11 hours48 modules3 enrolled

A full year of English tuition for Class 8 on the CBSE syllabus, following Poorvi — the new NCERT reader that replaced Honeydew — lesson by lesson. Each session takes one piece: what to watch for before the class reads it, the grammar and writing skill that unit carries, how the paper asks for it, worked examples, read-aloud practice and a marked sheet. Covers every grammar point Poorvi teaches and every discourse it sets, including the notice, the letter of complaint and the article.

48 daily sessions of 10–15 minutes. Follows: Poorvi — Textbook of English for Grade 8 (NCERT, First Edition May 2025, Reprint 2026-27).
