Mr Rolen Lionel Rodrigues

About

My objectives in teaching are to facilitate learning by helping students to gain the necessary skills to take control of and become active participants in their own learning.

I believe that knowledge gained through active participation is knowledge that will stay with an individual.

I believe Engineers with innovative ideas have a high impact on the society and nation.

Teaching allows me to nurture engineers to contribute to the change in the society and bring a new revolution in the growth of the country.
