Do you teach Sanskrit online to learners in New York?

Yes. All classes are live and online, so a learner in New York joins from home on a laptop or tablet. There is no travel and no need for local classrooms.

Which language are the classes taught in?

We explain in English or Hindi, whichever the learner prefers. The Sanskrit itself is taught in Devanagari, with transliteration to help at first.

How do I start?

Send an enquiry or message us on WhatsApp with the learner's age, level and goal. We will suggest a course and arrange a free counselling session at a time that suits New York.

Can a New York learner take a class before school?

Yes. A short early-morning class before school or work falls in the Indian late afternoon, which works for the teacher. We agree the exact time with you.
