Outreach

During the years 2005 to 2014 (for a period of 9 years) I have been teaching physics for poor and financially underprivileged but smart students. I have done this free of cost without any monetary benefits just out of sheer passion to train and interact with the students. These students are currently in very good places like IITs, IISc, abroad etc. and completed their PhDs. I have been associated with Prof. S V M Satyanarayana of IGCAR - BARC Kalpakkam and Pondicherry University in this charitable program which was also featured in the outlook magazine as the popular "sunday classes". In these classes I have taken almost all courses at the MSc level for the students, helping them to prepare for competitive exams like CSIR-NET-JRF, GATE, GRE, JEST etc..

Apart from this, I have also been guiding students (during the years 2005 to 2014) for the IIT JEE and Physics Olympiads. Many of the students who were trained by me are currently in good jobs and other research establishments worldwide. 

Apart from these, I organize (whenever I have time) some science popularization programs and activities as a freelancer (not associated with any organization or banner) in villages and semi urban areas, sometimes in cities also. I prefer to do this in my own way without much publicity as I do it out of sheer labour of love and not driven by any other benefits. In these programs, I hold discussions with some group of school students about the importance of science and encourage them by doing some hands on experiments and demonstrations designed by me. I also encourage them to ask questions or involve in an informal discussion and also conduct problem solving sessions which can possibly increase their curiosity and the urge to do science in future.
