"I have just completed a course on "Developing Effective Communication Skills", with Mr. Karthikeyan S (Karthik Nathan). He is one of the best language tutors. He redefines the way to learn a language quickly and effectively. He is master in customization of his training program in order to accomplish his trainees requirements. He is so sincere and dedicated in his teaching which I feel is motivating and encouraging to flow with the flow of the program. I give a Big Thumbs Up the way he teaches. "
Sakthivel
"Karthik is one of the very few trainers who identifies his students plus and minus in the very beginning. He has a unique method of analyzing students in order to provide the kind of training required for them. He is instrumental in reading people's mind which helps as a student to explain what we are looking for. After listening to the student requirement he will test the student ability before assuring what kind of scorecard improvement he can help with in what duration. (of course student effort should be considered) Moving on to his classes, he will teach four master class to each section in PTE, which at times, some students feels it might be out of topic but one could relate the connection he brought in at the end which is amazing. I want to personally thank him for the tips he provided for each and every section of task which help to grow in confidence. Finally, Karthik has become more than a tutor for me (Mentor). His valuable insights on reading people's mind help me to understand where i am in the society. Will recommend to go for his training at any given time. "

"I am an Engineer and have taken the PTE Academic program with you. Here are a few words on your teaching and mentoring abilities. 1. The teaching has been excellent end-to-end. I can experience a strong change in my pronunciation and oral fluency. 2. Your comprehensive training and timely assessment have undoubtedly helped improve progressively on my pronunciation and oral fluency to a great extent. 3. I appreciate your approach as you firmly believe that, â??if you can correct our basics, we can prosper in a better wayâ??. In short "You have given life to my English". 4. I am confident of scoring 80+ in my PTE Test."

"Rather than teaching Karthik would mentor you. He will introduce you the new dimension of this language. The techniques and methodologies evolved by him over his experience would definitely lead a way to you to compete with native speakers. I endorse Karthikeyan Saminathan for his teaching and mentoring abilities. I would definitely recommend students to enroll for his PTE Classes who are aiming for high PTE Band Scores. "
Ishwariya
"My name is Ishwarya, and I have undertaken an Intensive Learning Program on IELTS (Academic) with Karthik Nathan Sir. Certainly it is an affordable program that I would recommend to my friends for sure. Actually it was a matchless experience for me as I could gain the required knowledge for IELTS Academic Test. Also to mention, you taught me according to my abilities. I really want to say that you are so kind and polite. First I would like to say about learning Speaking section from you. Initially, I had a feeling of being upset or annoyed as a result of being unable to change the way I use to speak English, in fact I was lacking confidence to further with. Gradually I realised that the way you were progressing with your teaching I realised the fact that you were not only teaching me to understand, but also mentoring me by providing me with patterns of native English speakers to attain the desired output and had helped me change the way I word English. Secondly, when you started with Listening section, I was lacking attention and found it difficult to mark my answers. I remember that I could secure only B6 in my first test. Later, you taught me strategies to overcome barriers to listening and I gradually started improving as it was reflecting on my band score during the practice tests. This was possible only because of your mentoring abilities. In addition, reading section was really frustrating as I found it to be hard to understand the main idea of paragraph and in reading you helped me understand the various question specific strategies such as rapid reading, and information mapping which I found more useful to get answers swiftly.Finally, it was about teaching and mentoring me on academic writing task 1, and writing task 2. I could not believe if I could ever make it to your expectations. But your structured approach to teaching and mentoring writing skills made its way to possibilities. I am so glad to say that you have always motivated me to do things in positive way. I have the confidence that I will definitely score band 7 and above. "

"I have distrusted on my English abilities till the time my IELTS Mentor Mr Karthikeyan Saminathan (Karthik Nathan) spoke with me to understand my expectations. Further he had put me on a Placement Test to validate my English abilities. Prior to starting the IELTS classes, he helped me doing a bridge course in English Basics. He has a well-defined and structured framework for teaching IELTS to the expectations of the student. His step-by-step approach to each of the IELTS Modules is truly good. Being moderate to learning, I could understand the strategies and could implement the strategies positively. He has taking one to one class so it is very useful those who preparing for the IELTS Exam and he has a good knowledge having lots of ideas .Personally he is good and positive minded person. He Guided me step by step to prepare for IELTS exam. I certainly would recommend Mr Karthik Nathan to my friends. Thanking you Sir. "

"The training was very clear and detail. Mr. Karthik conducted the class in very professional manner. A lot of information was covered and at the end of each session Karthik will run through the course that was covered on that day, which help the student to remember everything in mind. The syllabus he covered was very helpful for the beginners.. His guidance and assignments provided was also very helpful. At the end of the course I had benefited in learning the basics and think through in English and I can now make a meaningful sentences. The instructor, Mr. Karthik is very easy to communicate and educated me with very interesting real life examples of the course materials. I enjoy learning about this material to help me do my job better. "

"I appreciate the true determination of my IELTS Mentor Mr Karthikeyan Saminathan (Karthik Nathan) in making me realise the importance of self-practice in graduating oneself from one band to its next. Ensuring that, I match my abilities to the standards of the band descriptors of my target band score should have not been an easy task to my mentor. He helped bring in me the hard working attitude towards each of the IELTS Modules and ensured that I apply what I have learnt to self-study practice. A step-by-step approach by my mentor, to different sections of each of the IELTS Modules have helped me gain a new and comprehensive insight in defining a strategy very specific to the questions to each of the modules. Today I realise, that the way I started answering to questions while speaking to anyone around me have changed the IELTS way. The more granular approach to getting the right answers to various questions of the IELTS Reading module with more live and hands-on practice sessions with real-time guided examples are truly good and of great help. The approach to cracking Listening and Writing modules are more practical and easy to understand and implement. More practice sessions and home assignments on these two modules are well acknowledged. I am confident of achieving an overall band score of 7+. I also understand that â??There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.â??"

"I got the great opportunity to meet Karthik sir, as a tutor for my IELTS preparation. He is highly knowledgeable and a kind person. He gave all the support and guidance, I needed to score high in IELTS exam in my first attempt itself. Even though, I shooted him with the arrow of questions, he gave explanations to all of them politely and patiently. To conclude, Karthik sir, is the master who works along with the student's efficiency, whatever level it may be. The student gets improvised with his skill and ability at the end of the training. "

Aspirants usually get confused when they start preparing for IAS. They're unsure how to get going, and what to research. Aspirants to IAS / IPS have numerous questions in mind about eligibility for the test, examination dates etc.
Many aren't sure whether or not coaching is necessary. The fears aren't baseless though. I would suggest to you to enrol yourself with one of the leading academies for IAS coaching and try to avail a mentor who could guide you to success!!
