Nikhil Kher PhD Mathematics student and lecturer

I can teach Mathematics to any level from grade 8-12, undergraduate and graduate students in Mathematics. I teach IIT JAM, IIT JEE Mathematics. I can teach any board from CBSE, ICSE, IB, AP State boards etc.. I also teach Science to grade 8-10

Teaching is a two way traffic and not a long monologue by the teacher. I believe in interacting and asking tons of questions to make students comfortable. I also understand that over strictness can be harmful but maintaining discpline is not. I will try to present activities and relate my topic from day to day activities to enhance their understanding and visualization. As a result they don't easily forget what's been taught. I know they have other things to study so I totally believe in smart learning rather than studying every book and doing every question. It's important to do the right amount of practice and develop logic so that they can attempt any new questions posed to them. What's the point of doing 100 questions without actually logically going through the arguments properly. It's our job to judge how much is required and beyond that for people interested in research I give them additional sources and questions and books to read. So o cater to any kind of audience, someone interested in the subject and someone completely disinterested.

Mathematical Wizard

My daughter changed her boards from CBSE to Cambridge in her 11th, and took Math along with business studies and computer science as her subject of studies.
This sudden change of boards, some degree of complacency aided by poor teaching at school, amounted to very poor results in her AS Levels (11th) and a loss of confidence.
The above prompted me to look for tutors, and I turned up to Mr. Nikhil Kher for help, guidance, counselling and a plan for the A level exams.
This by far was my best decision, as Mr. Nikhil through his patient and persistent teaching methods laid a solid foundation, clearing up concepts while instilling confidence.
All of the above is reflected in her performance at school - a total turn around.
I have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Nikhil Kher to anyone, who may be seeking to learn and understand Math.
I would sum up Mr. Nikhil in one word as - the "Mathematical Wizard"
