I am a teacher at a CBSE school and teach as well as guide students of grades 7th, 9th and 10th. I always try to clear to concept to each and every child so that they generate interest in the subject. Besides school, I run an institution with the name 'Coaching Academic Minds' where I provide tuitions to the students from grades 6 to 12. I usually involve students in my explanation relating to daily life experiences so that they get involve in the discussion. I am always there to help in their queries which they normally ask in a friendly environment. Thanks Mr Nitish Thukral TGT maths
