I have taken a CFA level 1 class with FPA. Mr.Jeetender Peswani sir teaches basic first and then focuses on the primary topic. Being a non-finance background student, I understand everything that he explains. It is helping me alot. Also, he discusses many examples from the market, which helps me to enhance my general knowledge.
