Living Book is a concept of education introduced by AFRC in 2005. over the years many personalities across the world came forward and happily became part of this educational movement. The concept behind Living Book is very simple and easy to adopt.  Through the Living Book concept individual are treated as books and students are encouraged to "read" them. Once the student reach the stage in which they could communicate well through this methodology, they are introduced to a new avenue of meaningful interactions. Living Books proved to be of great help when students required expert guidance in specialised areas. Once trained, it is then the turn of the students to be Living Books. By interacting openly with fellow students, the Living Books gain self awareness and we have found them more self motivated and the level of self esteem races ahead as they are considered not as mere students, but as individuals who deserve attention and listening years.

Besides being used as an effective communication training tool, we have found Living Book concept extremely useful to train slow learners with the help of `student Living Book` who are well advanced in their studies.

                    Our philosophy of education

After 12 years of grassroots level training and research, we observed that students who gathered confidence with their language and communication skills easily related with the world through various activities. With AFRC - LCL training methodology, students are encouraged to read and review classic literature, listen and appraise international music, watch classic inspirational movies and their creative talents like painting, sketching, writing and editing skills are honed through house journals, wall magazines, web journals and blogs.

Introverted students too find it a great way to express themselves in many activities like theater, literary appreciation, music and film criticisms. We have been successful in introducing various personalities from different walks of life and students collected first hand knowledge and skills from the maestros to widen their creativity and broaden their vision. Art is an essential tool of education, and education, we strongly believe is all about seeking the self.
