Beyond academics and authorship, Dr. Tewari is also a poet. His collection My Beloved Angel is a heartfelt tribute to his late companion “Bhoo,” weaving themes of love, grief, and healing. Fluent in English, Hindi, Bengali, and French, he expresses through poetry a deeply personal side of his scholarly personality, proving that language is both an intellectual and emotional art.
Currently a professor at Amity University, Dr. Tewari continues to inspire through lectures, workshops, and global appearances, including guest sessions at Oxford, Cambridge, and Rotary Clubs.

Through his institution, writings, and mentorship, Dr. Rishikesh Tewari is shaping a new generation of confident and capable communicators. His work transforms English from a subject into a life skill — a bridge between knowledge and opportunity. As he profoundly states, “If language is the passport to the future, then every student deserves a visa.”
