Maths isn’t memorised. It’s understood.
Teaching mathematics since 2011
About
I head the JEE Division at Xylem Learning, part of the PhysicsWallah group, where I own the outcomes of the JEE Main and Advanced vertical: faculty, curriculum, content, test series and results.
I studied Electrical Engineering at IIT Madras (dual degree, 2007–2012) and graduated as branch topper and medallist. I began teaching in 2011 as a teaching assistant there, and in 2013 left a campus-placement engineering role to teach mathematics full time.

AI across Xylem’s academic departments
Alongside the JEE role, I lead AI adoption across Xylem’s academic departments: training the faculty, putting AI into content and assessment workflows, and getting more from the same academic resources.
Train
I train 100+ faculty and subject-matter experts in prompting, verification and LaTeX-first content production.
Deploy
I put AI-assisted pipelines into question banks, solution books, slide decks and question-paper verification, with custom agent skills built to each department’s standards.
Optimise
I use AI on routine academic work (content, verification, analysis) so faculty time goes into teaching and outcomes.
Turn AI possibilities into everyday academic practice: faculty capability, dependable workflows, and honest evaluation of what actually helps. AI in Education
