I love your style of tutoring for involving me through participatory discussion on the subject matter. Though we are a thousand miles away I feel as if I am in a practical class.

Highly recommend
Shagun is a trustworthy teacher because she is a well read and well educated teacher. She always understands her students psychologically and I highly recommend her for teaching.
Having attended multiple IELTS schools across the lower mainland, I can truly say that Shagun offers the best classes. In one week she was able to teach me important and useful information that I had never been taught before. Overall, Shagun is an amazing teacher and I highly recommend her lessons. Definitely life-changing!
Iāve attended her classes for 4-5 months now and I have to say by far the most patient, empathetic, and the most understanding teacher iāve ever met. She really understands what youāre struggling with and she never gets mad about it. Instead, she works with you to make it better and she comes up with new strategies that youāre comfortable with. Sheās definitely a pleasure to work with and someone you would want to know in your lifetime.
I really think Shagun is the best teacher. she helped me a lot. she introduced me to a lot of new words. My English had improved, also she always encourages me and built my confidence.
Shagun is an excellent teacher who understands childrenās strength and weakness. She helped my sonās to improve his writing skills and comprehension. After my sonās followed this class with shagun Iām so happy to say I get many positive comments from the class teacher in school about his growth. I take this opportunity to thank shagun for her excellent service towards my son.
