• Tell us more about your subject. How did you develop an interest in this field?

  I teach Mathematics and my interest in it began during my school days. I was always curious to understand the "why" behind the concepts rather than just memorizing them. Over time, I realized that explaining those concepts to others not only helped them but deepened my own understanding. That's where my passion for both the subject and teaching grew.

• What or who is the motivation behind you choosing to teach & why?

  My biggest motivation has always been my teachers, especially one mentor who made learning feel joyful and meaningful. Their encouragement and the way they believed in my potential inspired me to walk the same path - to be that guiding light for others, especially those who struggle to find confidence in themselves.

• How does your work help society?

  Teaching is one of the most direct ways to shape the future. By helping students gain knowledge, build confidence, and develop critical thinking, I'm contributing to a society that is more informed, skilled, and empathetic. Education doesn't just prepare people for jobs - it helps them become better individuals.

• If you had to think of a role model for your work, who do you think of & why?

  I would say Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam is my role model. Not only was he a brilliant scientist and leader, but also a humble teacher at heart. He believed in the power of education and youth and always emphasized innovation with values - something I try to bring into my teaching.

• Do you have an anecdote to tell us about your student or professional life?

  Yes, I once had a student who was extremely shy and lacked confidence in solving basic problems. Over time, through consistent encouragement and simplified explanations, she started actively participating and even helped her classmates. Seeing her growth was one of the most fulfilling moments of my teaching journey - a reminder that every small effort matters.
