Devansh P.
Hey there!
My name is Devansh, and I’m a CIMA Accredited Tuition Provider. For your Operational Case Study Exam Course my job is to provide a framework that will help you build confidence towards writing this exam in a very easy and flexible way. I will be leading discussions in live class and making sure students are engaged and feel challenged throughout all my lectures. I will show you how to flexibly manage your time while studying, provide a study framework to build confidence and most importantly, help you ace this exam!
See what some of our students have to say about us

Sonal Lasrado
Finntutors was an incredible place to start my CIMA journey, their services and attention towards my progress made it easy to advance towards the goals I'd set for myself. Rest assured the tools they provide coupled with your hard work is a recipe for success. It was due to their personalised assistance and support throughout that I managed to clear my OCS in the first attempt!

Teddy Odibo
Thanks to Dev and the team, I was able to pass my OCS first time in only 3 weeks. finntutors is different from other providers due to their very personalised services. I even got a message to check my results :)

Divya Verma
Well, it seems unreal I managed to clear my OCS finally, Yay. All thanks to Dev and Team. Team was so invested in my learning process that it compelled me to do those extra hours and work for the assignments. They helped me understand my weak areas and motivated to do better with one on one feedback. Dev made it a smooth sail which seemed impossible to me. I am now planning to move my journey ahead with the team and I would highly recommend Finntutors Academy . If I can do it, you can do it too . Lets keep moving ahead.

Sankalp Nautiyal
I didn't score well in my last attempts of OCS but Finntutors have helped me to overshadow all those failures. Dev always support students personally and mentor them on their weakness. I strongly recommend Finntutors as they know what adds value for their students in exam preparation.

Keiran Day
I went to Finntutors following struggling to learn for my case study. I had exemptions for my 3 objective tests and was struggling condense the workload down. Dev provided me with the focused content which allowed me to study for the case study in a shorter time period. This along with the personal support with exam technique enabled me to comfortably pass the operational case study

Audrey Anne Archery
A huge thank you to Dev for the outstanding support and tutoring on my operational case study. I most definitely learnt alot from his personalized feedback which helped to refine my approach to this exam. best value for your buck. Will definitely be back for MCS.

Aneta Koleva
I enrolled with Finntutors for my CIMA OCS following the many positive feedbacks I read about them and I do not regret it! I passed my OCS from first attempt in February 2021! I can’t recommend Dev and the team strong enough! When you have to sit your first case study, you do not need that much of new knowledge - it goes by itself that you already had studied hard to master the three operational level subjects. Rather, what one now needs is guidance, structure, new skills, boost of confidence at times. With a mind at peace that I am in expert hands I was able to focus on the proposed structure and work to build from there – question understanding, answer planning, and the specific CIMA writing skills. We wrote mock questions and timed mock exams – each checked and marked. I also got individual attention and one-to-one time with the lead tutor Dev. I could approach him with any question any time, directly. And he is always there with a competent answer and support. With Finntutors you not only get a tutor, but a friend and a true supporter who wants that you achieve your goal as much as you, if not more! Thank you!

Arpita Jhawar
I studied for my OCS exam for feb 2021 and passed with 109. Their planning and execution towards the paper is excellent. Dev (my tutor) is very supportive and approachable. Their time based mocks helped me to manage time and write relevant answers. I am completely satisfied with the materials and teaching provided. I will definitely be studying rest of the case study exams with them! Thankyou Dev and team😊

Leica Bryden
I can not thank Finntutors enough for helping me pass the CIMA operational case study. I was starting again after a 4 year break in my studies. With the help of Finntutors I was able to catch up on the syllabus changes and get exam ready in just 6 short weeks and pass the exam. I will definitely be using Finntutors as my studying tool going forward. Thank you so much Dev and the team.

Mathole Malatji
Finntutors offers a great revision course for case study exams, especially if you've been exempted off of OTs. Their mocks exams will equip you well enough for the case study exam. I passed my OCS with 92 :) Highly recommended for case study preparation!!!!! :

Kristina Moritiwon
Dev and the team provided me with excellent guidance and a strong support system when approaching my OCS exam. Very well structured and planned revision materials and mocks which enabled me to pass my exam. I would definitely recommend to try Finntutors.

Melissa Bintley
I studied with Finntutors for my OCS exam in Feb 21. I signed up to the course with 5 weeks prior to the exam, with 2 exemptions. Thanks to the high quality material & teaching by Dev & his team, I passed my OCS first time. I could not recommend FinnTutors any more & I am happy I found their services so early on in my CIMA qualification. I will be certainly be studying with Finntutors for the remainder of my case study exams! Thank you Dev & team for everything! It wouldn’t have been possible without you!
