Up Close & Personal
NNCME is an educational start-up, and in the true tradition of legendary origin stories, is beginning its journey from Professor Narain's home and 'garage centre'. Soon, NNCHE will expand its operations to larger spaces and wider audiences.
Professor Nandita Narain retired from St. Stephen's College, Delhi University after teaching for 40+ years. Now she wants to empower students in her independent capacity to achieve academic excellence. The NN Centre for Mathematics Education is a place where students achieve a clarity of concepts that builds a permanent foundation. NNCME is committed to providing a friendly and engaging environment that fosters growth and learning.
​
Professor Narain was a member of both the university executive council and the academic council. In addition to her current role, she previously served as President of the Delhi University Teachers Association (DUTA) and the Federation of Central Universities Teacher Associations (FECDUTA).
Throughout her career, she has been actively involved in shaping educational policy at the national level. Her work has contributed to the development of various national educational policies, focusing on recommendations for ensuring quality, inclusive, and accessible education for all.
