I am teacher for Hindi at NESA, OSU. I am a native of India and grew up speaking Hindi, Marathi and English. I enjoy teaching my students not only the Hindi language but also bringing about an awareness of culture, history and contemporary issues of India. I appreciate that my students come to class for variety of reasons both personal and professional and with various proficiency levels with Hindi language. I enjoy teaching my students who are typically from variety of backgrounds but with common interest of learning more about culture of India. My goal is for the students to enjoy learning the language and feel comfortable to grow at their pace. I am committed to help all my students enjoy learning about language and culture and to achieve their goals.
