Punam Rathi

Meet Punam Rathi

I am an experienced Biology educator, Student Life Coach, CBSE Resource Person and PhD researcher with extensive experience working with school students and educators.

Through years of classroom teaching and educational facilitation, I have observed that many students do not struggle because they lack ability. They often struggle with focus, procrastination, inconsistent study habits, lack of confidence, academic pressure, ineffective study strategies and uncertainty about their goals.

My aim is to help students become confident, focused, responsible and independent learners. My coaching approach combines my experience as an educator with practical student-development strategies, helping learners understand themselves, develop effective habits and make meaningful progress in their academic journey.
