Every WhyCosmos instructor is qualified in their field, with a degree and real experience in space science or education. You meet one in a free demo before you pay anything.
Every instructor holds a degree in a space-science or engineering field — an aerospace engineer, an astrophysicist, an ex-ISRO scientist — not a generalist tutor.
They have worked in the field they teach, from building spacecraft communication systems to studying the night sky, and bring that first-hand context into class.
They teach curiosity over memorisation, asking questions of each child in a small live group rather than reading slides at a crowd.
Every family meets an instructor in a free demo class first — so you judge the teaching for yourself before any payment.
Aerospace Engineer
Rishika is an aerospace engineer who watched the Chandrayaan-2 and Chandrayaan-3 missions launch live from Sriharikota — experiences that deepened her belief that space belongs to everyone. She brings flight and spaceflight to life for young learners through storytelling and outreach, bridging complex science and a child’s natural sense of wonder about the cosmos.
Astrophysicist
Purva is an astrophysicist and astronomy educator with five years of teaching experience. She has a gift for making complex space science clear, accessible, and genuinely engaging. Her teaching favours curiosity over memorisation — encouraging students to ask questions and think critically — because she believes astronomy is for everyone, not a select few.
Ex-ISRO Scientist · B.Tech + PGDE
Ankita holds a B.Tech in Electronics Engineering and a PGDE from Birmingham City University, and spent over eight years as an ISRO scientist developing communication systems for Indian spacecraft. She combines that space-technology background with inquiry-based teaching, designing engaging, hands-on lessons in astronomy, astrophysics, and space engineering that foster curiosity and critical thinking.
The best way to judge an instructor is to watch them teach. Book a free 45-minute demo — live, with an instructor, and no payment details asked.
