I have been involved in the field of academics and been a top student right from the beginning. After passing my high school, I cleared one of the most prestigious exams in India IIT-JEE and secured AIR-2543 among a total of 1.5 million applications in the two step selection process. After completing 4 years of my Bachelor program in Economics from IIT Kanpur, I chose to enroll in one year Master program in Barcelona Graduate school of Economics, Barcelona, Spain. Maintaining academic brilliance during my master degree, I was offered along with a handful of students to continue my PhD program from University of Pompeu Fabra, one of the most prestigious institutes in Spain along with a TAship offer. However, I received admission from University of Bonn too along with a full fellowship in Integrated Master/PhD program and I have to chose to pursue my PhD from there instead.
Regarding my tutoring experience, I was a subject expert in Economics with Chegg India and had been involved with the organization for past 7 months. My responsibility there comprised of providing quality solutions to the Bachelor level questions in Economics posted by students from all over the world and helping them clear their doubts. I have been a consistent employee right from the beginning maintaining the performance standards to submit over 150 quality questions per month on average and have gained ample experience in understanding and clearing doubts faced by students.
