I am very interested to build my career in Academia. Myself being a student of basic science at IISER, about to graduate by June 2021, I have experience tutoring standard X students in Physics and Mathematics and standard XII students in Physics. In 2019, I was selected as a volunteer for INO (Indian Neutrino Observatory) at Vigyan Samagam, a mega science exhibition in India, where also I was required to give demonstrations to young school kids on various interesting developments going on the field of Neutrino Physics. I like to always experiment and find alternative ways to explain different concepts so that it is always easier to understand and grasp the crux of the problem.
