It has been a fantastic experience. Sir teaches very well making sure students learn the contents in a simple and gradual manner. Highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning Sanskrit from ground zero. -> Satish Rao

I have always wanted to learn samskrutam. Thanks a lot for these excellent lectures and making it possible for me to learn! One thing I noticed about samskrutam, even though the west has classified it under Indo-european language family and distinct from dravidian Kannada (my mother tongue), they are extremely similar in terms of grammar. I’m very inclined to believe Kannada isn’t seperate “dravidian” but a direct descendant of Sanskrit, making it much easier for me to grasp. Once again, धन्यवादः महोदय 🙏 -> Amogh R Gowda

The instructor has focussed on building a confident foundation of how our approach should be taking this course.I liked it -> Madhu Pg
