Turning Reading into an Intellectual Adventure

Habits aren't built by willpower. They are built by connections.
Here is why your child won't want to miss a session.

We create personalised books tailored to the child's reading level and provide one-on-one reading mentorship on weekends, led by top college students in India. They interact with children like their "Didi/Bhaiya" and read interesting, personalised books, such as The Jungle Book, Peter Pan .etc, to ignite a spark of reading, build strong critical thinking and conversational skills.

Not a Tutor.A Role Model.

We recruit the top 1% of college studentsโ€”Debaters, Student Council Leaders, and Toppers. They aren't here to correct grammar. They are here to pass the torch.

The "Un-Schooling" Method.

we don't tell them what to think. we ask them how they think

In school, your child is rewarded for memorizing the 'Right Answer.' Here, the 'Right Answer' doesn't exist. We use the Socratic Method.

We ask difficult, open-ended questions that force your child to build an argument from scratch. We don't correct their grammar; we challenge their logic. When a child realizes their opinion matters, they stop mumbling and start leading.

Step 1: The Detective Work (Reading)

They read because a friend is waiting.

Step 2: The Hot Seat (Thinking)

It feels like a game, not a homework.

Step 3: The Soapbox (Speaking)

It becomes their favorite hour of the week.

What a "Bookstaken" breakthrough sounds like.

Student: "I wish I was Spider-Man. I would beat up all the bad guys."

Mentor: "That sounds fun! But... what makes Spider-Man a Hero? Is it his powers? Or is it something else?"

Student: "Um... he saves people? Even when he is tired?"

Mentor: "Exactly. A bully beats people up. A Hero helps people up. So... which one do you want to be?"

Student (Smiling): "The helper."

This is the moment critical thinking is born.

Never ask "How was class?" again.

We know you are busy. That's why after every session, we send you the 'Dinner Table Cheat Sheet.' We tell you exactly what sparked your child's imagination, so you can have the smartest conversation of your life over dinner.

"Hi Anjali! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Just finished a great session with Rahul."

๐ŸŒŸ The Win: I loved how he argued that the Villain wasn't 'evil,' just 'lonely.' That was such a mature observation!

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Ask him at dinner: Ask him 'Why did the Wolf lie?' He has a crazy theory about it that I think he'd love to tell you.

See you next week!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How is this different from tutoring or English classes?
Tutoring teaches grammar and comprehension for exams. We build critical thinking and confidence through 1-on-1 book discussions with college mentors. Your child learns to think independently, not memorize answers.
Q: My child doesn't like reading. will this work?
Most children don't hate readingโ€”they hate boring books and being tested on them. We pick books based on their interests (sports, adventure, mystery) and make reading feel like a conversation with a cool older sibling, not homework.
Q: will my child actually complete books?
Yes. We read together during sessions (20 min reading + 40 min discussion), so there's no "homework pressure." Most books are completed in 4-6 weekly sessions, and children often ask to read ahead because they're genuinely curious.
Q: How do you ensure my child's safety with online mentors?
Every mentor is a verified college student from Tier 1 institutions, rigorously interviewed for empathy and communication. All sessions are on Zoom (recorded for quality), and you receive WhatsApp updates after every session.
