Is this course right for a Pune student?
Most Pune schools follow the Maharashtra Board (MSBSHSE), with CBSE, ICSE/ISC and Cambridge schools alongside. We teach the CBSE, ICSE/ISC, Cambridge IGCSE, GSEB and NIOS computer subjects, not the MSBSHSE computer paper itself, so this course suits a Pune student in one of those schools.

Students from around Pune
A student anywhere in Pune can take IGCSE Grade 10 Computer Science (CS) with us — Aundh, Baner, Bangalore or East included — because the class is online and there is no centre to travel to. Pune sits in Maharashtra, where the Maharashtra Board (MSBSHSE) runs alongside the national boards, so we are asked about both.
How Pune students attend
Every class is live at Indian Standard Time, in a small batch or one-to-one. Nothing is pre-recorded, so a student in Pune asks questions in the moment, exactly as they would in a classroom. Recordings are provided for revision only.

I'm deeply impressed by the supportive environment fostered by Kajal Ma'am during the Kwickrevision workshop. Her approach not only facilitates a thorough understanding of the subject matter but also encourages a collaborative and nurturing learning experience. This workshop stands out as one of the best I've ever attended, and I attribute much of that to Kajal Ma'am's exceptional guidance.
