I have been teaching Students from various levels schools, engineering, jobs and others for quite long.
Many of my students have qualified Indian Engineering Services and various Public Sector Units.
Students finding difficulty to understand the Engineering subjects also comes to me for clarification.
This journey of teaching has been very exciting and i am loving to continue with this. I worked for Oil and Gas and high positions with many MNC and National company's and this training and tutoring is the most exciting compared to it.
