Meghalaya Teacher's Classroom Ramp Walk Activity Goes Viral, Wins Hearts Online

A heartwarming video from St. Dominic Savio Higher Secondary School in Garobadha, Meghalaya, is winning praise across the internet. In a creative classroom twist, teacher Tengsmart M Sangma turned an ordinary lesson into a confidence-boosting experience by organising an impromptu ramp walk for his students right inside the classroom.

The video, shared by Sangma on Instagram, quickly went viral, amassing over 1.7 million views. It shows students walking confidently between desks while their classmates cheer, with some adding flair through dance moves, poses, and even role-play based on characters from their syllabus.

"When I asked them to act according to their life aims, the students performed confidently. Some even mimicked scenes from a chapter titled 'The conceited python,' which was part of their class curriculum. The video showcases activities directly linked to their coursework," Sangma wrote in the caption.

In a recent post, he shared another emotional moment and wrote, “What I fear most is saying goodbye to this gifted learner.”
