I am a doctoral researcher at the Centre for Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, working on renewable energy systems under climate change risks. My research interests include climate change, renewable energy, sustainability, life cycle assessment, environmental impact, and data-analytical methods.
Alongside research, I have taught quantitative aptitude, data interpretation, logical reasoning, mathematics, and science to diverse learner groups. My teaching experience spans large workshops, one-to-one mentoring, and curriculum-oriented support for competitive examinations and school-level learning.
I also write and create educational content across philosophy, Sanskrit, and interdisciplinary learning. I enjoy translating complex scientific and mathematical ideas into accessible forms through writing, workshops, mentoring, and digital outreach.

Feedback that keeps me grounded and inspired.
Sudarshan Sir is very eloquent and has a very elaborate teaching technique, making sure that all his ideas are articulated well to each of his students. He’s very knowledgeable and approachable, and shows keen interest in watching his students do better each day!
Sir’s dedication to teaching is truly inspiring. He explains concepts with clarity, patience, and depth, making even the most difficult topics easy to understand. His passion for the subject and commitment to students’ learning is unmatched.
I strongly recommend Sudharshan as an outstanding tutor. He is highly qualified in Sanskrit, Mathematics, and Science, and has a deep mastery of the Vedas. I know him personally through our Vedha classes, where his knowledge and dedication have truly stood out.
Blessed to have such a Guru who can interpret the Sanatana truths in light of scientific facts. Through his classes he brings about a wonderful harmony of mythology, mysticism, and eternal truths in a simple and convincing manner which is relevant to modern minds. Sincerely grateful.
A master of his craft who leads by example. Be it engg., medicine, business, environmental science or even Sanskrit, Sudarshan first aced all the exams as a topper himself (JEE, NEET, ICSE, KVPY - studied in IISc., GMAT, CAT) with single/double digit national ranks in many, before turning into a teacher.
Sudarshan is a graduate from IISc, Bengaluru. He is well-qualified to teach Sanskrit and modern science.
Sudarshan Sir is one of the samskrita scholars with great faith in the shastras and an excellent mathematician. Learning from him should be our goal and aim.
Sudarshan is one among the finest teachers I have seen. He puts all the efforts required to make a student learning the subject. His knowledge and hold on the subject is excellent.
It was a wonderful experience learning from a young teacher who not only knew his theories well but was able to interact with students and make the transfer of knowledge practical!! The class plan was always such that not a minute was wasted and along with humour and games learning was joyful.
Sudarshan is a very good tutor. A good tutor is the one who has the ability to communicate in a way that makes the learner feel comfortable, motivated, and enjoy the learning. This skill is crucial for a successful tutor and I have seen this in Sudarshan. I would like to see improvement on conducting assessments from the initial stages when the student starts the classes. Overall had a good experience.
