What the participants say...!

I wish to thank you for the wonderful Spoken Sanskrit course. I liked the structure and content of the course very much. The teacher also conducted the course in a brilliant manner. I have been associated with foreign language studies since the early-mid 1980s. I often was unhappy with the Indian language teaching for non-native students (be it day-to-day languages or Sanskrit). I find your efforts commendable, and wish to thank you for that.

- Shrirang Mirajkar, from September 2023 Batch
Spoken Sanskrit classes are excellent. The teacher presents the various structures of the language and gives every one an opportunity to reply. I do enjoy the class. I must congratulate you on your excellent faculty. They all seem experts and knowledgeable. I wish more could benefit.

The Practice exercises, where each of us got a chance to speak in rotation. Being able to implement and speak in small Sanskrit sentences was very motivating!
