I think Tutela is one of its kind in the teaching space. Never have I come across a team of such dedicated teachers ready to help you at each step of the way. I went to Tutela at the end of 10th grade for SAT. In just 3 months, my score shot up by approximately 140 points. I truly believe that Anam Ma’am teaches SAT writing and reading in the best and easiest manner possible. I would also like to thank Ashish sir who not only taught me the entire SAT Physics and SAT Math syllabus in a month but also voluntarily helped me with my Math HL IA. Mukul Sir is also a wonderful teacher who would always welcome my doubts. Thanks to their support, I was able to score exceedingly well on the tests. Tutela has a wonderful learning environment for you where you get to have one on one sessions with the teachers. Also, every single member of the team is so warm and friendly. Unlike many other SAT or IB prep centres, the environment at Tutela is very encouraging and positive. I loved spending time here! Read More
