Renuka Nair, a former banker is the founder of Panache IELTS. She was born and raised in Mumbai and did
her schooling
from Apostolic Carmel Convent, a school that believed in holistic education. Despite Malayalam being her
mother tongue,
English was her first language of education. The nuances of grammar were inculcated in her during her
formative years,
along with creative writing. It was while she was pursuing her Bachelor's degree that she decided to
hone her vocabulary.
Having completed her Masters in Mathematics and Computer Science, she started her career in Vadodara,
Gujarat in NIIT,
teaching C++ to Engineering students. This was followed by 15 years in the Banking Industry, during the
course of which
she obtained a PG diploma in Finance. Wanting to start out on her own, she quit banking in 2012 and
started training
professionals initially in Corporate Communications, followed by Spoken English and eventually IELTS,
TOEFL, GMAT, and
so on.
