I really enjoy my lessons with Dhara. She is very helpful, always upbeat, patient and positive. She is very good at assessing students abilities and goes out of her way to help them learn. Not only is she a gifted musician but also highly skilled at teaching. I highly recommend ICMSC! October 2024: A little update on my musical journey with ICMSC thus far. I have now been learning for almost 5 years, I am in Madhyama Purna. The results & growth I achieved thru lessons has made my long-time dream of attaining a Visharad in Indian Classical music finally seem like a reality! As an adult student I'm glad I found a teacher as patient, friendly & knowledgeable as Dhara.

Learning music from Dhara Maam at ICMSC for the past three years has been a truly privileged experience. Her embodiment of patience and kindness shines through in every lesson. She skillfully guides us through our mistakes, always willing to answer our questions with warmth and clarity. This creates an encouraging environment that fosters both growth and confidence in our musical abilities. Dhara Maam's passion for music is infectious, inspiring us to explore our creativity and push our boundaries.

A fantastic guru, always ready to teach with a smile. Dhara Mam, you rock!! We love learning from you and look forward for the next class. Thank you for everything. Blessed to learn and grow under your guidance ????

Oct 2024: Update on my ongoing music learning experience at ICMSC. Has been three years now and it continues to be an amazing, enriching, & enjoyable experience. Dhara ma’m is very motivating and goes the extra mile to make our learning process fun and effortless. ICMSC has now added Live Tabla for some sessions which adds immensely to our understanding. Dharaji is super talented and gifted teacher - a rare combination. She is very patient, encouraging and dedicated. Ruchirji and Vagmi do an excellent job of keeping everything organized and respond to student queries in a timely manner. I really look forward to music lessons and feel motivated to practice. Blessed to have found ICMSC. If I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would.

I’ve been learning classical music with Dhara for over 4 years now. It’s been an absolute delight learning with her. She is patient and kind with her students but more importantly enjoys teaching of music and that kind of positive energy is infectious. You want to be a better student… it’s all the motivation without the stress!! Thank you, Dhara.

My daughter loves this music class.” We signed up my daughter for vocal music lessons, and honestly, it’s been amazing. Her teacher is super patient and encouraging, and I’ve seen such a big difference in her confidence. She actually looks forward to class every week, which is saying a lot!

Super impressed with the quality. I’ve done both Hindustani and light music sessions here, and both were fantastic. The teachers are super knowledgeable but also make you feel totally at ease, no matter your level. I always leave class feeling motivated.

My son’s loving piano again! We were struggling to find a good piano class where my son actually enjoyed learning. But here, he connected with the teacher right away, and now he’s practicing without being asked! It’s been such a positive change.

Incredible teaching and such a supportive vibe! I recently joined Artium Academy for Bollywood singing classes, and I’m honestly blown away. The sessions are fun, structured, and the teacher makes sure you're really learning, not just singing along. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn seriously but still enjoy the process.

Didn't even feel like an online class! I was a bit skeptical at first — I wasn’t sure how effective online singing lessons would be. But Artium completely changed my mind. The sessions are so interactive, and the teacher gives real-time feedback just like you'd get in person. Honestly, it feels like I’m in a studio with them.

Like having a music teacher in your living room! Artium’s setup is just so good. My 10-year-old son takes beginner singing lessons, and it truly feels like his teacher is right there with him. The sound quality, the interaction, everything is smooth — it doesn’t feel remote at all. We’re super impressed.

My child is learning Piano at Artium and I've had an incredible experience! The instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and truly passionate about teaching. Before joining Artium, I wasn't sure how anyone could learn Piano online but I am happy to see how easy it is. The flexible online classes fit perfectly into my schedule, and the personalized approach has helped my daughter progress faster than I expected. I highly recommend Artium Academy to anyone looking to learn piano in a supportive and engaging environment!

I have joined Artium when it was still in the early stages. They have definitely evolved over time, with a more efficient dashboard and online platform to track lessons, learnings other session related details. They are very supportive with the learning process, and overtime I have been exposed to sources which have helped me grow as a singer.

A great platform to learn music. Very happy with the flexibility of classes and the quality of lessons

I really enjoy my lessons with Dhara. She is very helpful, always upbeat, patient and positive. She is very good at assessing students abilities and goes out of her way to help them learn. Not only is she a gifted musician but also highly skilled at teaching. I highly recommend ICMSC!

Dharaji is wonderful with the young kids! She is very patient and kind but also motivates them to learn and practice. We have been doing classes online and it has worked out very well with no technical issues. Also, it is very helpful to have audio recordings on Google classroom to practice from. Overall, the classes and curriculum are very well organized and teaching methods are very effective, even for the little ones.

