She wants to share her research analytical skills in the education industry to make it more accessible. She believes education makes an individual remarkable in society. She wants to explore her research knowledge to make the education industry an erudite sphere.

Her former work experience with Nepal Tourism made her more prominent in the tourism sector. She loves writing so she follows her passion by writing on different online portals. She takes Quora as one of the prominent platforms to express her individualistic opinions for politics, films, tourism and education.

Apart from writing, she likes to read books on mythology. She is a part of a program initiated by JNU called UNNOTICED for the underprivileged children who dare to dream. She teaches English in that program on her weekends. She loves to study psychology of the children because very few work on the mental health of the children. It is quite difficult to communicate with the children. She finds it challenging to know the inner strength of the children. Is the education industry helpful for her? She believes that edu-tech is a booming industry that will change the mind mappings of the future generation and their parents. With her wide knowledge in new media and her academic expertise she wants to offer a one stop solution to the student’s community.

Sayantani’s piece of word

Children are the future of the nation. While choosing an academic program, a student decides the future path of life. One should be critical enough to know the best thing possible for the future. Due to less knowledge about the academic world, the student might make the wrong decision in finding the right option for a career.
