About Shashank
I’m a third-year mechanical engineering student. What I love about engineering is that it is a very balanced blend of the pure and applied fields of study. Some areas of maths which at first seem to have no real-world use, surprise us by appearing in physical phenomena as common as mechanical vibrations. As a result, I cannot stress enough the importance of having an appreciation of where a mathematical formula or physical law ‘comes from’. Working from first principles to find how a result is obtained can be an extremely rewarding journey, so I always aim to include in my lessons a derivation or proof of what I am about to teach. This stems from my own dissatisfaction when told to ‘take someone’s word for it’. I like to know how and why something works and I encourage students to not accept things at face value and to delve deeper for a better understanding. This approach towards learning has helped me greatly throughout my school career allowing me to think spontaneously, especially during exams, and efficiently obtain solutions to even novel problems.

My teaching style is very much inspired from that of my maths teacher, which I found to be very engaging and thought stimulating. My lessons start with asking the students how much they know on the topic at hand and whether they know why something is the way it is. Their answers help me assess where the gaps in their knowledge lie. I ask them questions on this to encourage them to think out loud while I provide them with prompts to guide their thinking in the right direction. Explaining topics this way, where the students have had to work for the result means that they are better able to retain this new information than if I were simply speaking to them. Additional practice outside lessons is also encouraged to consolidate the knowledge. Throughout the lesson, as new things of increasing difficultly are taught, I will be giving them questions to put the newly-learned skills to practice. For this to run smoothly, I will have prepared a bank of questions of a range of difficulties beforehand.
