Frequently asked questions
Which ages do you teach?
Children aged 7–13.
How is the programme structured?
There are two levels, Basic and Advanced. They're based on skill, not age. Every student completes Basic first, then moves up to Advanced.
My child already speaks well. Do they still need Basic?
Yes. Basic builds the voice, clarity and structure habits that advanced skills like debate depend on, and confident speakers polish them quickly.
Are the classes live?
Yes. All classes are live and online, taught by Karishma Shah, so children can join from anywhere in India or abroad.
How long are classes and how often?
Classes are 45 minutes long, three times a week. Choose a Monday, Wednesday and Friday batch or a Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday batch, at 2, 3, 4 or 5 pm IST. Times are shown in your own time zone on the site.
Can children outside India join?
Yes. Classes are live online, and our site and booking form show every batch time in your local time zone.
My child is very shy. Will this suit them?
Yes. Classes start with low-pressure games, and no child is pushed onto the "stage" before they're ready.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Book a free trial class and see how your child responds before you decide.
What does my child need?
A laptop or tablet with a camera and microphone, a stable internet connection and a quiet spot.
Is it one-to-one or a group?
Both. Choose one-to-one personal classes, or a small group of just 2 to 4 children so every child gets plenty of speaking time.
What language are classes taught in?
Classes are taught in English.
What are the fees?
We share the fees personally after the free trial class, once we know which programme and format suit your child.
