Sanskrit for Children with Special Needs

One-to-one sessions at the child's own pace, planned together with parents.

Recitation, rhythm and repetition are at the heart of how Sanskrit has always been taught, and many children respond warmly to them. For children with special needs we teach one-to-one, in short sessions, and plan every step with the parents, who know their child best.

How we approach these classes

  • One-to-one sessions only, kept short and adjusted to the child's attention and energy on the day
  • A parent or caregiver is present, and helps us understand what works for the child
  • Listening and repeating first: sounds, short Shlokas and simple words, with no pressure to read or write
  • A first conversation with parents before any class, and an honest answer about whether we can help

Questions we are often asked

Is your teacher a trained special educator?

Our teacher is a qualified Sanskrit teacher, not a special educator or therapist. These sessions are Sanskrit classes taught patiently and one-to-one; they are not therapy and do not replace it. Please tell us about your child's needs, and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit.

How do we begin?

With a conversation between the parents and the teacher about the child's interests, what helps them learn and what to avoid. A short trial session follows, and you decide from there.

Tell us about the learner

We will suggest a starting point and arrange a free counselling session.

Who is the learner?

For learners under 18, a parent or guardian should make the enquiry. We do not ask for the child's name or contact details at this stage.
