With diverse practice and research activities, my teaching model is multi-disciplinary focusing around built and spatial environment. Teaching is one of my passions. It allows remaining a constant learner while sharing. The audience range from senior professionals, university graduates to school children. I have been involved with universities, organizations and schools from time to time such as, ASAP Amity University Chhattisgarh (https://www.amity.edu/raipur/), IIT-Bhilai (https://www.iitbhilai.ac.in/) IAPNU Nirma University (http://www.nirmauni.ac.in/IANU), IPSA Saurashtra University (http://ipsarajkot.org/), Ostrom Workshop Indiana University (https://ostromworkshop.indiana.edu/), CEPT University (http://www.cept.ac.in/), Anant Unviersity (http://anu.edu.in/about-us/the-university/), etc. The learning and sharing methods are usually of going back and forth between classroom and field. Besides degree based courses and supervisions, I enjoy conducting specially-designed courses, training, workshops, seminars on diverse topics that are unconventional yet required in the society especially focused on a pedagogy towards building active and sensitive alias responsible citizenship.
