Thank you for sharing this way of approach. But I have a question... After my Masters in Molecular Biology (covid19 batch), I took a break for 1.5 years, where I provided Biology coaching to 11th and 12th students (a way of providing financial support to my household). Alongside that I was actively learning about my field of interest and also preping for the entrace tests. Now, I am approaching professors (RNA Biology) to pursue a research oppurtunity (internship or training). How can I explain this gap year (basically lack of experience) either in an e-mail or interviews? I also have a publication (desertation work, transcriptomics)
