We are happy to feature Ranjit Menon, a skilled Spoken English tutor from Bangalore. He carries over three years of teaching experience and has taught many students from different age groups. Ranjit is a committed tutor with vast experience. His thorough knowledge of English and colloquial, as well as written Hindi, has helped him stand ahead of the rest. His ability to connect with his students and his unique teaching methods are often praised by his students.
An engineer by profession, Ranjit is specialised in machine design production technology. He has worked as a senior executive in manufacturing industries across different states such as Bombay, Gujarat and Pune. He has taught technical, manufacturing and management lessons to senior executives in organisations in his professional career. However, his journey as a Spoken English tutor started after his retirement.
Ranjit is now committed to providing quality Spoken English courses. In his classes, students get to learn English Grammar, Vocabulary and Basic Spoken English. He also offers Hindi language, BSc and Class I-V tuition classes. Ranjit believes that a strong command of English, diligence and an ability to connect with students are few skills required to be a successful Spoken English tutor.
According to one of his students - "I am taking spoken English classes from Ranjit Menon sir. After three classes, I am confident that I will be able to speak English very well in two months. Ranjit sir is a very good teacher. Thanks for your support. "
Our heartiest congratulations to Ranjit Menon!
Here is his experience & teaching journey in his own words:
Q1. When and how did you start working as a Spoken English Tutor?
Ans. I started training students in 2020. I was browsing the web when I came across the UrbanPro site, and it had an option to register as a tutor. I seemed to be meeting the requirements, so I registered. First, there was a trickle of enquiries, but I responded to every one of them and even purchased about 2000₹ of coins before I got my first student. After his review, the enquiries increased. Now, I am flooded with them and have 5 to 7 students at any time.
Q2. What skills are required to become a Spoken English Tutor?
Ans. A strong command of both the languages, the one you are communicating in and the one you are teaching, a pleasant voice, and a love for teaching are the most important things. The ability to connect is also an essential factor.
Q3. What, according to you, helps you stand out from other Spoken English Tutors on UrbanPro.com?
Ans. My exposure to people living in the North (where I have spent a large part of my life) and the South (where I come from) distinguishes me from other tutors. My voice skills have also been appreciated by many people I have met, sometimes only once or twice.
Q4. How did you come across UrbanPro.com?
Ans. I came across UrbanPro while browsing the web.
Q5. What was the turning point in your career?
Ans. My career's turning point came about six weeks after I got my first student when my students started writing good reviews about me. Then, I realised I am good at this.
Q6. How has UrbanPro.com helped you so far as a Tutor?
Ans. The support staff at UrbanPro are very patient and helpful; every single one of them and the platform itself is a very good one to teach. The payments are prompt. What more can a teacher ask for?
Q7. What percentage of your work comes from UrbanPro.com?
Ans. 85% of my work comes from UrbanPro.
