In a small town in Uttar Pradesh, a boy named Faizal Khan grew up in a simple home. His father worked hard as a contractor, and his mother took care of the family. Money was tight, but Faizal had big dreams.
As a young boy, Faizal wanted to join the Indian Army. He tried three times, first for Sainik School, then for a polytechnic college and finally for the NDA. But each time, he failed.
Heartbroken but not defeated, he didn't give up.

With no options left, Faizal started tutoring a student. To everyone's surprise, that student topped his class. Word spread, and soon, more students came to him.
But life was still hard. One evening, after teaching all day, he counted his money, only Rs. 40. The bus fare home was Rs. 90. Too proud to ask for help, he walked the entire distance, tired and hungry.
Sitting by the Ganga that night, he made a decision, he would start his own coaching center.
With help from friends, he opened a small coaching class. But success brought enemies. One night, his coaching center was bombed.
Instead of quitting, Faizal became more determined. The next morning, his students came with brooms, helping him clean up. Their support gave him the much-needed strength.

One day, a company offered him Rs. 107 crore to work for them. But he refused.
"My students need me," he said.
For him, teaching is not about money; it is about changing lives.
Today, Khan Sir is one of India's most famous teachers. His YouTube channels have millions of subscribers. He earns well, but his real happiness comes from seeing his students succeed.
