About Me
I always loved Science (particularly Biology) and - besides the obvious reference to Rosalind Franklin, Charles Darwin and Alfred Wallace - I was greatly influenced by Desmond Morris, David Attenborough, Stephen Jay Gould, Richard Dawkins and Paul Ekman. Their ability to question and to endure on a quest for the truth has always amazed me.I am a Biologist with a Master's degree in the field of Education (focusing on Biology). I have been working in the field of Education and Adult Training since 2000. I believe that I am becoming a facilitator (rather than the chief protagonist) of my students’ education and learning experience. It is not just about what they know, but rather how they know it, and what they are planning to do with that data. I want to encourage students to become inquisitive problem-solvers and innovators. I also believe that teaching can also develop resilience, compassion and empathy, which are key-skills in our complex world. Recently, I started to develop a profound interest about mindfulness. As a mindfulness practitioner I feel and understand its benefits. So, I am inspired to take my knowledge and use my practice to benefit many.

The student's strong personality is the secret to his success in life. Live strong, die a thousand deaths, and do not weaken even once.First, the feelings that afflict the student during adolescence almost chill his chest with fear or hinder him from his goal. Let us reveal this secret. Second, what we advise the student to follow are the famous sayings in the dictionaries of philosophy and what psychology has said, as someone said, “The window that the winds enter, close it and rest.” The meaning here is not hidden in the window itself, but in the symbolic expression. For example, things bother him, and he will avoid their sources, such as another student who prevents him from studying with his moodiness, so he should stay away from him, or like his sleeping classmate, so he should not imitate him, or walk in the street with a bad friend who almost gets run over by a car because he does not look to his right or left more clearly. It is necessary for the adolescent to avoid everything that harms him, as he is in the stage of vitality and reward to elevate himself. Third, confrontation is not solved by time, but the student has a matter that makes him dispense with that as long as he is an adult with a mind, such as repeating the saying “I cannot do more than” to your parents, so you admit not to confront and surrender to what is in front of you. Good or bad?
Fourth, do not exaggerate matters, as they are all transient, whether small or big. Rather, live in the present with a smile. Fifth, you will get what you like if you attract it with your magnetism. Choose what you will attract to yourself.

Economic, Business and Psychology For GSCE Students and AbovePsychology, economics, and business are the invisible forces shaping every aspect of our daily lives, influencing how we think, decide, and connect with the world. Psychology unlocks the secrets of human behavior, driving smarter marketing, persuasive branding, and innovative product design. Economics empowers us with financial wisdom, guiding everything from personal budgeting to global trade dynamics. Meanwhile, business fuels creativity and efficiency, turning ideas into thriving enterprises that shape industries and economies. When these disciplines converge, they equip us with the knowledge to make strategic decisions, enhance well-being, and build stronger, more resilient communities—ultimately enriching both our personal and professional lives.
This will help shape your mind for a healthier living. Ensuring self reliance and mental efficiency for ease in business, relationships and daily life.

When Interaction Meets Education, providing a conducive and supportive environment to each child who joinsPsychology has become a sought-after course in recent years, with more and more children enrolling in it either in school or when they go to university. However, a lot of educational institutions focus solely on the theoretical perspective of psychology and techniques associated with therapy, with little to no impact on the real world being assessed. As a practitioner and student in the field, I like to combine theory and practicality when I teach. This helps the child learn the concept better with an actual experience. I feel that experience-based learning makes concept learning and understanding more effective. I will also help in framing answers for the exam-based questions and will also look into taking practice papers for the same.
When it comes to languages, both English and Hindi have been a pivotal part of my schooling, and Hindi is spoken at home to this day. I believe that grammar and spoken English are at the top of the pedestal, and it is with confidence building that we can work on understanding English as a language. Hindi too as a language will require greater grammatical understanding so as to make the writing part of it more effective. As your tutor, I will tap onto all aspects, writing, speaking, and grammar, so that we leave no stone unturned and help you progress in this avenue better.
