Teaching & projects

Student Centred 21st Century Approach. 

Personal teaching philosophy: I see myself as a parent and my students as my children who need holistic training and care. I also regard my students as if they were my congregants. This two views make me go beyond the academic and professional training and take keen interest in their welfare and their well being.  I do not proselytize them but guide them whenever they seek counsel for academic, professional and general life.
