I have been teaching “SIMPLE SECRETS BEHIND DIFFICULT ACCOUNTING-CONCEPTS”. These secrets are a result of umpteen mistakes I have committed in the course of preparing more than 700 real-life balance-sheets and over 150 real-life project-reports, all manually. In my method, entire syllabus can be covered in about one-tenth of the time taken by traditional method. And, these secrets become a life-long asset for the learner. Also, studying advanced chapters becomes very much easier. I am from Bangalore. Anybody interested?
