Debendra Kumar Sahoo Email & Phone Number

Being a Visual Arts Teacher deeply rooted in reflective teaching practices and passionate about cross-cultural communication, I bring a collaborative spirit to the field. Holding a master's in sculpture from Utkal University of Culture, Odisha, I have accumulated nine years of teaching experience, spanning the International Baccalaureate programs—five years in IBDP, four in IBMYP, and three in IBPYP. Prior to my teaching journey, I spent seven years as a 3D character modeler in the animation and gaming industry, fostering a unique perspective that bridges the gap between technology and artistic expression. Engaging in continuous professional development, I have actively participated in various IB workshops, art camps, seminars, and symposiums, ensuring my teaching practices remain innovative and aligned with industry trends. My commitment to a caring and collaborative teaching style is complemented by the recognition received, including the Best Sculpture Award in 2003 from the All India Fine Arts and Craft Society. With a focus on creating an inclusive and nurturing learning environment, I bring a compassionate and reflective approach to inspire students to explore and express their creativity with confidence and authenticity.
