I did my schooling from Navodaya Vidyalaya. Throughout my schooldays, I was fortunate to get some excellent teachers of maths and science who encouraged me to seek knowledge and expand my thinking capabilities rather than chasing after grades and ranks. It is from there I imbibed the attitude of learning by understanding and trying to do things on my own rather than depending on someone spoon feeding the digested gists. This process has helped me to be an independent and a more confident student. After being exposed to more people from other places, I understood that this ability is scarce to find at the least and I saw people leaving physics and maths just because they did not get proper basic training in these subjects. I want to make a change there and build students who are confident of their knowledge and abilities. I also want to give them a taste of the joy that I feel while understanding things that these truly beautiful subjects offer. I seek great pleasure in understanding and teaching the intricate details of what goes on behind the compact equations, giving deeper understanding of concepts. I have an excellent grip on the school level mathematics and physics. I enjoy guiding a new learner through each step of the way so that they will have utmost clarity and will be able to use the gained knowledge themselves and solve the problems they encounter in their future academic endeavours confidently. I avoid superficial arguments to make the student accept the facts given in the textbooks as they are and push the student to develop rational and scientific attitude.
