About
Questioning assumptions, look
outward, and learning from others!
Learning that occurs in a field setting is a powerful experience that promotes the development of new generation of scientists, engineers, environmental literacy, and instills social responsibility in our citizens. Teachers and career advisors can play a very supporting role in encouraging students to consider their options and make informed decisions.
Drawing inspiration from the deep roots of ancient Indian wisdom, I advocate for an experiential approach to education, breaking down the barriers between academic disciplines to tackle increasingly complex problems. Embracing the unconventional & the avant-garde, I embrace the quirks, the nerdy fascinations, and the playful experimentation that fuel creativity and innovation in our journey onwards.

Researcher Scholar, Scotland, UK
Neeraj Sir’s mentoring really inspired me to work harder, no matter how long it took to reach my goals. Because of his guidance, I achieved my dream of doing a PhD abroad. The best lesson I learned from him is to never give up, always do your best, and not worry about the results, just like in the Shree Bhagwat Geeta.
Whenever I needed motivation or a push to keep going, I would talk to Neeraj Sir. He was more than just a teacher or mentor; he was like a friend. This support helped me grow as a person and in my career. I am very grateful to have had him in my life.
Adarsh Sinha
Researcher, BARC, Mumbai
His mentorship has greatly improved my understanding and appreciation for chemistry, especially quantum mechanics. He makes complex ideas simple and easy to understand, which not only helped me learn but also sparked a real interest in the subject.
One lesson that has stuck with me is his focus on critical thinking, questioning assumptions, and visualizing complex systems. This way of thinking has helped me do well in his class and has also become a useful tool for all my learning.
Our interactions have greatly influenced my growth by encouraging a love for learning. His excitement for the subject was inspiring, and his willingness to have deep discussions pushed me to think critically and explore more. This has given me a lifelong desire to expand my knowledge and explore new things.

Post Graduate, IIT Roorkee
It's been a long time since we last met, but Neeraj Sir’s inspirational words still resonate with me, continually motivating me to reach new milestones. His teaching made us love quantum mechanics, even as we occasionally delved into complex topics like Quantum Entanglement and Qubits. His impeccable teaching skills made understanding Quantum Mechanics achievable, despite its difficulty. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for his constant support and guidance.
Thanks to his encouragement and attention, I completed my master's degree from the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IITR). I have reached out to several top university professors worldwide for PhD positions, and I am thrilled to share that I received positive responses from 13 out of 27 professors I contacted. These universities are among the most prestigious globally, including 8 in the top 100: {Princeton, UBC, University of California, Washington State University, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Heidelberg University}.
I would like to especially mention two universities from which I didn't expect positive replies but received them: <University College London> and the <University of Chicago>, both ranked in the top 10 worldwide. Words cannot fully express my gratitude to Neeraj Sir for his unwavering support and guidance. He has always been there for me whenever I needed him.

Neeraj Sir’s mentoring gave me the guidance, support, and knowledge to improve my skills, make better decisions, and reach my goals. I became eager to learn and explore new ideas.
Kindness and empathy help create strong connections and make a positive impact. Our conversations were important for my growth. I learned about different perspectives that expanded my understanding. His questions and feedback improved my responses and my ability to help myself and others. Each interaction added to my technical learning.

His guidance was priceless during tough times, helping me handle challenges and make smart choices. His advice on perseverance and adapting has really shaped how I face problems and seize opportunities. Our talks have been crucial for my growth. His ideas and support always push me to do my best and try new things.

Undoubtedly, his mentoring has had a profound impact on me. Before my two years at ATHENS, my school exam scores ranged between 40-60%, with no success in Olympiads. Two years later, I secured admission into one of India's most prestigious colleges in Delhi with a 98.79%ile in JEE Mains. Beyond academics, his guidance turned me into a problem solver in real life and gave me clarity about my life goals, significantly boosting my confidence. His sessions were not just teaching but problem-solving exercises where we tackled real-life challenges. Instead of giving us direct answers, he guided us towards solutions, fostering independence and critical thinking.
Additionally, I gained valuable religious insights thanks to him. I vividly recall how, whenever I sought his advice, I'd enter his office feeling lost and uncertain, only to leave motivated and confident, armed with clear strategies for personal growth and success.

His mentoring and teaching have had a big impact on me. He wasn't just a teacher but a 'Guru,' and everyone he guided feels the same. His way of teaching was so good that every chapter he explained became my favorite. He even made me think about going into research. He always pushed us to think deeply about topics, not just memorize them, which really improved my critical thinking.
His guidance didn't stop at schoolwork; he also helped us with personal problems. Even though I didn't have any issues, many of my friends found his support invaluable during tough times. Talking to him, whether in his office or in class, always motivated me and helped me stay focused. I'm really grateful to have had a Guru like Neeraj Sir who helped me find my way forward.

Reflecting on his teachings during my time as his student, I deeply appreciate how he taught physics with clarity and passion. His method not only helped me grasp difficult concepts but also taught me discipline and analytical skills. The critical thinking and problem-solving abilities I gained in his classes have been essential in my journey through medical school.
Despite the challenges of my studies, his solid foundation has given me confidence and perseverance. Understanding the reasons behind things has been especially helpful in studying complex topics in physiology and other medical sciences.
Beyond physics, he taught me important moral values from our Hindu beliefs, focusing on principles like duty (dharma) and action (karma). His lessons on integrity, perseverance, and empathy have guided me through my education. I've learned to approach my responsibilities with honesty and dedication, overcome obstacles, and show kindness to others. These values have not only helped me academically but have also enriched my interactions with classmates, patients, and mentors in medical college. His teachings have truly shaped both my personal growth and professional development.
I want to sincerely thank him for his guidance and support. His influence goes beyond academics, and I'm grateful for the skills and mindset he has instilled in me.

His guidance has had a big impact on both my work and personal life. He encouraged me to try new ideas and methods, which has been really empowering. One tip that stuck with me is using the "reverse method" to solve problems by understanding their root, whether in exams or daily life.
Even though we didn't interact often, those times still helped me become more hardworking and punctual than I was a few years ago. His support means a lot to me, and I'm very thankful for his role in my journey.
Thank to him for being such a great teacher, mentor, and friend.

I would like to thank him for being my mentor and guiding me in the right direction during my JEE preparation.

Post Graduate, IIT Roorkee
Neeraj Sir’s mentorship and our interactions have had a great impact on my growth professionally as well as personally. His constant guidance and support has helped me to extend my boundaries and work harder to achieve my goals. His advice to remain calm in tough situations and think with cool mind has stayed with me and has helped me a lot! His ‘Quantum Lectures’ have always been my favourite and now i try to inculcate the same in my lectures as well. Thank you sir for everything ✨.
