    Hi,
    My name is Prerna Singh and I m working as a technical writer. I want to upgrade myself with this UX writing course but due to this course fee, I think I would not be able to take this course. As my salary is only 6lpa so I would not be able to submit the fees instantly. As a married working women there are some other expenses also which I have to take. So I please you people to give me some consideration or just half these fees in two months so that I can learn and pay simultaneously.

    I will be obliged if you consider my words.

    Thanks & Regards
    Prerna Singh
