Study Plus — an initiative of Score Plus — in partnership with Pearson Education is bringing Indian mathematician and the man behind the Super-30 revolution, Anand Kumar (pictured), for the first time to Doha for a seminar.

Limca Book of Records, Time magazine, Discovery Channel, New York Times, and people from diverse fields have acknowledged his contribution to upgrading the standards of learning.

A veteran in the field of education and ardent trainer, Anand is an expert in cracking the code for the JEE, the qualifying exam for the premier institution, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT).  More than 85 percent of his students, most of whom come from extremely poor backgrounds, clear the IIT JEE each year. 

Kumar’s financial hardships prevented him from studying in one of the world’s most prestigious universities, the Cambridge University, but planted a desire in him to do something for bright but underprivileged students who fade away without getting the right opportunities because of their financial constraints. This gave birth to one of India’s most successful education initiatives — the Super 30 revolution.  Super 30, which started as a silent social project, has been receiving appreciation from all over the world. 

Kumar will be here to share his experiences of his journey to success and provide insights into constructive learning that will help students improve their output and prepare them for future challenges. 

The seminar will be held at Birla Public school.