My daughter enjoys her music lessons very much and she loves the way her teacher has a very positive learning environment

Dhara Bakshi is a great music teacher, and really makes you interested in what you are learning. Individually, she is an excellent singer, and is great at passing down her knowledge in a way that's systematic, efficient, and fun. I enjoy taking classes from her! If you want to learn, do so! Your life---both musically and generally----will be a lot richer because of it. I know mine is.

It’s been an absolute delight learning Classical Music with Dhara. She is patient and kind with her students but more importantly enjoys teaching of music and that kind of positive energy is infectious. You want to be a better student.

Both my daughter and I have recently joined ICMSC and our first impression about this school is nothing short of excellent. The management is very organized, the courses are well structured and communication is clear. Dhara ji is a super talented and patient teacher. She is very good with understanding the students' needs and capabilities to place them at the right spot for learning. Her great teaching style, supported with providing regular study materials, makes it an ideal place to learn music for both kids and grown ups. Highly recommend this institution.

Our family is fortunate to have my two sons (age 13 and 8) and I enrolled to ICMSC and learning from our teacher - Dhara Bakshi. With super organized notes, class discipline, a small teacher to student ratio, we feel very motivated and encouraged to learn and follow the highly focused curriculum. The recordings and detailed class material are super handy and helpful for whenever and wherever we like to practice singing. Feel lucky and blessed to be a part of this fast growing music school! Best wishes!

I feel I want to practice more and do better and better in each class and make her proud. Even though they have their hands full, running the school at full capacity, I feel, she is always there if I have any question or if I need any help understanding the material. I look forward to my class every week. She makes each session very valuable as well as fun. Thank you again Dhara for this very well organized school and giving us a great platform to pursue our passion.

Dhara is a wonderful, highly skilled and talented teacher that one can have. She is very patient and kids enjoy her class too. My son has been taking music lessons from her since last year and he eagerly waits for his music lessons every week, that shows how dedicated and warm she is! In this pandemic, even her virtual classes are with same enthusiasm and determination. Happy to have her as our music guru!

My 4 yr old is enjoying learning music from the best. Dhara is very patient and teaches with being calm and caring. I can be at ease and glad that my daughter is in safe hands and will excel in her singing.

Incredible Classical Music Teacher.He teaches on Skype but you would feel much much better than in person classes.His teaching quality and very high level of experience in teaching,you would get amazed.over all a master class of teaching.

Awesome learning. I have been talking classes from Guruji for the last two years and my growth in music has been exponential. Guruji’s practice material and patience to teach is amazing. What a huge difference he’s made in my singing. When I hear my recording from before and now I can’t believe the difference that has occurred. Thank you Guruji for your patience and help.

Great ustad ji…

thank you - still fabulous

Awesome!!!

I started learning music late in my career but lucky me I found my Guruji Pandit Vibhakar Pandey. He has an experience of 25 years in music. All of his Raga are so detailed. He is also flexible with his schedule and motivates you all the time throughout your music journey. I don't think I would have got a better teacher than him.????

Guruji is a great teacher that should definitely be looked at for help understanding the ragas. I find his method of teaching techniques involving vocal improvements is most effective. I will say it is important to learn the ragas and try to keep practicing it, because it will be difficult to reach in this class without personal effort. This class should be taken seriously and Guruji will really help you.

Pandit Vibhakar sir is one of the finest Music Guru,I have ever met in my whole life.I have been learning from 3.5 years from him,and the results are magical,awesome.I am very thankful to god that I met Vibhakar sir and started learning.

Vibhakar Guruji is one of the best teachers in Hindustani classical music. He himself belongs to the kirana gharana and Benares gharana. I love the fact that he os taught from one of my all time favorites, “Pt. Chandulal Mishra ji”. He is super flexible with timing and teaches various lessons in life in addition to the music. This has been a life changing experience for me.

I have been learning here from 6 months on skype because guruji teaches only on skype.withing 6 months only I am seeing great changes in my voice as well as in my musical knowledge.great great great teacher.strongly suggest everyone to start learning from guruji.thanks

I really like the course design of Swarkul's vocal classes

I am so happy with Swarkul.

My daughter joined Ms Nidhi’s class when she was 4. In the last year she has enjoyed attending the music class. I have heard her humming and singing the songs taught by Nidhi several times during the day sometimes even while falling asleep. We are so happy that Ms Nidhi is able to capture the attention of the kids and keep them interested in music.

Nidhi is an excellent teacher, very methodical and systematic so that you understand the nuances of classical Indian music as you learn. She has been wonderful over the last year that I’ve been learning from her and I feel I’ve come a long way since I started as a complete beginner.

