems. This is possible only because of the passion and persistence of the teaching and non teaching staff.

In 2014 we started only with two classrooms and a small office. Gradually we took over three floors of the same rental building. We managed all schedules perfectly even during Covid. Post covid we started feeling a need of our own building where we can provide a better infrastructure like study room, canteen, practical facility etc. Sangli’s renowned builder Mr Vikas Lagoo whose daughter Mihika secured admission to govt medical college through CCT, was ready to help. So, with his help we got our own six storey building in 2022, we have everything under one roof. Now our students do not have to go to any other facility for academic or any other purpose

Clear concept has always stood behind students as a rock solid pillar and it will continue doing same in the future. We not just teach students but our teachers and counsellors mentor them and try to empower them to navigate through their journey towards success !!!
