Special Tutorial Services:
If you are interested in being tutored personally, using a mix of online training and assignments that are checked and sent back to you by email, please contact me. I have had extensive experience teaching professional courses on translation [English<>Hindi] as also teaching English at a variety of levels. I have also taught English to media students quite successfully.

 I have taught a Certificate Course in Translation Proficiency at my University for the last two years. I was also instrumental in framing the syllabi for the Course. From this year, 2006-2007, our University would be launching a Diploma in Translation and I would be teaching there as well. The focus of the course is bidirectional English<>Hindi. This is not a mere literary translation course but is designed towards the industry.

I was also interviewed by an American academic for a reputed American translation industry magazine, Multilingual Translating and Computing on my experience of translating airline menus. This was published in the December 2005 issue.
