I am still a student as i love to learn and explore. I have been teaching many students on one to one basis in person since last 3 years. I know where students face issues in solving problems and how I can make a topic more easier and understandable through daily life example.
I am pursuing masters degree in organic chemistry from ccs University. Being a student myself i know where students need most of the help and how complicated topics can be solved in the most simplest ways with a creative approach.
I had theatre arts as an extra curricular activity in college and this brought my creativity level into my academics and daily issues. Therefore I love doing things in a very different and creative manner.
Talking about science, imagination plays a very important role in understanding any topic. I always try to make students imagine the concept in all possible dimensions and enable them to solve the rest on their own.
