A passionate tutor with innovative methods of teaching
My experience with Sifna Madam was remarkable. The twenty day course was really advantageous. I was too weak in English grammar and speaking. After the course, there is a considerable improvement in my language skills. The great speciality of Sifna Madam is that, she pinpoints the mistakes and guides us in rectifying them. She also helped me expand my vocabulary. Everyday, she gave new topics to talk on, which built my confidence. She is an enthusiastic teacher and an extraordinary person as well. Her friendly manner and engaging mode of interaction is truly helpful. She gave several tips and tricks for being well-versed in English. My attitude towards English language changed entirely after undertaking the course.
