Every class at Sanskritam Academy is taught by a Sanskrit educator who holds a Shastri degree — the traditional university qualification in Sanskrit studies.
The teacher's training covers the Sanskrit language, its grammar and literature, and Jain philosophy and scriptures, together with long practice in the correct recitation of Shlokas. This combination allows school students, adult beginners and learners of scripture to be taught by the same careful method.

Teaching philosophy
Understand before you memorise
Every word is split, explained and connected to what the learner already knows. Tables and verses are learnt after they make sense, not before.
Say it aloud
Sanskrit is a spoken tradition. Reading and reciting aloud in every class trains the ear and makes grammar feel natural.
Explain in the learner's language
Explanations are given in Hindi or English, whichever the learner is more comfortable with, moving towards Sanskrit as confidence grows.
Respect for the text
Shlokas and scriptures are taught with their source, word meanings and context, without adding claims the text does not make.
