About Me

I have completed all the Undergraduate with Biology and Chemistry major and Master’s degree in Chemistry from Tribhuvan University, Nepal. Recently, I have completed second Master’s degree in Chemistry with research on organic chemistry from Long Island University, Brooklyn, New York. After completing my Master’s degree in Nepal, I taught chemistry about 7 years for high school and undergrad students. My first academic teaching experience began to support myself financially while studying Bachelor’s degree and Master’s degree in chemistry when I was in Nepal. Similarly, I taught general chemistry and organic chemistry to undergrad students at Long Island University where I was awarded a “Teaching Assistantship” for two years. Besides chemistry, I like to teach other sciences like basic biology, physics and even mathematics. My friendly nature and zeal towards helping my classmates and other tutoring activities through my academic career has slowly developed the “teacher” in me. Hence, I have chosen teaching as a profession because “Teaching” ranks amongst the nation’s top five prestigious professions where one is involved in shaping the future of an individual, a society and ultimately country. Understanding how students learn is one of the significant aspects of teaching. This is linked to their “knowledge” background and maturity. My main goal is to encourage independent thinking and analytical reasoning to augment students’ problem solving skills, thus encouraging them to not just memorize. I apt them to question at every stage: “Why? How?” and satisfy their curiosity, instead of assuming the instructor is always right. My favorite approach is: “If you don’t have any question, I have some for you”.
