Dr. Karthikeyan R

Founder & Chairman

 I adore myself as a person with an ardent desire and a heart to be “The change” that the society needs. This force in me drove towards initiating a platform to deliver quality education and training for several Govt school NEET ASPIRANTS across the state. I have been nominated for several Youth Icon Entrepreneur awards, notably the VIVEKA SHRI- YOUTH ICON INSPIRATION award, Special Appreciation award from Sri Aurobindo Society ZIIEI – Delhi. I strongly believe that this initiative should reach several aspiring candidates looking for an opportunity to explore and give births and lives to the society with a scalpel and a stethoscope.

Mr. Keerthivatsan S

My journey from being a NEET 2018 aspirant who faced setbacks to an engineering graduate turned mentor has shaped my unwavering commitment to the success of NEET aspirants. I chose to use that experience as a driving force for my own growth and to uplift others on their NEET journey. My own trials taught me the value of mentorship, guidance, and resilience. Beyond academic excellence, I aim to nurture the confidence, critical thinking skills, and ability to handle challenges of NEET aspirants. Together, we’ll prepare you not just for NEET but for a lifetime of success in medicine.

Mr. Ashwin A L

Physics Faculty - Head

 I have completed my Bachelor’s in Production Engineering. Despite my background in Computer Science, I possess a deep passion for physics and am determined to challenge the stereotypes surrounding it. I thoroughly enjoy the process of teaching and firmly believe that the knowledge we acquire is meant to be shared with those who are in need of it. I would like to use this opportunity to propagate the importance of physics and to make its learning accessible and engaging for students. My ultimate goal is to inspire a shift in the way students perceive and approach physics. And I find AF as a very right platform to reach out to the most deserving and the needy students.
