Any good Mandarin (Chinese) language classes or private tutors in/near Baner?

Hey everyone,
I’m looking to start learning Mandarin Chinese (beginner level / HSK 1) and am searching for reliable institutes or private tutors in or around Baner.
I’ve seen a few places listed online (like The Oriental Dialogue near Pancard Club Rd or Adroit), but I’d love to get genuine feedback from anyone who has actually taken classes around here.
A few quick questions for anyone who has learned Mandarin in Pune:

1. Offline vs. Online: Are classroom sessions significantly better for tones/pronunciation, or are live online batches just as effective?
2. Institutes vs. Tutors: Any specific institutes in Baner/Aundh/Kothrud or individual tutors you’d recommend?
3. Pace & Weekend Batches: How flexible are the schedules for working professionals?
   If you’ve prepared for HSK exams or just learned conversational Mandarin locally, please drop your recommendations and reviews!
   Thanks in advance!
