Compassionate, Smart and Rare find !

As a parent, I was looking for a compassionate and efficient teacher for my daughter. I was vert skeptical initially if getting an online teacher for my daughter was a good idea. But to my surprise, she was just the teacher I was looking for. It is very rare to find a teacher like her. Her diction, teaching methodologies , professional approach and strive to mover her students to next level is a rare find now-a-days. She has proved that online teaching works like a charm and can help build the foundation similar to in-person. We are almost done with 40 classes and will keep continuing the classes for sure ! Thanks a lot dear ma'am for boosting the confidence and love of English Language in your student !

A perfect teacher whom anyone can trust for cracking GRE / GMAT/ IELTS !!

She is well versed with all sorts of experience required for cracking the competitive exams . I approached her for IELTS and she guided me so well that I cracked IELTS with a score of 8 in first attempt under her guidance . I was particularly weak at IELTS writing and she explained all the required tricks and techniques for efficient IELTS writing. I referred my friends also to her for GMAT and GRE training . They too cracked their exams with their target scores . I highly recommend her for any sort of professional guidance.

Well Experienced and Simply the Best Trainer for IELTS/TOEFL

I was really struggling to get a competent trainer for IELTS as there are so many tutors online and you don't really know whom to trust. Ritu ma'am approached me and I really liked her first class. Unlike other tutors, she never insisted to get bulk advance payment and told me that I can pay for classes on day to day basis till the time I am completely sure of her quality of training. She is well versed with all sorts of Tricks and Techniques required for cracking Exams. Best part is that she is an IELTS examiner herself so she can guide you perfectly. It is only because of her expert guidance that I could crack IELTS with a band score of 8.5 in my first attempt itself. I highly recommend her for any professional guidance.
