I have been tutoring physics for the last 3 yrs to students in 11 and 10 standard.and also I am expert in physics in a freelancing site.I started tutoring when I was pursuing a degree from Mahatmagandhi University.
I have not planned to pursue my career in teaching; it just started as an additional income during college days. And after getting a degree and pass masters degree, the sincere desire of teaching started as a side income to the hobby is now a full-time profession.
I love teaching when students are curious, and my classes are interactive, where I give complete freedom for students to ask questions and then further delve into more profound theories and co-relate with practical and day-to-day scenarios. I work with students of all types from students whose concepts are weaker to extremely bright students.
If you are interested in tutoring, feel free to connect with me. I hope to work with you soon!!
