I always had an interest in geography and that interest was increased much more once I joined this online module taught by Ajay sir. He shared a great deal of knowledge about various countries and places. The colorful, interactive map helped greatly while marking countries and cities on my own maps. The tests after all the modules aided my learning greatly.

“Going on a trip can be a thrilling adventure but it’s the planning and anticipation of the trip, not the actual trip, that makes travellers the happiest.
Maps present about the world by showing sizes and shapes of countries, locations of features, and distances between places. Personally this subject has helped me a lot. I would honestly like to confess that I was someone who had zero interest in geography. I didn’t know how many countries were there in the world, I had no idea about the capitals of the countries. As a matter of fact I even didn’t know about the various cities and places in India and I would think in mind “oh which is this place? I have never heard about this place”! I didn’t have a clear picture of all these things. But then I came across world geography as part of my IATA syallabus that changed my whole perception about this subject. I found this subject super interesting!
Time and experience changes everything. And now when somone speaks about some place or country, I think to myself “Oh this place is located in this country, this is here, it’s in India, it’s in USA” and I now know the exact location of the mentioned places.
The feeling of knowing something which others are not aware of gives us lot of happiness and a proud feeling. Now I can say that I am confident and have a lot of knowledge about all this which I would like to share if given an opportunity. Few months back I would ask people or google to find the location of a place but now my mind works like a map. Be it knowledge of time zone or changing horizons, cities, and what not! Learning them was a new experience and a roller coaster journey for me. I really enjoyed it. I Hope everyone loves exploring this vast subject. World geography is an important and a crucial topic for anyone in any age group
And if you are someone who wishes to get into the aviation & travel industrie, then you have to master this subject!! No matter what! There is no other way around!!”
