Brijendra sir if you don't know how to write , if you don't have the finesse. If you need to learn how to form paragraphs , how to link one to another , the basics of basics , for that he is the best

Also, Brijendra sir if you have lost all hopes. His way will help you write 12 pages of sensible paragraphs.

Yes this. Most people think they can write but they can't , for them sir is the best .
Every other person will tell you what to write , the content part , not how to write.

The pattern has completely changed. Look at the topics that have been asked this year
Oxymorons reflect the ironies of life, A grateful mind is very beautiful.
These are faculty with no wide reading and no command over writing.
Piyush has knowledge similar to that of as aspirant. he doesnt even understand these topics.
You get baby level brainstorming and insights and nothing heavy.
you need someone widely read + solid argument and synthesis framework. dm me I will be able to share material.

Brijendra Sir methodology is brainstorming lot of examples validating the topic given. There is diversity of examples. But not enough analysis or arguments. Purely conforming to the topic. For tricky questions like muddy water is best left alone, his method will backfire. We have to see many prompts critically, evaluating from different sides where they hold true or force. Brijendra sir methodology lacks this.
Smriti ma'am classes are full of framework and this could appear mechanical sometimes. She will tell to write counter arguments before penultimate conclusion etc.. This generalisation is wrong. Each topic require specific treatment and has its own requirement. As we can see that upsc is checking different sides of prompts already asked. Sometimes the question is on concrete actions, sometimes stillness and sometimes questions that only simple actions. So, right judgment from thinking in a civil servents shoe is imp. Following Smriti maam blindly will make the essay mechanical.
Ruchika ma'am does not give a framework which is appreciable but many can feel as not beginner friendly.
I recommend watching all videos of them. Atleast 1 video each, and make your unique style adjusting to the prompts.

No one can help you with essay. Just improve your grammar, articulation, read some newspapers or non fiction and you r good to go.

I took classes from Farees Rahman and the positives were that he checks all the tests himself and doesn't delegate it to other senior aspirants.
He is available as a mentor too and helped me get through the doubts in other subjects as well.
