Students, in their words
What ACCA students say
“Preparing for these exams using Manikanta Sir’s lectures was a wonderful experience.”
The lectures covered all topics in depth with ample examples. The availability of a tutor whom you can approach anytime, with any doubt, be it about the subject or your career/future planning- is something that proved very useful for me.
“I took lectures for ACCA Strategic professional papers of APM and SBR, both of which were tough papers to crack.”
Manikanta Sir made sure that I had all the necessary resources and always found a way to make it easy for me to learn the technical aspects. The Focus on “Why” rather than “What” and “How” made the subjects much more interesting and easier.
“Attempting an ACCA paper (FR) for the first time and juggling college course work along with preparation already made me nervous.”
But Manikanta Sir’s lessons were instrumental in making me confident about the exam. Taking up a professional certification requires being able to think independently rather than being only book-educated, and Sir ensures that we realize the importance of gaining knowledge.
“I had watched Sir's lecture playlist on Youtube for PM subject of ACCA to clear my concepts.”
I thoroughly enjoyed PM because of him. The way he teaches the subject makes you fall in love with it. It was such an amazing experience for me as Sir is someone who relates the concepts in real life and makes us understand in a way that there is no need to mug up anything.
“The subjects I took lectures for were SBR and APM. Both the subjects had technical aspects which needed great level of conceptual understanding.”
Manikanta sir ensured that I was comfortable with all the areas of syllabus, especially for SBR, he provided me with charts which were of great use for pre-exam revision.
“It is the simplicity in his teaching methodology where he breaks down every topic in depth through a diagram that brings in the complete clarity and confidence in a topic.”
Not to forget the examples, case studies and live demonstrations he gives.
