Well about my education I have completed my Secondary and Senior Secondary in the year 2017 and 2019 respectively both from Srirampur Agricultural High School. Now I am doing B.Sc. Honours in Mathematics from Tamralipta Mahavidyalaya under Vidyasagar University. Also I have a computer course from Youth Computer Training Centre and a spoken English course from Blue Angels. I have been teaching for more than 1 year as a private tutor. My students have done very well in the result Secondary Examination. I took coaching various Competitive Exams and crack maximum of them. I've solved many author's exercise and example like as Walter Rudin, S.K. Mapa, H.L.Royden, I.N. Herstein. I am newly passed student, that's why I'm more aware about new topics than the others. I can solve math problems in a very simple way and understandable method. Many times I attach the special note the 'Knowledge Clip' as being compatible with the math problem. I know various short trick of many math problems that can be solved in a very short time. If you let me solve any math problem, I get 100% accurate results.
