• 1) When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring?

  Teaching has been my passion since my childhood. I grew up helping my siblings in guiding her subjects. I have gained my teaching skills from my school teacher who is involved in private tutoring for more than 25 years. With her experience, I realized that persistent learning, good communication skills and updating oneself with the latest knowledge is the key to being a good tutor. As I have always thrived to seek knowledge in various subjects, I aspired to become a private tutor.

• 2)Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).

  I have been involved in private tutoring for more than 8 years. In this duration, I have taught many subjects at school and graduate level subjects. Civil Engineering being my field of study, I completed my Masters (M.Tech.) in the field of Structural Engineering and so working and teaching software/subjects regarding this subject highly interest me.I always enjoy teaching all civil engineering subjects. I always use my creative and practical knowledge skills to make sure that students understand the most complex topics in the easiest possible way. The overwhelmingly positive feedback from my past and current students always inspires me to work harder and give my best to the subjects I teach.

• 3) Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?

  I have had several role models since my childhood, most of them being my school or university teachers/Professors. I learned to work smartly from my UPSC teacher who never failed to fascinate me with a new trick to solve problems in a quick and efficient way. Since then, I developed a practice to think first and then act on the problem. The professor from my graduate course taught me how hard work and perseverance can take you much ahead in your life. My supervisors are/have been my role model as I learned several skills such as how to deliver knowledge, time-management, soft skills, communication skills and maintaining relations.

• 4) What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?

  According to me, a good tutor is one who is very well prepared for the subject and one who can deliver exactly what is required in a manner that students can grasp easily. I have developed a practice of working several hours for the subject before I teach them. This helps me to work on the various ways in which I can teach the topics. Another important aspect according to me is the ability of a teacher to teach with practical examples and make it relate to real world problems. A student can learn a topic easily if he/she is able to visualize what he/she learns and hence it is essential to relate with the real world problems. Lastly, a healthy relationship between a student and teacher is something that makes learning fun and interesting hence I believe a good tutor should possess good communication and psychological skills so that he can relate the problem and solve it in a way that a student can understand.

• 5) Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.

  I remember a very important anecdote from my school days that changed my life in ways that I never thought could be, I had been doing extremely well in the maths and science related subjects since my childhood. It was once in my grade 9 that I received a very low score in mathematics subjects. The problem wasn't about me not knowing the subject but rather was being over-confident about it. I made mistakes in trivial calculations and steps. This is when I learned the importance of precision and working calmly and attentively with the questions/subjects. Since then I have been doing great with various subjects and this small incident helped me to shape my way of learning.

• 6) What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or are still facing in your subject?

  For a long time, I haven't been teaching any new subjects but in the initial stages it's always a bit challenging as I am not always completely aware of all the topics of the subject. However, with experience and technical support it's easy now to review or learn a topic that has been newly introduced or I haven't studied. As I have teaching experience in my home country, the course structure in INDIA/other countries varies depending on the university and hence it sometimes becomes challenging to clearly define the scope to which the detail of the topic should be restricted. But as my education is from the best university of engineering in the world & I learnt from the best professors so my conceptual knowledge is much better and that helps me to understand the critical analysis of the problem and that motivates me to go at any level of particular topic with the students so that they can understand.

• 7) Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?

  I possess a keen interest in learning software and their applications. I possess detailed theoretical knowledge on most of the subjects I teach. However, each day new software is introduced based on the application and I really love learning as much as I can. Teaching is my passion and not an element of my subject. I believe in sharing knowledge as it helps me learn a lot of new content as well. As I believe white teaching any subject, you understand that concept in a better way as you learn yourself. It helps me look into various aspects of the subject and I find myself learning more about it each day.

• 8) What makes you a Superprof (besides answering these interview questions :-P)?

  A Superprof isn't a one who possesses the best knowledge on the subject. I believe I may not be knowing entirely about the subject and there might be tutors that are more knowledgeable than me, but I do know how to make a subject understandable and How to deliver the best knowledge to a student in a way that works best for the student in the simplest way and This attribute I believe makes me a Superprof and I am stating this based on the recommendations and reviews from my past students to whom I have guided and are doing well in their studies.
