About Us

Next Chanakya is an online tutoring platform for U.S. school students, kindergarten through 12th grade. We teach math, science, English Language Arts, coding, and competition prep in live classes of no more than five students — after school, in every U.S. time zone.


We started with a simple observation: in a class of thirty, the question a student doesn't ask is the concept they fall behind on. So we built our classes around the opposite idea — a room small enough that every question gets asked, and every question gets answered on the board.

Why Families Choose Us

Choosing a tutor is a decision about your child's time and confidence, not just a subject. Here is what we do differently:

  1. Classes capped at five students. One tutor teaches at most five students. That cap is the product: it means your child gets asked questions every class, gets stuck out loud, and gets unstuck before the hour ends. Education researchers studying intensive "high-dosage" tutoring consistently point to consistent, small-group sessions as one of the most effective academic supports — our format is built on that model.
  2. A syllabus organized by state and grade. Our lessons follow the grade-by-grade sequence of your child's school year, with dedicated syllabi for California, Texas, New Jersey, New York, and Illinois — so tutoring reinforces what school is teaching, instead of running past it.
  3. The same structured hour, every week. Doubts first. Then the concept, worked step by step on the board. Then every student solves a problem live. Then a recap and a practice set for the week. Students know what to expect, and parents know what was covered.
  4. Experienced, subject-focused tutors. Our tutors teach the subject they know deeply, live and interactively — this is face-to-face teaching over video, not a playlist of recordings.
  5. Schedules that respect after-school life. Weekly classes run in every U.S. time zone — 3:30 PM Pacific, 4:30 PM Mountain, 5:30 PM Central, 6:30 PM Eastern — at the same time each week, so tutoring fits around homework, sports, and everything else.
  6. A free demo before any commitment. Watch a real class run before you decide anything. If it isn't right for your child, you've lost nothing.

What We Teach

Every subject is taught at your child's grade level, from kindergarten through senior year of high school:

  • Math — arithmetic through algebra, geometry, and calculus.
  • Science — biology, chemistry, and physics.
  • English Language Arts — reading, grammar, and writing.
  • Coding & computer science — logic, problem solving, and real programming.
  • Competition & olympiad prep — for students who want problems beyond the school curriculum.
  • Test prep — SAT, ACT, and AP.
  • Social studies and Hindi — where the state syllabus includes them.

The full grade-by-grade detail lives in the syllabus for your state: start with California, Texas, New Jersey, New York, or Illinois.

We also serve homeschooling families looking for structured, live instruction in specific subjects, and students preparing for academic competitions who want coached practice rather than solo grinding.
