IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I currently teach financial literacy and business fundamentals to students aged 6–16 through project-based lessons, including intro to stock market analysis, business idea development, and crowdfunding basics. I enjoy simplifying complex financial concepts for young, non-technical audiences while keeping learning practical and outcome-focused.
I also run an agri-business venture where I own budgeting, costing, pricing strategy, and cash flow tracking, and I built a unit economics model (cost-per-kg, break-even output volume, and gross margin) with scenario analysis for capacity expansion and ROIC. Previously, as an Accounts Assistant (Intern), I managed multi-entity tax compliance, filed 60+ individual and corporate income tax returns end-to-end, and supported ledger reconciliation and MIS/P&L preparation.
