Mr. Vishwanath Panchal
AM, GD Art

Mr. Vishwanath Panchal, a “Child Arts Specialist,” whom students fondly call “Panchal Sir,” is a man with a vast vision and the ability to think beyond boundaries. He started his journey as an art tutor more than five decades ago. He has won hundreds of awards and recognitions throughout his life and has judged numerous competitions himself.

His knowledge of child psychology helps him understand the innate abilities of a child. With this art, he has given voice to the imagination of thousands of students, garnering their interest in the art of drawing and painting. Though limited by the lack of resources, child art flourished under his guidance and mentorship. He prepared his students for various competitions, exhibitions, and entrance exams of various reputed institutes. His students have won thousands of national and international awards, and many of them are studying at various reputed national and international universities.

He is the first art tutor in the state of Gujarat, who encouraged his students to participate in international art competitions.

Due to his dedication, guidance, and mentoring, many of his students today are renowned art professionals, doctors, professors, builders, and business owners, who insist their kids also get art tutoring from their beloved “Panchal Sir.”

Mr. Milin Panchal
BA, ATD, GD Art

Milin has art in his DNA. He started teaching students even before completing his own study of arts. By his teen years, he had his own group of students, who are grateful for his mentoring even today.

Milin has a great ability to understand people’s emotions. Metaphorically speaking, instead of judging the book by its cover, he prefers to read the book thoroughly.

Due to his compassion, students create a strong bond with him. All his students, especially those in their teenage, feel free to talk to him about anything that might be troubling them, whether it’s the pressure of studies, school, family matters, or anything else. Probably that is one of the reasons why he is so popular among his young students.
