English with Dehati Madam’: Kaushambi’s ‘Yashoda ma’am’ winning hearts with her tutorial videos
In the one year since she started the channel, Yashoda has uploaded 151 videos, and 128 reels to her social media accounts. In the description of her YouTube channels, Yashoda specifically mentions that she hails from a low-income family.
LUCKNOW In her signature affable tone, ‘Yashoda ma’am’ dropped a surprise for her 1.36 lakh-strong YouTube family on Monday. “Friends, I have been invited to deliver the ‘Josh Talk’ in Gurugram. Never expected this so early in my YouTube journey. While I realise it is a big opportunity, my husband and I have never travelled to the big city,” she said in her latest video.
Minutes after she uploaded the clip, a visibly happy but nervous Yashoda was comforted by her loyal fan base, which has been growing ever since she started her YouTube channel in May 2022. Positive comments like — “You should go, ma’am”; “Don’t feel nervous”; and “We are with you, ma’am” — have been posted by her viewers/students to support Yashoda in her journey to glory.
If you have somehow missed her social media accounts, here is a small introduction to the woman, who hardly needs an introduction among English learners, particularly from rural backgrounds.
Yashoda Lodhi, a resident of Sirathu nagar panchayat in Kaushambi, runs a prolific YouTube channel — ‘English with Dehati Madam’ — where she teaches spoken English and correct usage of grammar to her audience, which mostly comprises village women like herself.
