About Nishant
Hey! My name is Nishant, and I am a student at Brown University, studying computer science and economics. I love learning; my interests span from the intricacies of linguistics to the beauty of mathematics. I genuinely enjoy teaching and have been doing it for over four years. I started by heading a volunteer group that teaches English and mathematics to underprivileged children at a human development center. A year after our group started teaching, our students increased their math marks by around 25 percentage points on average and I was successful in teaching conversational English to 5 students from scratch. I also taught children English, mathematics, and science at a local government school. In addition to my teaching efforts, I started a private tutoring service in my neighborhood, specializing in SAT and mathematics. Outside academia, I am an avid, self-taught jazz pianist. Nothing makes me more relaxed than improvising over a jazz classic.

To me, any subject can be related to a delicate, inverted pyramid. You start with a basic concept, such as addition in mathematics, and build more layers on top of that, until you reach a high point in the pyramid, which could be differential equations, for example. If any part of this pyramid is not solid, it will be unstable. I feel that no one can be bad at a subject; it’s just that for some people an integral concept may not be clear, which causes a hindrance to adding more layers to the proverbial pyramid, leading to low confidence and discouragement. My teaching methodology is based on finding this conceptual gap and clearing it before moving on to higher level topics. I do this by employing various methods to identify a conceptual gap, from just talking about concepts to making diagnostic tests. I also strongly believe in Feynman’s technique, which emphasizes on the power of explanation. A good teacher, in my opinion, should be able to break down a complicated idea to an elementary school student. Finally, it is imperative that the student is an essential part of the teaching dialogue: the Socrates method. I strive to make sure that the student is actively engaged in the topic to cultivate interest and show results.
