Shweta

Certified Tutor

I am deeply passionate about empowering students to reach their full academic potential and gain confidence in their abilities. For me, tutoring is not just about helping students improve their grades, it's about sparking curiosity, building critical thinking skills, and fostering a love of learning that lasts a lifetime. Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with students from diverse backgrounds and learning styles, helping them navigate challenges and celebrate their successes.

My educational background includes a solid foundation in Biology, Chemistry, and Computer Science, which I studied through the CBSE Board in India. I hold an M. Tech. in Biochemical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) BHU, India and a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, India, both of which have provided me with an in-depth understanding of the life sciences. I tutor a range of subjects, including Biology, Chemistry, Microbiology, and Biotechnology. I especially enjoy working with students in Biology, Microbiology, and Biotechnology, these subjects explore the foundations of life itself and offer endless opportunities for exploration and discovery.

There's something especially rewarding about helping a student overcome a difficult concept and seeing that moment when everything clicks. I tailor each session to the student's needs and learning style, using a supportive, encouraging approach that emphasizes understanding over memorization. I believe in creating a collaborative learning environment where questions are welcomed and mistakes are viewed as learning opportunities. Whether a student is preparing for an exam or seeking to deepen their understanding, I aim to create an encouraging and structured learning environment that meets their individual needs.

I have taught undergraduate students in Biology, Microbiology, and Biotechnology, and many of them performed exceptionally well in their exams. When I transitioned to a new institution for my postdoctoral research, several students requested that I continue teaching them online, as they appreciated my clear teaching style and strong command of the subject matter.

Outside of academics, I enjoy reading scientific articles, running, listening music. These interests help keep my perspective fresh and often provide creative ways to connect classroom material to everyday experiences.
