Teaching Experience in detail in Investment Planning classes

I have been actively investing in the Indian stock markets for over 17 years, with experience across multiple market cycles including the 2008 global financial crisis, the 2020 pandemic crash, and the recent post-COVID bull market. These experiences have shaped my investment philosophy and strengthened my ability to balance both fundamental and technical approaches. My teaching journey began with my YouTube channel "Investing Gurukul", where I simplify complex financial concepts into clear, actionable lessons. Through in-depth videos, I have educated thousands of viewers on company analysis, sector studies, mutual funds, and investment strategies tailored for Indian investors. The positive feedback and growing community inspired me to formalize my teaching through structured classes. As a Certified Mutual Fund Distributor (MFD) and an IIM graduate, I combine academic rigor with practical market insights. My focus is on empowering learners to make independent investment decisions rather than relying solely on market tips or trends. I emphasize building strong foundations in: Fundamental Analysis – reading balance sheets, profit & loss statements, and cash flows. Valuation Techniques – understanding intrinsic value and margin of safety. Technical Analysis – spotting price trends, patterns, and momentum signals. Portfolio Construction & Risk Management – creating diversified portfolios aligned with goals. My teaching style is highly interactive. I encourage students to bring real-life company cases or their own portfolios to class, which we analyze together. This hands-on approach ensures practical learning and immediate application. Ultimately, my mission is to help students develop the confidence and clarity to invest for long-term wealth creation, while avoiding common pitfalls that most retail investors face.

Teaching Experience in detail in Mutual Funds Training

I have been investing and guiding people in mutual funds for over 17 years, across different market cycles. As a Certified Mutual Fund Distributor (MFD), I combine regulatory knowledge with practical insights to help learners understand how to use mutual funds effectively for wealth creation. My teaching journey began when I realized that many investors either chase short-term returns or blindly follow tips without understanding the basics of asset allocation, fund categories, or risk profiles. Through my YouTube channel – Investing Gurukul, I started creating detailed, research-backed videos explaining concepts such as equity vs. debt funds, SIP vs. lump sum investing, index funds, sectoral funds, and hybrid strategies. This experience gave me the ability to simplify complex mutual fund jargon into clear and practical lessons. In my sessions, I focus on helping students: Understand different mutual fund categories and their suitability. Learn how to select funds based on goals, risk appetite, and time horizon. Analyze fund performance beyond just past returns (AUM, expense ratio, portfolio quality, etc.). Build long-term wealth through systematic investing and disciplined portfolio reviews. My approach is interactive and case-study driven. I encourage learners to bring their own financial goals or existing fund portfolios, and we work together to design an optimal investment plan. My objective is simple – to equip every student with the knowledge and confidence to choose the right mutual funds, avoid common mistakes, and steadily grow wealth over time.
