Hi, I’m Shivani Sanger , the founder of Shivani STEM Scholars, a PhD Researcher in Biological Anthropology, a dyslexic learner, and someone who understands what it’s like to work through education in a way that doesn’t always follow the traditional path.
I’ve earned a BSc in Biomedical Science, an MSc in Forensic Medical Science, and an MSc in Professional Human Osteoarchaeology. I am currently completing my PhD in Biological Anthropology. Alongside my studies, I’ve worked multiple part-time jobs, taught university students as a teaching demonstrator, sessional lecturer, and taken on research and committee roles, all while learning how to balance my commitments in a way that supports my needs as a dyslexic student.
That experience shaped my vision for this platform: to provide students with accessible, affordable, and supportive learning, whether through 1:1 tutoring, online courses, or free resources. I know how hard it can be to get help, especially when you’re navigating learning challenges or simply trying to keep up.
Everyone learns differently. Whether you’re neurodivergent or simply someone who needs a bit of extra support, you deserve access to learning that makes sense for you. It’s not about fitting into one way of learning, it’s about finding the way that works best for you.
