~ RAJESH SONI, AAROHI’S PARENT

Ms. Bharti Aggarwal has been Aarohi’s mentor through every stage:

“When Aarohi first joined, she would fear challenging questions and often quit. Over time, we worked together on breaking concepts into simple steps. The goal was always to make her understand, not just memorize. Today, she applies her learning confidently to real-world problems. I’ve seen her grow from hesitation to true mathematical thinking.”

Six years in, Aarohi’s story shows that with the right mix of guidance, customization, and curiosity, math can become a subject of strength and joy.
