My name is Sonu Poonia. I am a B.Tech. graduate from Jawaharlal Nehru Technical University, Hyderabad. I have had an on and off relationship with teaching since 2017. I started teaching in a college in 2017, I left the job after seven months, but I couldn't leave the profession. So I started teaching as a freelance tutor and provided home tuitions to students from 8th to 12 class. I was mostly teaching Mathematics and Science. Later, in 2020, I also worked with Unacademy as a freelance doubt solver. I stopped teaching in November 2021. But I again started giving private tuitions in 2022. Now, whenever I get time, I give private tuitions. I love teaching not only because I like the subject, but also because I like interacting with people, especially kids because they have all the new ideas and thoughts to share every day. And I find it very refreshing and rewarding. Apart from teaching, I also like gardening and reading novels. I also like listening to Indie music in my free time. But spending time with my friends and having random discussions is my favorite pastime.

My teaching style is purely based on interaction. I generally introduce concepts with real life examples and then ask students to give me some similar examples. Then I move to concept explanation. In concept explanation, to make sure that my student is actively listening, I ask them questions or ask them to assist me in some activity. After concept explanation, I move towards solving the problems. This also gives me an idea if my student understood the concept or not. If not, I assist them with the areas where they are facing some difficulty. I try to end my classes with some cliffhangers so that students can think about the next topic. As a teacher, I know that my main purpose is to make sure that my student learns the concept. But I also know that Mathematics can really be boring if delivered in a monotonous way. So I focus on making my class interactive and fun. I make sure that my student feels comfortable in raising any doubt they have and for that, I spend initial few minutes of my every class on rapport building. I think that's my special feature as a teacher.
