I use these puzzles to train your brain to spot patterns quickly. Whether you are prepping for CUET or just trying to improve your calculation speed, these drills are about building the mental reflexes you need to save time during actual papers. ### Building Logic, Not Just Memory Many students come to me saying they struggle with Maths. They try to memorize every formula in the book, only to get stuck when the exam paper throws a curveball. That is where these brain teasers come in. They are not just for fun. They force you to step outside the standard syllabus and use lateral thinking. ### Why Practice Puzzles? - **Pattern Recognition:** Competitive exams like CUET, SSC, and Bank PO do not just test your math. They test your ability to see the logic behind the numbers. If you can solve a riddle, you can solve a complex equation. - **Speed & Accuracy:** I focus on 'hack methods' and Vedic-style shortcuts. My goal is to reduce your calculation time so you can spend more time on difficult, high-scoring questions. - **Mental Agility:** The brain is a muscle. If you only practice textbook problems, you get lazy. Puzzles keep your mind sharp and ready for surprises. ### My Classroom Approach in Janakpuri I run my classes at the Institute of Maths, Science and Commerce in Janakpuri with a simple philosophy: if your concept is clear, no exam is too tough. We do not do rote learning here. We use digital smart boards for visual learning and have face-to-face doubt counters so you never leave a session confused. If you are preparing for entrance exams or just want to fix your foundations in Class 10-12, bring your books, show up on time, and we will get to work. ## About Ankur Ajmani I am Ankur Ajmani, and I believe that if your concepts are clear, no exam is too tough.
