As a passionate physics teacher with 15 years of teaching experience in the IGCSE and IBDP curricula, I have had the privilege of sharing my knowledge and love for physics with students from diverse backgrounds. Over the past three years, I have focused on online teaching, specifically delivering IBDP physics lessons. During this time, I have been fortunate to be a part of prestigious institutions such as Lanterna and Elite IB, where I have contributed as a valued member of the teaching faculty.

One of the highlights of my teaching journey has been conducting numerous revision workshops for students from various schools across Europe. These workshops have provided me with the opportunity to engage with students in a collaborative and interactive learning environment, helping them deepen their understanding of physics concepts and enhance their exam preparation.
Additionally, I have also assisted students in successfully completing their Internal Assessments (IA) and Extended Essays (EE), guiding them through the research process and ensuring their work meets the highest standards.
My teaching philosophy revolves around creating an engaging and student-centered learning environment. I strive to foster a deep appreciation for physics by employing a variety of teaching methods, incorporating real-world examples, and encouraging active participation. I strongly believe in cultivating critical thinking skills and nurturing a growth mindset among my students, empowering them to become independent learners and confident problem solvers.
As a dedicated and experienced physics teacher, I am committed to providing the highest quality education, instilling a passion for physics, and supporting the academic success of my students. I look forward to continuing my journey in education, making a positive impact on young minds, and inspiring the next generation of scientists and innovators

Experience

Physics tutor (Mar, 2022–Present) at Lanterna Education

I have been conducting numerous online Physics revision workshops for IBDP students from various schools across Europe. These workshops have provided me with the opportunity to engage with students in a collaborative and interactive learning environment, helping them deepen their understanding of physics concepts and enhance their exam preparation. In addition to this, I also take regular ongoing tuition classes one to one for students in Europe and the US.
Physics teacher (May, 2016–Jun, 2021) at Garodia International Center for Learning, Mumbai

I have13 years of teaching experience, have taught for 8 years in ICSE and CBSE, and 5 years in IGCSE and IBDP curriculum. Satisfactions: For the past 5 years my ex-school Garodia international center for learning Mumbai had the highest A* in IGCSE exams for Physics out of the three sciences. I have also trained IBDP students so that more than 30% of them have secured 6 and 7 in the present year. My grades given in IAs were always within the tolerance band. Out of 10 students in the present batch 2 of my students scored a 7, 3 of them 6, 4 of the 5 and only 1 got a 4.This cohort had a combination of both SL and HL.My students have also secured Bs and Cs in the extended essay.
