How is it to have V. Balakrishnan (IIT Madras) as a teacher?

My brother is an alumnus of IIT Madras. According to him, it was a brilliant experience to have V.Balakrishnan sir as a teacher. 

The experience of watching sir’s lectures is the same as watching Cosmos or listening to Feynman’s lectures. He has an amazingly strong grasp on his subject. A lot of times, teachers don’t bother to teach some of the most important derivations. Instead, they put the entire burden on the students to figure out those derivations. 

Sir on the other hand, teaches his students every detail of a concept/calculation. He approaches every single problem from different angles, and each one of those angles opens a new perspective. Sir was the reason my brother decided to switch from Electrical Engineering to Applied Physics. 

V.Balakrishnan sir is a source of inspiration to many students.

According to my friends studying at IIT Madras, attending Mr. Balki's classes are really exciting. You simply just don't want any of it to get over.

• Professor V. Balakrishnan is like the Feynman (a US physicist) of the present times.
• He indulges with the concepts of mathematics and intuition uniquely. This makes the students grasp important concepts easily.
• The total number of topics which he has worked upon and the number of courses he has offered are surely remarkable.
• Personally, for one of my friends, Mr. Balki's lectures have had a life-changing impact on him. Learning from his lectures on topics like Classical Mechanics and Quantum Mechanics on YouTube had made him switch his career from the engineering domain to physics.
• Although my friend did not have the opportunity to attend a lot of his lectures. But delivered a seminar and Mr. Balki was in the audience at IIT M.

If you have even a little amount of interest in the domain of Physics, attending Mr. Balki’s lectures would simply fascinate you.
