ACCA Strategic Business Leader (SBL)
Ashim Kumar FCCA – ACCA SBL Tutor Guru
I’m an FCCA with over 30 years of ACCA teaching experience, a former international business leader, and an ACCA-recognised SBL Tutor Guru.
See some of the videos I have delivered for ACCA on my YouTube channel here.
This combination of deep exam insight and real-world leadership is why my students don’t just pass SBL—they learn how to think and write like Strategic Business Leaders. Many have gone on to become prize-winners.
This course is only for candidates who have failed SBL at least once and don’t know why. It’s not about more notes or templates—it’s about fixing the judgement, commercial thinking, and exam execution the SBL examiner is actually testing.
You work with me every week on live calls, with 24/7 WhatsApp access to me and your peers. I am personally invested in your success, from our first session together to exam day.

This SBL Course Is Not for Everyone
My SBL online programme is designed only for committed ACCA candidates who are prepared to do the work required to pass. If you’re looking for shortcuts, model answers, or passive lectures, this is not the course for you.
I believe professional-level learning must be personal, demanding, and accountable. Every student arrives with different gaps, habits, and challenges—that’s why I work with you one-to-one, focusing on the specific issues that have held you back in SBL before. You’ll be expected to engage, reflect, practise, and improve—week after week.
Alongside our live sessions, you’ll join a private WhatsApp community with fellow serious candidates. You’ll have direct access to me, where I challenge your thinking, answer questions others can’t, and push you to raise your exam performance to Strategic Business Leader standard.
This course is for candidates who are ready to take responsibility, apply feedback, and commit fully to the process—because that’s what passing SBL demands.

Student Testimonials
SBL is a daunting paper; it requires knowledge of many earlier ACCA papers as well as containing huge amounts of data to analyse in four hours. Mr Kumar guided me through a system for dealing with all these challenges as well as teaching me the right exam technique. I enrolled on Mr Kumar’s on-line Revision course only 10 days before the first SBL sitting and I passed. I earned 82% ! Thank you Mr Kumar
I know I am late with posting my ACCA results, but it took me 2 days to get used with the idea that I have passed my first professional exam in the first attempt. Only 49% of students who sat Strategic Business Leader exam this September passed; therefore, I am proud to be one of those 49%.
I was prepared to fail knowing that I have tried my best in preparing for this exam. But all the hard work has paid off on 17th at 5 am when I got the results.
I could not have passed SBL in the first attempt without Ashim Kumar FCCA help, who guided me throughout the study programme. He has tailored his support to my needs, always fitting around my busy schedule, constantly checking my progress and mock results in zoom meetings, and full WhatsApp support for any questions. I would highly recommend FME Learn Online for ACCA students, especially for those who have exemptions for all Applied Skills exams.
Thank you for all the guidance and support. I am sure that I couldn’t have done this without you. You made the course enjoyable! I wanted to study and take part on the calls. Everything was structured, well explained and I loved the personalised feedback you provided us. At the day of the exam I wasn’t stressed at all because of how well you prepared us. I think you are the best tutor I have had in my life….
I passed SBL with 58% and finally cleared my ACCA exams. I’d like to give you a big credit for what you did to ensure we pass. The course materials were on point and most importantly up-to-date. Apart from the live webinars which proved really useful, the 24/7 support you offered during the course was superb really. I cannot thank you enough for what you did as I was almost hopeless until I met you. Thanks again!
Just wanted to drop you a note of appreciation and let you know that you’re an amazing teacher. You’re organized, responsive, patient and able to clearly explain complex topics and nuances. I really enjoyed every single minute of your tutorials and I’ve learned a lot! Not only that, your timely emails and constructive feedbacks have been extremely helpful.
Your feedback on assignments were always very detailed, you explained the rationale behind your comments very well and I appreciate it very much.
