De. A brief history of the college shows the then avant-garde ideas which enforced innovative and progressively radical mindsets for the upliftment of the community at large. The founder D.L. De returned to India after pursuing his M.A, Ph.D from London, he worked with an advisory board who wanted to set up a model institution for women. This advisory board consisted of eminent personalities.

Excellent experience bringing my son’s scores up. Individualized assessment, knowledgeable tutors in every discipline, small class size for group sessions. A great overall experience for tutoring and enhancement.

I really appreciated how helpful the instructors were and the engaging strategies that they used. I expected this ACT course to be intimidating but the environment is really supportive and my scores went up.

We wanted to let you know how happy we were with the ACT tutors we used from TEACH. We contacted them fairly late in the cycle but they were very good about making a workable schedule.
