• Facilitated comprehensive online training for physical directors and school and college PE teachers to enhance readiness for UGC-NET exam.

As a results-driven UGC-NET Physical Education Mentor, I have a proven track record of guiding aspirants—many of whom are active Physical Directors and school/college PE teachers—to successfully pass the UGC NET exam. My teaching methodology focuses on simplifying complex subjects such as Exercise Physiology, Health Education, and Research Methodology, ensuring that my students not only understand the theory but also master the exam patterns required for certification. By bridging the gap between field experience and academic rigour, I have helped numerous professionals achieve their goal of becoming UGC-NET qualified educators. I am an accomplished Physical Education professional and published author of a comprehensive guide on First Aid and Emergency Care, specialising in bridging advanced physiological theory with practical life-saving techniques for athletes and educators.

• As a Physical Education Teacher in ICSE school, I demonstrated exceptional leadership by independently organizing and executing Annual Sports Days and establishing the school’s first-ever competitive teams. My expertise in technical coaching led to State-level representation for my athletes in Discus Throw, alongside podium finishes for my newly formed teams in Volleyball, Basketball, Kabaddi, and Ball Badminton. I specialized in delivering comprehensive Yoga sessions for classes 6 to 10, notably leading Mass Yoga demonstrations for over 100 students with precision and discipline. By utilising a wide range of modern sports equipment and pedagogical tools, I achieved remarkable results in talent identification and athletic development. This proven track record of developing elite talent and managing large-scale sports events provides a practical, results-oriented foundation for my current work as a UGC-NET Physical Education Mentor.

Directed physical education for undergraduate and postgraduate women's students, significantly enhancing active participation through strategic implementation of minor games and recreational activities.

Immediately following my M.Phil degree, I began my career as a Physical Director at an Arts and Science College, where I demonstrated exceptional capability in both coaching and event management. I served as the Organizing Secretary for the Inter-Collegiate Handball Tournament, leading our college team to a First Place victory and mentoring several players who went on to achieve Inter-University Representation. Additionally, I coached the college Kabaddi team to a podium finish at the inter-collegiate level and successfully managed diverse student participation in various sports events, and medical camps. Beyond coaching, I increased physical literacy for UG and PG women students through minor games, and specialised fitness sessions. Currently, I leverage this extensive field experience as a UGC-NET Online Mentor, helping Physical Directors successfully pass the NET exam while preparing to commence my regular PhD in Madurai in six months.
