I am a teacher with 25 years of experience teaching in well known institutions across boards - IB and IGCSE. I hold a postgraduate degree in Commerce and Economics, along with a B.Ed. in the same subjects from Mumbai University. I specialise in teaching Math and Economics at the secondary level.Teaching is my passion because it enables me to equip my students with essential skills and knowledge. I integrate real-world examples into my lessons to make the subject more engaging and relevant for students. By using diagrams and assigning videos, I create opportunities for meaningful class discussions. Additionally, I adapt my lessons to address the unique needs of each student.
