My name is Arnav Thakur.
Being born and brought up in India, I am well-versed in Hindi.
Also, having Hindi as a subject for 10 years in my academic life made me understand all the ins and outs of the language, and somewhat motivated me to help others see how beautiful this language is.
Then, to expand my literary knowledge, I did my Bachelor's and then my Master's degree in the English language. Currently, I'm pursuing a Ph.D. degree in the same.
In my spare time, I like singing, cooking, and, my favorite, singing while I'm cooking.
I consider myself an introvert who needs just a push to cross the line to be on the other side, with the expressive ones.
Here to teach and make friends.

Me as a Teacher
Been doing this for 5+ years now, and I can say that I'm well familiar with the way of interacting with someone who intends to learn something from you. I'm also a learner, so I know how to step into my students' shoes and not just show them the way but also be there, holding their hands, while they walk with their baby steps.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons generally include a basic layout of the language, which incorporates the fundamentals, the starters, and the advanced sections of the language. Proper attention is being paid to the grammar and the trivial technicalities, which make my students not just understand but also express themselves confidently in the language.
Contrary to the prevailing methods, in my class, I usually take the role of the listener, giving the spotlight to my students so that they can get comfortable in making mistakes and, in turn, learn from them.
To make the process easier, I adjust myself to the pace of my students and shape my teaching style so that they feel like they are being properly catered to.

This week we read a B2-level text with Arnav for the first time. I didn't find it too difficult and could understand most of it. This wouldn't have been the case 6 months ago when I was still a weak B1. I cannot recommend this patient, kind, and smart teacher enough. It's thanks to him I can finally see progress!

Another wonderful lesson with Arnav today! I had a presentation to prepare in Hindi and he helped me go through it and corrected my pronunciation. He’s always very patient, kind and loving in the way he teaches. Highly recommended.

Another great lesson; I feel like I learn a lot every time. If I could I'd have lessons with Arnav bhaai every day. He is the most patient and gentle teacher.

Another great class with Arnav bhai; we have had many so far, cannot remember. Arnav has a rare skill: he allows me to speak! He always gives feedback, he is not too lazy to correct me and he is super polite and friendly.
