BYJU’S student aces National Football Championship

BYJU’S student Poonnen Paul, 17, from Coimbatore, achieved in the CISCE National Sports and Games 2022. Currently, a student of K’sirs International School aims to excel with good marks in his 12th boards and believes that studying is as important as any passion that he wants to pursue.

He started playing football at the age of nine and strengthened his passion by being a part of extracurricular activities. Poonnen began studying with BYJU’S in 2020 during the lockdown and has since been able to strengthen his problem-solving, experimentation, and critical thinking skills. Now in class 12, Poonnen has been confidently managing both his studies and passion for football at the same time.

BYJU’S has always believed that sports help in building positive self-esteem in children and provides the unfiltered foundation in life that develops skills for the future.

Poonnen Paul, BYJU’S Student says, “I always believe in maintaining a balance between studies and extracurricular activities. However, to balance both my priorities, I needed a solution that allowed me to study at my pace, and BYJU’S has helped me do that in the last four years. BYJU’S has really helped me manage my time without having to worry about giving up on my passion”.

Expressing joy at Poonnen’s achievement, BYJU’S spokesperson “We at BYJU’S strongly believe that sports and education go hand in hand. We design our content in such a way that it suits every student and make them fall in love with learning”.
