Odisha teacher dances his way to kids’ lessons

A video showing unique teaching method of a school teacher from Odisha is now winning people’s heart and for all the right reasons. The clip, that is now going viral on social media, was captured in Lamtaput upper primary school of Odisha’s Koraput district.

In the video, the in-charge headmaster of the school — Prafulla Kumar Pathi — sways his hips, sprawls on floor, sprints around the classroom and gesticulates while singing from a book. The best part is that the students too join in and chant their lessons in unison.

Popularly known as the “dancing sir” of Koraput, 56-year-old Pathi has been teaching the students in his unique style since 2008.

“I discovered that teaching should be made fun and not monotonous. So I devised my mode of education,” said Pathi.
