About Me
Hi! I'm Varnika.

I believe learning should feel like a conversation, not a lecture.

I have an interdisciplinary background in Computer Science Engineering, Mental Health Social Work, and International Development, and I've worked with the United Nations for four years.

Along the way, I've designed training programmes, taught English at summer camps, and worked with people from many different countries and cultures.

Outside of work, I'm a published poet who loves literature, storytelling, and language. Whether we're exploring English, computer science, or academic writing, I enjoy helping students build confidence, ask questions, and discover their own way of learning.

I know that every student is different. Some learn best through examples, others through conversation or practice. My goal is to create a supportive, relaxed space where you feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions, and growing at your own pace.

Whether you're preparing for an exam, improving your English, learning programming, or simply curious about a new subject, I'd love to help you achieve your goals.

Whether you're in school, university, or simply interested in learning programming, I'll help you develop confidence and the analytical thinking skills needed to succeed.
