Let me start with a brief introduction. I am an Assistance Professor in Mechanical Engineering Department at the Government Engineering College, Patan, Gujarat, India. Currently, I'm teaching 3 courses at the undergraduate level: Machine Design and Industrial Drafting, Dynamics of Machinery, and  Elements of Mechanical Engineering. Apart from these courses, I have taught most of the Machine Design subjects in the curriculum for the last 10 years.

   As a teacher, I always aspire to nurture and educate my students to become lifelong learners. I believe our role as educators goes beyond transmitting knowledge – our role is to nurture our students to become lifelong learners – to teach them the skills of 'learn how to learn' and to teach them the appreciation and the love for knowledge. As Socrates said, "I cannot teach anybody anything; I can only make them think". I believe that teaching is an exciting adventure in which both the teacher and the students participate and cooperate to achieve a common goal.

   I have agreat interest in using the internet as an alternative medium for learning and teaching.
