Shaksham has been a great mentor for me so far. He has very extensive theoretical and practical experience in the subject area. He has provided me with exercises and advice suited to my level of experience and has always replied promptly to my queries. He is very friendly, approachable and a great motivator.

He's a really great guy, has prepare a lot for his guidance, has a lot of experience in the field and also good at explaining and transferring these guidance to someone else. Because of the fact that he's Indian, his accent may be a bit weird to people, but when you get used to it, it should be fine. He had experienced the same problem with everyone in ML/DL/NLP, so he's more than capable to help anyone who just getting started. And because he has experienced working for companies, he can also help you with more advanced concepts. Overall, I'm satisfied by the knowledge he gives and I would recommend everyone to get mentored by him.

This was not working out for me. Shaksham tried, but I don't think he understood what I exactly needed and perhaps his teaching style is not compatible. I decided to cancel rather than try to have more meetings with him to get him to learn about me.
