Top Tutor Bavdhan, Pune 7 yrs of Exp 1 student 165 hrs of classes completed 350 per hour Online Classes I have 100% success rate with students clearing class 11 school exams and 75% success rate of score above 85%. Fee structure of class 11 is meant for normal curriculum, not NEET preparation. A request for those who are booking demo - 1. Please book demo only if you are genuinely interested in taking classes. Because when you book a demo, I have to pay for it with my hard earned money. And if you dont show up at demo, I loose all that money and time. 2. Kindly check my profile, credentials, fee structure before booking demo. Talk with your parents about it and then book demo, because if you take demo and then dont proceed with classes citing too high prices, or doubt on my credentials as I am in some faraway city, or even that your parents are not allowing, then again, I loose all money from demo booking and also I get a bad rep that I am not a good teacher. 3. If you are genuinely interested in taking classes and you are ok with my fee and credentials, please take demo and let me know after that if you liked demo or not. Because while I am waiting for your response, I may loose potential students, who actually would have taken class with me. Kindly understand that Covid situation has been hard on all us tutors, and if you frivolously book demos without checking whole profile of a tutor and fee structure, you are troubling them financially and psychologically.
