A neighbourhood tuition centre that does the ordinary things well.
Founded by two teachers who wanted smaller classes and honest feedback for parents.
Bright Banyan started in 2011 above a stationery shop on 12th Main, Indiranagar, when Meera Iyer and Rohan Nair left larger coaching factories to teach the way they actually believed in: small batches, real marking, and a straight word with parents when something wasn't working. The old banyan tree on the corner gave us our name, and a fair bit of shade on hot afternoons.
Fourteen years on, we are still on the same lane, now across two floors. We coach students from Class 6 through Class 12 on the CBSE, ICSE and Karnataka state syllabi, and we run tightly-planned prep for board exams and common entrance tests. We deliberately keep batches under twelve students. It is less profitable and far better teaching, and after all this time we are not about to change it.
Most of our families come by word of mouth from around Indiranagar, HAL, Domlur and CV Raman Nagar, and increasingly through our online batches from Chennai, Hyderabad, Colombo and Dhaka. Whether a child is sitting in Room 2 or joining from a laptop, the same tutor marks their work and the same monthly note goes home to a parent. We think that consistency is the whole job.
