I completed my M.Sc (Physics) from IIT Kharagpur in 2021. I am currently pursuing Ph.D. in astrophysics at IUCAA Pune. I love teaching physics. I have learned more by tutoring my peers than by studying by myself. Through my experience, I have learned that many people consider physics problematic because they do not have a strong base for understanding complex concepts. But with the proper guidance, physics can be anyone's favorite subject.

I am an ethical tutor. I will not help you cheat on exams or give ready answers to assignments. I believe in helping the students grasp concepts so they can solve exams on their own.

I prefer students who are interested in a long-term tutor-tutee relationship. However, feel free to contact me if you are generally good at physics but need help with a particular thing you cant wrap your head around. It brings me immense satisfaction to see a student who doesn't like physics start enjoying it and finally excels at it. Such transformations need a patient teacher and student-teacher interaction over an extended period. I can assess the student's abilities and weaknesses during this time and mold my approach accordingly. For example, It takes some time to diagnose that a student doesn't understand Special Relativity well because they are weak at co-ordinates transformations.

My teaching methodology is very structured. To learn any concept well, one must know other preliminary concepts essential for complete comprehension. I call them ingredients of a concept. I always begin by collecting such ingredients of a concept. Make sure they are well understood, and then slowly build the concept. I use a lot of real-life examples and analogies and encourage my students to ask questions.

Besides physics, I enjoy various activities like origami, swimming, reading, baking, and knitting.
