Online tuition for NRI families
If your child is on the Indian syllabus abroad — or you are heading back to India and want them ready — this is what Erevna does for families outside India.
Short answer
Erevna Learning Center teaches NRI students online in the CBSE, ICSE and Cambridge IGCSE syllabi, from grades 1 to 12. Classes are live, taught by Indian-syllabus specialists in Secunderabad, and scheduled in the student’s local evening. Families in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, the UK, the USA and Australia are currently served.
The three situations we usually see
- Child at an Indian-curriculum school abroad
- Common across the Gulf, where CBSE and ICSE schools are everywhere. The gap is usually subject depth in Maths and Science, and exam-pattern practice. Erevna teaches exactly that syllabus daily.
- Child at a local or international school, keeping the Indian syllabus alive
- Typical in the USA, UK and Australia. Parents want the child able to slot back into an Indian board later, or simply want stronger Maths and Science than the local school provides.
- Family returning to India
- The hardest transition. We map the difference between what the child has covered and what the target Indian board expects, then close the gap before the move.
Time zones: when classes actually happen
This is the practical question every NRI parent asks first. Erevna is in India (IST, UTC+5:30). Here is how a given IST slot lands in each country.
| Class slot (IST) | UAE | Saudi Arabia | USA | UK | Australia |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6:30 am IST | 5:00 am | 4:00 am | 8:00 pm (previous day) | 1:00 am | 11:00 am |
| 7:30 am IST | 6:00 am | 5:00 am | 9:00 pm (previous day) | 2:00 am | 12:00 pm |
| 4:00 pm IST | 2:30 pm | 1:30 pm | 5:30 am | 10:30 am | 8:30 pm |
| 5:30 pm IST | 4:00 pm | 3:00 pm | 7:00 am | 12:00 pm | 10:00 pm |
| 7:00 pm IST | 5:30 pm | 4:30 pm | 8:30 am | 1:30 pm | 11:30 pm |
| 8:30 pm IST | 7:00 pm | 6:00 pm | 10:00 am | 3:00 pm | 1:00 am (next day) |
What this means in practice
- UAE (GST (UTC+4)). The UAE has the largest concentration of Indian-curriculum schools outside India, so CBSE, ICSE and IGCSE support all apply. See slots and boards for UAE.
- Saudi Arabia (AST (UTC+3)). International Indian schools in Riyadh, Jeddah and the Eastern Province largely follow CBSE, which is Erevna’s most-taught board. See slots and boards for Saudi Arabia.
- USA (ET (UTC-5)). Most US families either keep a child on the Indian syllabus for a planned return, or add Maths and Science support alongside US school. See slots and boards for USA.
- UK (GMT (UTC+0)). IGCSE overlaps closely with the UK GCSE syllabus in Maths and Science, so the same tutoring serves both. See slots and boards for UK.
- Australia (AEST (UTC+10)). Australia runs ahead of India, so morning IST slots land conveniently in the Australian evening. See slots and boards for Australia.
Middle East coverage
Beyond the country pages above, Erevna teaches students across United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain. Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain sit within half an hour of UAE and Saudi time, so the UAE and Saudi Arabia timetables apply almost unchanged.

Frequently asked questions
Can NRI students take online tuition from Erevna Learning Center?
Yes. Erevna teaches NRI students online in CBSE, ICSE and Cambridge IGCSE for grades 1 to 12, currently including families in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, the UK, the USA and Australia.
How do class timings work across time zones?
Erevna is on IST (UTC+5:30). Slots are picked so the class falls in the student’s local evening or weekend. For example, a 7:00 pm IST class is 5:30 pm in the UAE, 1:30 pm in the UK and 8:30 am on the US East Coast; an early 7:30 am IST class is 12:00 pm in Sydney.
Which boards do you teach for students abroad?
CBSE, ICSE/ISC and Cambridge IGCSE. Telangana SSC is taught too but is rarely relevant outside India.
My child is returning to India next year. Can you prepare them?
Yes, and this is one of the most useful things Erevna does. We compare what your child has already covered against the Indian board they are joining, identify the gaps, and teach to close them before the move.
How do we pay from outside India?
Discuss this when you enquire on WhatsApp or email — the centre will confirm the currently supported payment methods for overseas families.
Is there a trial class for overseas students?
Yes. A trial class is arranged at a slot that works in your time zone before you commit.
