What parents often notice
Is Your Child Learning… or Just Attending Classes?
Today’s children are growing up surrounded by screens, fast-moving content and constant stimulation. For some children, this can make traditional learning feel disconnected or difficult to sustain.
02
Difficulty Focusing
“My child struggles to stay engaged during online classes.”
03
Avoiding Books
“My child doesn’t enjoy reading or opening the textbook.”
04
Hesitation
“My child knows the answer but doesn’t speak confidently.”
05
Loss of Interest
“My child quickly gets bored with conventional classes.”
06
Need for Connection
“My child needs someone who understands them before expecting them to learn.”
Every child learns differently. Sometimes the first step is not teaching more — it is understanding better.
Sometimes the child doesn’t need more pressure. They need a different way to connect with learning.
The ChildFirst difference
Before I Teach, I Connect.
Every child has a different personality, pace and way of learning. I first build rapport, understand the child and create a comfortable learning environment. Then we gradually move towards focused, purposeful learning.

Understand

Engage

Focus
Gradually develop attention and participation.
Learn

The person behind ChildFirst
Meet Shriram
I began teaching children during the pandemic, initially to support young learners adapting to online education. What began as a way to help children gradually became a deeply meaningful part of my professional journey.
I bring more than 20 years of professional experience in Project and Transition Management within the Banking, Financial and Insurance Services sector. I am also a qualified Life and Corporate Career Guidance Coach.
Together, these experiences have shaped my approach to teaching — structured, patient, communicative and deeply focused on understanding the individual child.
“I believe that language is more than grammar and syntax. It is a way for a child to express ideas, build confidence and discover their own voice.”

Helpful answers
A Few Things Parents Often Ask
Every child and family is different. A conversation is the best way to understand whether the approach feels right.
Ask a QuestionWhich ages and grades do you work with?
The primary age group is 6–14 years, with a focus on children studying in CBSE and ICSE, Grades 1–6.
Is this regular English or Hindi tuition?
English and Hindi are the learning areas, but the approach begins with rapport, engagement and the child’s individual way of learning—not simply completing a textbook.
Are sessions personalised?
Yes. The child’s age, grade, comfort, interests, learning needs and pace shape the goals and session approach.
Can you support a child who struggles with online learning?
The approach is designed to make online learning more conversational, interactive and personally meaningful, while gradually building focus and participation.
How are program fees decided?
An initial consulting fee of ₹999 applies. After that, program fees are customised based on the child’s age, grade, learning needs and session frequency.
How do we begin?
Start with a parent conversation about your child’s strengths, interests and current challenges. From there, we can decide whether ChildFirst feels like the right fit.
