The course is designed to suit all levels of students. All the important topics and sub-topics of genetics will be covered in a easy to understand manner.The course has been designed keeping in mind the need of the students so as to make it more lively and easier to grasp. Live videos to make the students understand in an interactive manner,Powerpoint presentations and documents with notes will be provided for the students to make it easier for them to learn the subject.
The students will be given a brief over view as to what will be covered in the upcoming chapters/ sessions.

Skills:
I am a Research Fellow by profession and an educator by passion. I love to teach students and make them understand complex topics in a fun and lively manner. I have been teaching students from the past two years of various age groups starting from class 8 up to postgraduation, so I have a proper understanding of student psychology of each and every age group. I also am currently working as a Certified dietitian educator and academic instructor in various other online and offline platforms.
