AVAILABLE FOR: Cursive handwriting and phonics coaching

There are numerous students who face problems at school because of their handwriting. Despite having high academic talents, it is discouraging to see how many students' handwriting affects their academic achievement, as illegible handwriting frequently results in misconceptions and poorer grades. "I started handwriting classes because I wanted to solve this problem for them. The art of teaching, akin to witnessing a caterpillar metamorphosing into a butterfly, fills me with awe and satisfaction. I aspire to empower students to communicate effectively through legible and elegant handwriting," says Kagilkar.

RECOMMENDED BY: Prasanna Sawant, father of Advait Sawant, 9

"Ms Kagilkar's subject matter expertise is quite brilliant and equally supported by her teaching style. She keep the kids engaged throughout the sessions. We can clearly observe the improvement in our child's handwriting and this also being acknowledged by his teachers."
