I teach Physics to students ranging from Class 9 up to the postgraduate (MSc) level. Though I have been teaching professionally for the past one year, my passion for the subject and commitment to delivering clarity in complex topics has allowed me to connect meaningfully with students across academic levels. My focus lies in building a strong conceptual foundation while developing their analytical and problem-solving skills, which are essential in mastering Physics.

I hold an MSc in Physics, where I secured the 1st rank and was awarded a gold medal for academic excellence. Prior to that, I earned the 2nd rank in my BSc program, consistently performing well in academics. These achievements reflect not just my subject knowledge but also the discipline and curiosity that I bring into the classroom. I also had the opportunity to present research papers at both national and international conferences, which allowed me to stay updated and deepen my academic perspective.

During my short yet rewarding teaching journey, I’ve received heartfelt appreciation from students, including feedback letters that highlight the effectiveness of my teaching methods. Many of them mention how my ability to break down difficult concepts and present them with clarity helped them gain confidence in Physics—a subject many initially found intimidating. Their progress and success are what drive me to constantly refine my teaching style.

One of the highlights of my academic journey was earning 2nd rank in a Physics competition organized by Fitch. It was a rigorous and competitive environment that tested not only theoretical understanding but also practical application. Such experiences have shaped my belief that Physics should be taught not just from textbooks but also through engaging, real-life problem-solving.

I conduct both online and offline classes depending on the student's preference and location. My teaching style is interactive and application-based. I encourage active student participation through discussions, demonstrations, and numerical problem sessions. This helps students relate concepts to real-world phenomena, making learning more meaningful and impactful.

To enhance the learning experience, I use projector-based teaching with PowerPoint presentations. These tools help me explain abstract concepts visually and step-by-step, which is especially useful for higher-level topics. I also provide well-structured notes to students, tailored to their academic needs and exam preparation goals.

My aim as a Physics educator is not just to help students score well, but to inspire a genuine interest in the subject. I strive to make Physics approachable, logical, and engaging, so that students can see its beauty and relevance beyond the classroom.
