Do ALL four of these apply to you?

I am 18 or older.
I will show a government photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, passport or driving licence) on a video call before any offer. Cresta looks at it on camera and never keeps a copy.
I have a laptop, a webcam, a headset, a quiet room with a plain background, and backup internet (for example a phone hotspot).
I will teach only on Cresta's platform, never contact students or parents privately, and leave all prices and bookings to Cresta.
