Hello!
I am Apoorva Verma. I am a Biology tutor and I have been in tutoring field from past 2 and a half year now. I love Biology and sharing my knowledge with the students as well. I have BSc Degree in Chemistry Hons and Msc Degree in Biochemistry. I am proficient in using Mathtype and Excel, and I also have good Command over English language. As I have mentioned that I have tutoring experience, so let me tell you my way of answering the question. If I come across a question, then I start the answer by giving a general introduction related to the question. My next move would be of explaining the question thoroughly that student must not leave with any doubt. At last, I conclude the answer in 3-4 lines, to give the short answer to the question.
My main motive is always to provide high quality, conceptually correct, and self explanatory answers to the students. I try not to leave any room for mistakes in my answers and I do this by checking the facts from all the given sources on internet. I do not rely just on one source for my answer and try to grab information from the best portals. I hope my answers in future help you in solving your queries and I meet your expectations.
Thank you.
