Anokh’s passion for teaching began as an AP biology tutor for his fellow classmates and quickly grew to helping kids with science, math, and even english essays. His passion for tutoring and mentoring heightened when he joined and became president of his school’s Science if Fun club, where he fell in love with the idea of teaching kids the mysteries of science through experiments. His love for science and math continues as he spends his time on a bioinformatics research project, hoping to have his findings published in the near future.

To avoid stress, Anokh also makes sure to participate in the activities he loves. In his spare time, he enjoys playing the tabla and spending time with his friends.
