5 THINGS YOU SHOULD AVOID WHILE SELECTING YOUR COACHING CENTRE

Better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a great mentor”
…..Japanese proverb

Yes , we all need the right guidance and mentor to facilitate us through the right track , whether be it in life or be it in Academics. Its said that “the influence of teachers extends beyond the classroom well into the future” . Truly , a good teacher can lead us to the right path and helps in converting our aspirations into realities. Its however very important to get hold of the right mentorship . In this globalized world of rat race and fierce competition , when everybody is fighting neck to neck with each other for competing to get their names enlisted in their dream colleges and fulfil their aspirations, the need for proper guidance and coaching have increased all the more. This brings us to the question how should we go for the right institution that would lend us a proper guidance and coaching? Also , in this huge competitive world , often the guidance from schools or colleges don’t suffice alone. In that case, we need the help of some mentors , to sail our ways for a better future.
The increasing pressures of competitive exams have in turn increased the demand of coaching centres for that extra special guidance . Having said so , its important to keep in mind that we can see numerous such centres around us , alluring us with all their lucratives. We often get confused while it comes for selecting among them the best one and hence we often make mistakes , isn’t so? Now what are the parameters to follow and not to follow while choosing the right coaching centre? Let’s focus on those one should avoid when comes to the selection:

5 THINGS YOU SHOULD AVOID WHILE SELECTING YOUR COACHING CENTRE:
NEVER GO FOR A NOVICE COACHING INSTITUTION : The first and foremost question you need to ask yourself before choosing a coaching centre is the years of experience it has. If you find it comparatively new and doesn’t bear any proven history of success, its better not to go for it. A coaching centre , which is running for at least 10 years and has a tradition of producing successful candidates , can be the ideal one. Mention can be made here of VMC , which is having a proven track record of producing thousands of IITIANS every year , running successfully for 3 decades.
DON’T CHOOSE WITHOUT SEEING THE FACULTY: This one is certainly the most important since its already mentioned that only the best teachers and mentors can lead you to the right track of success . Hence , pick up an institution that has the best of the faculty in reality, who have mentored some of the best students who have secured ranks in competitive exams or so on. Infact a decent coaching class bears qualitative faculty and would never compromise on it.
At VMC , you can experience the best of faculties from all over the country, especially you would get guidance from our mentors , all of whom are ex-IITians!.

JACK OF ALL TRADES MASTER OF NONE: It’s very lucrative to choose one which offers a plethora of courses from multiple domains and from here and there in their bucket. However its advisable to go for one which specialises in one or two domains of the same nature. For example avoid one which boasts to specialise on all from engineering to medical to CA to UPSC to banks and so on. In such , there is very little possibility that you would end up getting the best of both the worlds. Instead choose one which either specialises on Engineering- Medical or simply on government competitive exams.
NEVER OPT FOR A TIME-CONSTRAINT INFLEXIBLE COACHING CENTRE : In this fast-paced environment, you have to juggle both your school/ college schedules along with the coaching institutions. Hence you require a coaching class which offers you time-friendly and flexible schedules that suit your own pace. Pick up the one which gives you qualitative learning with flexibility and not specific to any time boundaries.
SAY NO TO LARGE BATCHES AND NON-REFUNDABLE STRUCTURES: There are thousands of Coaching classes which has some innumerable students in a batch, thus hindering personalised attention. Also some are way expensive and don’t have any non-refundable fee structures. It’s advisable not to go for these. Instead, select one which has limited and quality batch size and which has a fee refundable structure in case if things don’t turn the way you expected.

Thus , these are the must things you should avoid when comes to the question of selection of right coaching centre.. Having said so , let’s have a quick brief for the right things you should check before joining any centre:
 Infrastructure and quality content
 Teaching methodology or pedagogy
 Study materials , mock tests and crash courses
 Periodic evaluations
 Feedback structure
 Online classes and e learning facilities
 Demo or trial classes before joining.

Thus , picking up the right guidance will help you facilitating in the long run. It can be mentioned that we at VMC has evolved for a unique system of pedagogy and our qualitative content is provided by our mentors-ex-IITians. Infact our tradition of success over the years give witness to the credibility and faith that we and you all have on us . To conclude , remember that a qualitative mentoring and learning can only fetch you fruitful results , be it now , today and forever!
