Since graduating from the National Institute of Design in 1994, Oni has been regularly going back to teach courses in both design and filmmaking. His workshops that focus on production design and ad-film making are his way of giving back to the community. He also conducts occasional film workshops at DJAD, Coimbatore and ISDI Parsons, Mumbai.
According to Oni, every teaching experience results in a lot of un-learning for him and makes the experience extremely enriching and interesting.
