I am the Cambridge A-Levels Psychology Teacher at Modern College, Mauritius and the Subject Expert for Cambridge AS and A-Levels Psychology at Podar International School, Mumbai.

I tutor AQA psychology students at Higher OTS Academy, UAE and Edexcel Psychology students at Etutor Home.

I tutor GCSE, IGCSE, GCE and IAL students in the AQA and Edexcel Curriculum - that is, Oxford International AQA Psychology students and UK AQA Psychology students; and International Edexcel Psychology students and UK Edexcel Psychology students.

Having my online lessons referenced in the Cambridge teachers' AS and A levels teachers' manual for guiding students, I have established my reputation as a tutor based solely on merit. I hold the distinction of being a UGC SET and NET first attempt ranker in psychology.

In my more than 9 years of experience of tutoring, I have helped students obtain A*s in their A-Levels and 7s in their IBDP Psychology IAs and EAs. I have tutored and provided consultation for assignments to students from UK, UAE, Canada, Malaysia, Australia, Dubai, Romania, New Zealand, South Africa, Singapore, Mauritius, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and all over India.

I have created my global presence online with my website, video channel; and my blog which has repeatedly received mention as a resource for teachers in the Cambridge A-Levels curriculum; and an offer from professor Saul McLeod for purchase and integration into his prestigious international psychology website. My sample notes and answers are used and videos are viewed by thousands of students and teachers internationally.

My Teaching Style involves-

● Exam-oriented Preparation
From the very first class, I get students to prepare their essays and other answers topically. First we discuss the answer, then the student writes, receiving my continuous feedback -comments and corrections - in the process. In this way, I ensure that the student does not rote learn answers but rather, learns how to write them. The student gets to prepare their answers, automatically memorising them while writing and also save them for future reference.

● Past Paper Practice
I integrate past paper practice in the answer-writing that I do from the first class itself. As and when new past papers are released, I share them with students and we practice them for exam preparation.

● Use of Digital Blackboard
Whilst explaining concepts, I make sure to make presentations on the screen so that the student can learn audio-visually.

● Step-by-step Solving of Statistical Sums
For all courses requiring solution of descriptive and inferential statistics and plotting of graphs, I demonstrate solutions step-by-step, explaining the logic behind each step and showcasing manual steps/use of calculator as required.

● Guidance for software-based assignments-
I guide students with their projectwork on SPSS, R, MS Excel, Opensesame, etc. as required by the course.

● Regularity and Punctuality of Classes
I make sure to help students complete all their class-test preparation and to complete their assignments much before due dates so that they never lag behind the pace of their class.

● Involvement with Parents
I stay in touch with students only in WhatsApp groups in which I include their parents as well.

● Flexibility in Teaching
As and when required I have tutored my students for their other subjects and projects including IB PYP personal project, BA and MA Economics, Sociology, Philosophy, History, Political Science and English and more.

My other experience includes-

● International Research Work-

Research work and paper presentation on international platforms such as the Mumbai University International conference, SIMSREE international management conference, the prestigious Bombay Psychological Society annual conference and many others - winning the best paper and best presentation awards.

● Extracurricular Activities for Professorship-

Active participation in workshops and seminars, guiding students on psychology careers and in providing therapy, receiving the highest annual ratings amongst professors for teaching and mentorship from my dear undergraduate students.
