Delhi-based startup PerfectMyEnglish Services Pvt Ltd, which has developed a web platform to help users improve their English language skills and also launched a free android app for learning English a few months ago, will soon come up with PerfectMyEnglish – Voice, a VoIP-based spoken English course that can be accessed via mobile phones. Since VoIP services ensure seamless voice-based communications between a teacher and a student, pronunciation training gets customised and hassle-free
The new service will hit the market by July this year and one has to pay Rs 1,400-Rs 1,800 per month for the training.

However, for the spoken English lessons, a user won’t require internet access, which means one can use even a basic feature phone for the course. The upcoming ‘voice’ service can also be leveraged by users when something important is lined up (say, an interview or a competitive exam). But one needs to pay extra for that ‘additional’ coaching.
As for target market, the startup is eyeing people who want to learn intermediate or advanced English, especially the professionals who are keen to learn advanced English for interviews and business communication.
PerfectMyEnglish was founded by the foursome – Sahil Sethi, Rohit Taneja, Shikhar Sethi and Abhimanyu Jhajharia. The concept was pitched during a StartupWeekend in Delhi – those 54-hour events where people can meet, form teams and launch startups. While Sahil holds a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Royal Holloway, University of London, Taneja is an IIT Delhi graduate in Electrical Engineering. Shikhar and Jhajharia hold degrees in Computer Science from the Birla Institute of Technology & Science (Dubai campus).
