Client Success Story of Shalaka Khandelwal:
Awesome classes!! I have never seen such a hard working, knowledgeable and dedicated teacher like Shalaka Sensei. She has explained all the concepts of grammar very well. She has done each and every Renshu with us. She gave us extra classes almost every week when needed. Even though the class was for 2 hours but she taught us everyday 2.5 hours to 3 hours. The course was for 6 months but the way she has covered very few teachers can do that even in 9-10 months also.
On top of that there were lot of speaking practices. I am extremely satisfied and grateful.
