What is the course structure?
The course is divided into 10 LIVE classes of one hour each, with each class covering one major topic/sub-topic. An English expert would be conducting the class, with the child being able to see the trainer LIVE through a computer/mobile phone, and would be able to chat and respond to polls LIVE. All you would need is a good WiFi connection, and preferably a computer to engage your child with engaging content created by The Hindu Group!
