Namashkaram!
I am currently pursuing my Post-doctoral Research with Indian Council of Social Sciences Research (ICSSR) and am enrolled at the Lal Bahadur Shastry Central Sanskrit University. I have completed my Ph.D in Advaita Vedanta from the Annamalai University as a JRF of Indian Council of Philosophical Research (ICPR).
My teaching style involves 3Cs; Connect, Communicate and Care. I follow an interactive pedagogy and so my classes are engaging, interesting and fun.
I teach complex philosophical concepts in an easy and relatable manner by striking simple, day to day examples. I take classes in Hindi and English. I'm also well versed in Sanskrit. I am a subject matter expert of Advaita Vedanta and can also teach the nine foundational schools of Indian philosophy. My other areas of interest are environmental consciousness, critical thinking, ethics, comparative religion, Indian culture, temple architecture and philosophy.
You can also get through me for writing research papers and thesis or any other related assignment. I also guide students for UGC-NET, Civil Services and other competitive exam.
