About
My personal mission is to make a positive impact on the lives of others. As a CPA coach, I achieve that goal every day. As a CPA Coach, my mission is to help students prepare for and pass the Uniform CPA Exam. My approach is customized to address the needs of each student, including those who receive accommodations during the test. I have developed tools and approaches to tutoring that have enabled students who have previously failed the test to pass, often with strong results. I am currently developing eBooks and a digital platform to reach a broader audience. Nothing is more satisfying to me than helping an accounting professional achieve his or her goal of passing the grueling Uniform CPA exam. As a professional & experienced auditor, I have led audit and testing projects for prominent accounting firms, including PwC, LLP, RSM US, LLP, & Plante & Moran, LLC. In these roles, I developed a broad, practical understanding of accounting principles and how to explain them. In other professional roles, I have worked as an accounting manager in a family owned business working predominantly with QuickBooks. Finally, I obtained an MBA from DePaul University with concentrations in Accounting and Strategy, Execution, and Valuation (SEV).

Vishal has helped me with passing the FAR exam and I highly recommend him to CPA candidate who may be struggling with any part of the exam. I found Vishal during my review process where I was overwhelmed with how to approach the final review as there is a vast amount of material covered in FAR. Vishal was able to provide me with a study plan that really focused on the heavily tested areas. He ensured that I had a good foundation in those areas in order to be successful through our sessions. The way he approached his sessions was by reviewing his extremely detailed notes. You can tell he spent A LOT of time curating these notes so that they are easily digestible to anyone who is studying for the exam and really puts focus on how to tackle the tricky questions. During our sessions we would go over any questions I had over the McQ's and he provided really easy tips and tricks on how to approach each questions which reduced the amount of time I spent on them moving forward. Before Vishal, I had not passed a CPA exam on my first attempt, so I was very surprised to learn that I passed FAR on the very first try. I credit this to his notes and his method of teaching during our sessions as well as advice he gave over the sections I should focus on. If anyone is hesitant on tutoring, know that this is a worth while investment you will not regret and I highly recommend using Vishal

Working with Vishal was one of the best decisions Ive ever made and it changed my way of thinking. With Vishals guidance and aid on this exam, I was able to pass my very first exam. I am forever grateful because Vishal was able to really get me in check. He would prepare a customized study plan based around my busy life. Vishal always checked on me to see how I was doing and I really appreciated that. A lot of these CPA review courses just want your money and do not care about you. Vishal is not like this. I would recommend Vishals services to anyone who is on the fence of hiring a CPA tutor. Please look no further and dont waste your time anymore of having to constantly retake this tough exam over and over again. Its a very expensive process, so just do it right the first time. I am so excited to finish my remaining 3 CPA sections with Vishal because I am motivated as ever now. Thank you Vishal I couldnt do this without having you in my corner!

I heard of Vishal through a recommendation in an online CPA study group. This was not my first round with a CPA exam. I had already successfully passed REG and AUD on my own, but FAR was giving me a run for my money. I tried many methods before working with Vishal. In total, I took the FAR exam 5 times over the course of a year while passing REG and AUD. My scores were 68, 66, 69, 72, and 72. I was struggling with where to go and what to work on next. When I reached out to Vishal, I'm sure he thought I was crazy. I was set to test in one week, and I was planning on working full time while also studying for another retake. The moment he showed me his teaching method I was hooked, it just made so much sense. I felt the Becker program wasn't working for me, nor was supplementing with NINJA. Vishal provided me with a study schedule and tailored it to what he thought I should and shouldn't focus on. This gave me a clear path forward. Vishal and I only worked 6 hours together. I want to repeat that, only 6 hours and we covered as many topics as we could in that time. He made things click for me that I had struggled with for so long! His study guides are a game-changer and written in a way that just makes sense and explains the concepts to you. It is because of his help and his encouragement that I am now able to say that I have passed FAR on my SIXTH ATTEMPT. He was the game changer I needed. I loved working with him so much, I am going to use him for my final section BEC, because I know he will be able to prepare me for success with finishing off my CPA journey. If you are considering using Vishal, please reach out and speak with him, I know you will not regret it!

I was introduced to Vishal through my coworker who passed all 4 parts of the CPA within a year. As for myself, I was working with Vishal while preparing for the FAR exam in September 2020. He was always supportive by answering all my questions as some FAR topics was hard for me to understand. For the CPA exam I am using Becker. Although Becker platform is excellent, I needed to have a tutor who can answer/clarify for me some of the FAR concepts. Vishal is a brilliant mentor and tutor. His teaching style is very simple and straightforward. Vishal's notes are written clear and it feels like you are having a dialog with him. We met twice a week over zoom for 1-2 hours and practiced Becker questions. He taught me how to be efficient with my time, understand questions and how to solve them in the best way. The CPA is very difficult exam and requires self-discipline. However, using a tutor will give you confidence, clarity and the level of support that you need to pass.
