Satabdi Mishra

Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) from Koustuv Institute of Self Domain in 2014 and Diploma (Msc.equivqlent ) in forestry from Central Academy of state Forest services,Dehradun in 2020

I teach students preparing for PSC and UPSC examinations, with a focus on competitive examination preparation, guidance, and structured coaching. I have around 10 years of teaching and administrative experience, and my professional journey has given me practical exposure to several areas that are relevant to competitive examination preparation.

I completed my B.Tech. in 2014 and began my professional career with HDFC Bank. I subsequently qualified for the Odisha Civil Services Examination in 2015 and also qualified for the Odisha Forest Services. These experiences became an important part of my professional and academic journey and strengthened my interest in competitive examinations.

As part of my professional training, I completed a two-year induction training programme at the Central Academy of State Forest Services, Dehradun, FRI Campus. I obtained a Post Graduate Diploma in Forestry, equivalent to an M.Sc. in Forestry. This academic and professional training has given me specialised knowledge as well as exposure to areas connected with environmental studies and governance.

Since 2020, I have been working with the Odisha Forest, Environment & Climate Change Department. I am currently posted in Bhubaneswar at Kharavela Bhawan as an Assistant Conservator of Forests. In my current role, I deal with areas such as pollution control, wetlands, NGT-related court matters, and climate change.

My professional responsibilities have given me practical exposure to several topics that are closely connected with current affairs and competitive examinations. I believe this real-world understanding can help students connect theoretical concepts with actual developments and understand subjects from a broader perspective.

I follow a structured and exam-oriented teaching methodology. My classes include lesson planning, conceptual explanations, current affairs, practice questions, revision, and assessment. I also encourage students to ask questions and discuss topics so that they develop conceptual clarity rather than relying only on memorisation.

My goal is to use my experience of competitive examinations, professional service, and academic training to guide students preparing for UPSC and PSC examinations. I want to help learners develop a systematic preparation strategy, strengthen their understanding of important subjects, stay connected with current affairs, and approach competitive examinations with greater confidence.
