Beyond the Classroom — A STEM Education Journey in Bangladesh
Why do I teach? Because in Bangladesh, a student's educational outcome is still largely determined by their postal code. A child in a Dhaka cantonment school has access to resources, trained teachers, and opportunities that a child in a rural literacy school does not. I believe that is a solvable problem.
I designed the Math Bootcamp and the Open Problem Solving Library to solve one specific problem: students in Bangladesh lack access to structured, high-quality problem-solving material that bridges the gap between school textbooks and Olympiad-level thinking. Every handout, every original problem, and every workshop is a piece of infrastructure designed to close that gap.
As President of the St. Joseph Higher Secondary School Math Club, I built programs that serve over 700 students across Dhaka — not just those preparing for Olympiads, but also students from under-resourced schools who attend our literacy program. The results are measurable: students who could not attempt an unfamiliar problem six months ago are now solving combinatorial proofs and writing code. That is the impact I care about.
Through the Open Problem Solving Library, I publish free, open-access educational resources in mathematics, physics, competitive programming, and astronomy — downloaded by students preparing for BdPhO, IAAC, national mathematics Olympiads, and anyone who simply wants to learn beyond their school syllabus. No paywall, no registration, no barriers.
The long-term vision is to build an open educational ecosystem for Bangladesh where knowledge is freely available, where curiosity is encouraged, and where every student has the opportunity to become the next generation of problem solvers, scientists, and innovators that Bangladesh needs. That is why I build.
