Us and Them? Join for a Biology class with a curious and open mind on everything we see and experience

I have an interdisciplinary approach to learning. I believe disciplines are interconnected even if they are taught separately or structured separately within school systems. This is the ethics of how I would approach teaching Biology to students. I would love to connect it to Physics, and Math and History or Social science because then we understand the world as an interconnected unit rather than as separate buckets of knowledge, the nuances of existence come into the light. My name is Dhanya and I'm an Assistant Professor teaching English Literature currently. I am formally trained in science in my undergrad and literature in my Master's so I come with a world view of both subjects. I was a home tutor for two years where I taught Biology, Chemistry and as well as History. Previously I also worked with an NGO called Make a Difference India as a teacher fellow. I used to teach Math and English to students from shelter homes. My favourite thing about being in class with my students is being challenged to think from their point of view. It encourages me to think outside the box. Students have shared that my classes are generally filled with a lot of curiosity and at the same time they look forward to exploring their imagination.
