Meet the Founder
Rajat has been guiding students through the intricacies of Physics and Math since 2017. As a top-performing student and a mentor to thousands, he has crafted a unique teaching approach that demystifies the toughest Physics and Math exams. His master’s in international management, building on his undergraduate studies, enhances his ability to connect with a diverse, global student base.
​
During high school, Rajat's passion for mathematics ignited as he mastered concepts using study materials and question banks. He quickly embraced the Feynman method, realizing that teaching others was the best way to deepen his own understanding. This approach became central to his learning journey. His dedication not only led him to top his class by the end of year 12 but also ignited a lifelong passion for teaching, rooted in empathy and a commitment to deep understanding. Rajat's preparation for the CAT 2017 (98th percentile) marked the most focused period of his academic life, significantly broadening his perspective.
​
Rajat also offered home tuition to younger children, going door-to-door from 2015 to 2019. While some well-wishers advised against it, viewing it as unproductive, this experience became the foundation of his teaching career. When COVID-19 shifted education online, Rajat embraced the transition wholeheartedly. While many doubted the effectiveness of online learning, he saw it as an opportunity to integrate technology, simulations, and advanced resources in ways that traditional methods couldn't match.
Among the first movers to integrate AI tools like ChatGPT into his classes, Rajat views it not as a substitute for tutoring but as a perfect complement. In his words, "AI amplifies our sessions, bringing depth and flexibility that traditional methods alone can't provide." He uses it extensively and encourages his students to explore it, believing it personalizes learning and enhances intuitive understanding of otherwise challenging concepts. This belief in the future of online education continues to fuel his passion.
​​​
Rajat's passion for physics was profoundly influenced by engaging works such as the Feynman Lectures and "Until the End of Time" by his favorite physicist, Brian Greene. On weekends, he immerses himself in the world of sci-fi, often binge-watching favorites like "Interstellar" and "Oppenheimer." These films resonate with his fascination for exploring complex scientific concepts through compelling narratives. He finds a similar thrill in Brian Greene's Special Relativity course, his go-to resource that not only deepens his understanding of physics but also inspires him profoundly. In his free time, Rajat avidly expands his knowledge through extensive reading, driven by a conviction that exploring physics and mathematics is a pursuit truly worth undertaking.
​
Outside the classroom, Rajat’s deep appreciation for science is quietly reflected in his use of a Celestron AstroMaster telescope to admire the rings of Saturn from his backyard in Delhi. He always keeps a pocket microscope with him to explore anything that piques his curiosity. Rajat also enjoys sharing his passion for science by gifting educational toys to young minds, sparking their interest in the wonders of the natural world.
​
When not teaching or studying, Rajat can often be found playing chess. In 2011, he earned the title of International FIDE Rated Chess Player with a standard ELO of 1691. He enjoys solving brain teasers and occasionally engages in intense chess matches with his students. Rajat is passionate about traveling and has traveled to over 15 countries. Exchanging cultures, knowing about new places, and interacting with people help him enhance his tutoring and educational approach, allowing him to bring diverse perspectives and real-world examples into his teaching.
