About

How I teach

  • Concepts before formulas

    Every topic starts with why it works, so formulas make sense instead of being memorised.

  • Your school's syllabus

    Practice from the textbook your child uses, then from past board papers.

  • A short test every two weeks

    To find gaps early, with the marks shared with you.

  • Help with homework

    Doubts from school homework are cleared once the day's topic is done.

Home or online

Classes at your home, or online

Many students start at home and move online in exam months, or the other way round. Both follow the same plan and notes.

  • At your home

    Within 5 km, Monday to Saturday. A quiet table and the school textbooks are all a class needs.

    • No travel charge within 5 km
    • A parent at home for younger students

  • Online

    Live video classes with a shared whiteboard on weekday evenings. Notes are sent as PDFs after each class.

    • A laptop or tablet works better than a phone
    • The same fees as home classes

Questions

What parents ask

What happens in the trial class?

A normal class on a topic your child finds hard, so you can both judge whether the teaching suits them. It's free.

Do you teach in Hindi too?

Yes. Classes can be in English, Hindi or a mix, whichever your child is more comfortable with.

Can siblings or friends study together?

Yes, in groups of up to three from the same class, at a lower fee for each student.

How will I know how my child is doing?

Test marks are shared every two weeks, with a short progress note each month and a call each term.
