A NASSCOM 1000 Startup incubated company
The name comes from the maatraa in Indian languages - a dependent vowel that works with other sounds to shape meaning. A building block on its own, it can create entire words and whole new meanings when combined.
Maatraa, as a brand, is based on this idea. It highlights the role of small but essential elements in confident English communication. The courses are designed to strengthen the development of communication skills.
Developing strong English communication in a way that is accessible and affordable can be challenging. Maatraa makes this learning simple, flexible, and within reach. The programmes fit easily into daily routines, with online and offline options and guidance as needed.
Maatraa provides a well-structured approach to practical learning. The focus is on clarity, confidence, and everyday English communication.
The content is created exclusively for Maatraa by language experts and grammarians, and is meant for students, educators, and professionals.
An innate interest in language and the learning process has been the golden thread in her life and work.
After quitting a full-time career in advertising, she spent two enriching decades as a full-time mother to two. During this time, she helped her children and many others master the art of learning while staying actively engaged with evolving technology. She enjoys creating photographic gifts and keepsakes, as well as conceptualising and designing professional digital photobooks.
At Love & Faith Designs, she returned to her advertising roots as a consultant in client servicing and brand strategy.
Mentoring aspiring first-generation college students in the College to Career programme at iTeach Schools was a meaningful experience. When her mentees secured admission to private Indian universities with full financial aid in 2025, it reinforced her belief in the value of clear articulation nurtured by consistent guidance.
From Maatraa’s inception in 2017, her work has involved curating the content and shaping the training methodology for effective English communication. At the intersection of language and technology, Maatraa is her ode to effective expression.
Here are our well-wishers who have unstintingly given their time and energy to build Maatraa. We are fortunate to have so many smart, talented people rooting for us!
