IdentityAlthough never professionally, but I HAVE some good experience in teaching... I really feel I have a lot to offer to students who want to not only score good marks in exams but who in general want to improve their English-writing, English-speaking and communication skills. I have previously helped out students in their English Literature and grammar exams, I have given English-speaking and phonetics lessons to my friends who were a bit weak in that section. My scores in English (for instance, the 83 percent marks in English in the class Xth ICSE board exams or the 97 percentile in the English section of XAT 2013) stand me in good stead and that is the reason probably that many of my friends or juniors have approached me from time to time with their doubts. Add to that the fact that I am an avid reader and an active writer. I believe in very friendly, interactive sessions while teaching because that keeps the spirits up and learning happens best when the spirits are good.
In this age off globalization, I feel one has to be relatively well-versed in English and it is also true that this is one language that helps us get acquainted with a lot of other works in different languages. Most of the good translations of great Russian or French classics are the English translations, and not for no reason. One cannot deny that English reaches out to more people globally.
Going ahead in life, apart from one's mother tongue and the national language (which I must add are equally important), this age demands good command over English. And I would be extremely satisfied if I am able to share the knowledge and skills I have acquired over the years.
