Hi! Our goal will be to bridge the gap of where you are wrt your subject, and where you want to be - that could be scoring higher, passing papers, or developing a deeper understanding of the subject.

The overall methodology? BREAK IT DOWN!
It's not "Net Present Value"; it's "How much are we receiving vs how much are we paying".
It's not "Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income"; it's "Are we really earning these profits or losses? Will they be realised?"
It's not "Global minimum variance portfolio within Markowitz portfolio optimisation model"... well okay sometimes it is.

  • When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring

    "When my first SOFP balanced..."
    "When I first laid eyes on an annuity table..." is all untrue unfortunately.

    The first time I remember being "interested" in the subject was many years after I'd started learning it actually.

    It's when Ms. Tajinder, my accounting teacher, explained the concept of "Equity" to me like I was 5. No jargon or complexities; just a balance between an owner and their business. It changed the subject for me.

    Since then I've worked in great finance and accounting firms, undertaken research, studied and taught the basics and highest complexities of the fields - all because a teacher took the time to stoke the curiosity of her students.

    It's why I teach now.
  • Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).

    I teach these subjects at every level that they're taught at:
    - Accounting (Financial and Management)
    - Finance (Corporate, Entrepreneurial, Investment Management, Risk)
    - Economics
    - Business Strategy

    I don't have a favourite topic; but I do love it when we're able to take complex topics + language, and simplify it so that now it's just an everyday transaction (looking at you binomial option pricing)
  • Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?

    Taji ma'am from answer 1.

    Why? Teaching well is a skill in itself.
    Teaching so well you spread the love for your subject to your students is incredible.
  • What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?

    Asking yourself this question over and over.

    My answer has changed from "subject expertise" to
    "subject expertise, and communication" to
    "subject expertise, and communication, and flexibility" to
    "subject expertise, and communication, and flexibility, and understanding..."

    I'll keep asking myself this question - hopefully adding on more "ands".
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.

    So many of my answers have to do with Ms. Taji. My peers and I would resent practicing and applying concepts we knew - we knew the answers to the assignments, why would we?
    Ms. Taji challenged us in ways that made us curious - she would ask us "why?". We started wanting to practice, apply, and even explore.
  • What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or still facing in your subject?

    Sustainability accounting courses are an interesting area of study, since the field itself is developing. It is very interesting to see the direction the field and related studies are headed in, and how the course changes / develops every term that I teach it.
  • Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?

    Teaching. Indian food. Beatboxing (asking me to beatbox in class will land you with extra homework for the week)
  • What makes you a Superprof (besides answering these interview questions :-P)?

    My passion for my subjects, students, and teaching. My cape with a big "S" printed on it.
