Eleven-year-old Mohammed Hassan Ali teaches students of Bachelors and Masters in Technology.
The Hyderabad boy does not charge any fees from his 'students' and wants to teach a thousand engineers by end of 2020.
Speaking to ANI, Ali said, "I have been doing this since last year. I go to school in the morning and I am back home by 3 pm. I play and do my homework. By 6 pm, I go to the coaching institute to teach civil, mechanical and electrical engineers."
A video triggered an urge in the boy to take up teaching people almost double his age. "I was watching a video on the internet about Indians doing odd jobs in foreign countries even after studying. That is when it struck my mind that what is it that our engineers lack? I realised it is primarily technical and communication skills that they are not well aware of. Since my area of interest is designing, I started learning and teaching the same," Ali said.
Ali has noble thoughts behind doing this feat. "I don't charge money from my students because I want to do something for India. My parents have also been very supportive throughout," said the class 7 student.
Civil Engineer G Sushma, who is Hassan's student, said: "I have been coming here for a month and a half to learn civil software. He is younger to all of us here but manages to teach quite well. His skills are good and what he teaches is easy to comprehend.
