Teaching

Assistant Professor, School of Computer Science, UPES Dehradun

Teaching Philosophy

My teaching approach is learner-centric, designed to foster active engagement and deep understanding. I employ evidence-based pedagogical techniques including Think-Pair-Share discussions, Jigsaw collaborative learning, and peer instruction to create an inclusive and dynamic classroom environment.

I believe in connecting theoretical concepts to real-world applications, particularly in demonstrating how fundamental computer science principles underpin cutting-edge AI and machine learning systems. This approach helps students appreciate the relevance of foundational subjects like Discrete Mathematics, Data Structures, and Algorithms to modern technological innovations.
