Clearing CM1 wasn’t easy, but I genuinely couldn’t have done it without the support and guidance I got here.

We could talk openly...not just about academics, but also about life, goals, struggles, and everything in between. It never felt like just a tuition class; it felt like a space where I was truly understood and supported. A big thank you to Sir...he’s been more than a teacher. He’s been a mentor, a guide, and someone who genuinely cares. Always ready to help, always encouraging, and always patient. I’m thankful for everything. This journey would have been much harder without this coaching, and I’ll always be grateful for being a part of it.
