Physics Wallah’s Journey
Alakh Pandey himself wanted to become an IITian, but because of his humble background, he was not able to fulfill his dream. He went to Harcourt Butler Technical University to do mechanical engineering. His family’s economic condition is not good. Knowing this, he started teaching JEE/NEET aspirants during his graduation.
Knowing the condition of a poor student, In 2016, he started a YouTube channel to give free physics and chemistry lectures to JEE/NEET aspirants. In an interview, Alakh Pandey admitted, “In the first year of my Youtube journey, I wasn’t aware of Youtube monetization.” In the first year, he got 10000 subscribers on his Youtube channel. Alakh realizes that he can’t do everything alone as things paced up. In 2017 he decided to launch his app and started planning.
Physics Wallah App Launch
In 2019, He met with Prateek Maheswari, an IITian. After a few meetings, Alakh and Prateet find they share great synergies. And Prateek becomes the co-founder of the company. Prateek is a tech guy who helped Alakh in the PW app launch in 2020.
