Teaching Philosophy

I believe that a teacher should always be a learner first. Teaching is a profession where one has to keep on learning about all the developments taking place across the world to ensure that updated and latest knowledge is delivered to the students. Research is a tool for building knowledge and facilitating learning. Therefore, in my opinion, to serve best as an academician, timely enhancement of knowledge through research and acclimatization of new techniques is a must.
