Aoa,
Hope that everyone of you will be fine. Being a css aspirant, i went through these pages last year to look for English Essay teacher in Karachi as I needed a teacher who could check my Essay & guide me where I needed help. In this regard, I approached few teachers. My experiences with them are as follows. I am sharing my experiences here for the purpose of information so that you could choose your teacher wisely & according to your requirement.
1. First of all, I met with Sir, Yusuf Pathan, ageing more than 80 years at his home. He had a nice library of his own containing books on various topics. He gave me 10 minutes to write a few words on any topic so that he could assess my english expression. When i finished, he checked it & told me about the mistakes. After all this, I found him to be well-versed in rules of english grammar alongwith having sound general knowledge. Moreover, his fees was only 7000 for 1x student & 8000 if 2x students studied collectively at one time. The only shortcomings were that he was too slow owing to his growing age & other one; he used to talk too much which wasted too much time (since i had only 1 month left in exams hence i needed someone who could help me in this limited timeframe). Overall, I found him to be a good teacher as far as correcting english expression is concerned.
2. The second teacher that I approached was Sir Ramchand, living at Ibrahim terrace. He was around 70 years of age but had more active mind than Sir Yusuf. He did the same practice & asked me to write a few words on a given topic. On finishing the draft, he asked me to read it. I read a few sentences but he said that you have written a wrong introduction &
without checking rest of the draft, he said to me that you need help. He told me that he would take 15,000 rupees for teaching me Essay & Precis. So far so good, but when I started studying from him, I found out that he might be sound in english grammar & composition but he did not know much about writting English essay; and especially the quality of content that you need to produce for this competitive exam. Whenever I discussed any topic of Essay with him, I found him to be having no knowledge about it but he insisted on writing his mediocre & illogical points in my Essay or else he wouldn't check my essay. Once I wrote an essay & took to him for assessment. On returning it, he told me that you haven't written a single point of mine & hence gave me 25 out 100. I asked him to at least check my grammar but he did not even read the full essay & just gave me 25 because I did not write his points. Moreover, he always tried to not tell me anything extra as he wanted me to study at least 1x year from him, only then he will teach me properly; otherwise he would tell me only limited things. Seeing all this in the context of my upcoming exam after a month, I left after a week without getting my fee reimbursed.
3.After the exam, I have joined another teacher. Soon I will share my experience with him.

Awanshahal

Aoa everyone,
1. Previously, I had shared my experience of essay teachers in Karachi with you & told you that I will share another experience after sometime. That time has come & the new teacher is Syed Arshad Karim.
2. I met Sir Arshad at his residence in DHA. I told him that I needed help in essay & wanted to get them checked if he could help me in that regard. He told me although he had remained FPSC examiner of Political Science & had been teaching Political Science, Philosophy, Public Ad & Pak Affairs but he could also help me in essay & I would be able to get 80+ marks after getting his guidance. He asked me that he would charge me Rs 40,000 for 8 classes per month & Rs 60,000 for 12 classes per month. However, he agreed to teach me for Rs 35,000 for 8 classes in a month but he convinced me to study all subjects except Precis, EDS & CA from him. Hence, I started with Political Science, his core subject & studied with him for a month. My observations about him are as follows.
3. Being an octogenarian, he is quite old but still healthy & can deliver his lecture properly. His knowledge of Political Science, Philosophy, Public Ad & Pak Affairs is good but too expensive. Moreover, he told me in the start that he had some very good hand-written notes made out of multiple sources of life's research work but when I studied his notes they were poorly written by his students with innumerable grammatical mistakes & too medicre a content. I told him I didn't like his notes & would prefer making my own. Furthermore, in one month, he taught me only 11 western political thinkers & asked me to study the remaining ones by myself as they were too easy to be done by any student himself.
4. I also took couple of essay classes from him just to find out if he could be of any help to me. I discovered that he could only help you in making outlines of topics pertaining to his core subjects as mentioned above but nothing more. He couldn't guide you about essay writing or could also not prove helpful in its checking.
5. Hence, after studying one month from him, i left him as he was too expensive to be learnt from & there was also nothing much that couldn't be learnt from books.
6. Finally, I would like to share my score in English Essay & Precis in my 2018 attempt that I undertook without help of any teacher. In Essay, I scored 56 whereas in Precis, I scored 63. One more thing, I had barely 2 months with job to do all this. Hope you guys will learn your lessons from my experience.

Regards.