We enrolled our 4 year old in Nidhi’s online music class and we are beyond satisfied with it. She has been instrumental in channeling our kid’s music interest by guiding her through private and group lessons. What we loved was her simplicity and efforts that eased our kid to learn hindi and alankars without being pressured. Highly recommend her!

Nidhi is an excellent teacher for Hindustani Classical music. Me and my 12 year old daughter started taking singing lessons from her about a year ago and we love her class. Both of us have learned a lot from her. She is very knowledgeable with a passion for music!

Nidhi is an extremely dedicated, passionate yet very humble music teacher and human being! I had a pleasure to introduce both my kiddos to Nidhi and her awesome musical expertise...super happy to make decision and start my kiddos musical journey with Nidhi??????????????

My daughter likes singing very much.She loved the music class from her first day. Archana is lovely and passionate in teaching music for kids. She makes kids enjoy the music while learning. I observed my daughter is learning best with Archana.I definitely recommend Veda school of carnatic music.

Great service! My daughter learns music here and she absolutely loves it!

I couldn't resist hearing of Nehal's CDs with full concentration at one sitting comparing it with others Sanskrit cassettes and CDs. The pronunciation of Nehal is perfect and without any mistakes.

When singing becomes the song of the soul prayers flows between the two.

A sweet voice is the God's gift, let Goddess of learning (Saraswati) sit on the tips of your tongue.

Hi all, Pandit vibhakar guru ji is amazing teacher, he made my daughter a superb vocalist. Thanks guru ji

I have been learning over here from 14 months, and today I am writing my review. Guruji is an ocean of music Join here and learn at least for 12 months, and after 12 months you would also start saying the above sentence, Guruji is an ocean of music I am a performing artist and i was willing to learn indian classical music from a highly experienced teacher. I got in touch with many teachers,some of them were ready to teach in very very less amount and some teachers were very costly, I fried alot to learn from them but all of them could not give me satisfaction from their musical knowledge. Then i contacted Pandit Vibhakar , Oh my Gosh , He is a magician, I immediately realized that whatever I have learnt in my whole life, Pandit ji explained it in one lesson only. I would strongly suggest all people to join here and if you want to satisfy your passion, your dedication then there would not be any other better place than here. Come here and enjoy your musical life. All the best

I am writing this review after attending 3 months classes under Guru ji guidance, I was searching for a very good teacher for the perfection in singing ,I talked to many institutions like sargam music ,go4guru and some more top levels institutions but I have found there only business nothing else. All of them have hired some beginners teachers who are still learning from 2-3 years and they are trying to teach new students.lol What do they teach if they are still learning in the beginning levels? When I talked to Guru ji (Pandit vibhakar) then in the beginning I thought that he would also be like others,but here I was wrong , Luckily I found the best Guruji of my musical career, Guruji is an ocean ,he has complete knowledge of music,he is the master of masters , I would suggest every student to come to Guruji if they are trying to learn better than the best in music. Thanks

Nidhi has vast musical experience. She is a wonderful musician and is an excellent teacher.Nidhi makes our music lessons fun and challenging. She is very sweet, kind, friendly and patient. She always walks me through music theory, as well as the details of the scale and taal. She has excellent skill and enthusiasm, making me look forward to our classes I really enjoy our classes. Thanks for the great lessons and I look forward to many more! I highly recommend Nidhi's Jersey Tarana.

I wanted to write a small note about the summer camp program that I enrolled my daughter Meher into this year. She goes to this place called Jersey Tarana (jerseytarana.com) organized by Nidhi Kumar. She has learnt soooo much in the last couple of weeks about India, our heritage, writing & speaking hindi, dancing on bollywood numbers, learning and singing all the patriotic songs, arts & crafts (including the rakhi she hand made for her brother) and soooo much more. I couldn’t have found a better place for her. So if anyone is still looking for a place for the next couple of weeks (classes go on until end of August I believe) or for next summer then I highly recommend jerseytarana.com.

My 3.5 yr old attended Nidhi’s hindi classes as well as summer camp. It was very hard to teach her hindi as she was a late talker and been brought by a gujrati nanny. After few weeks in Nidhi’s summer camp, she loves singing hindi songs and dancing. She even wants me to sing hindi songs to her now. Besides helping the child build up these skills, I would highly commend Nidhi’s sweet nature. She is always so nice not only with kids but with parents too. It is always a delight to talk to her. We are very happy to be a part of Jersey tarana family

Thanks to Nidhi's summer camp, my son has been able to spend a wonderful summer. He made lotta friends, kindled his interest in learning hindi and our culture through heritage classes. Heart felt thanks to her vocal trainig. Thanks to Shivangi,the art teacher,who created wonders with the little hands. Thanks to Shehnaz who transformed the little ones to wonderful dancers.On the whole, I'm a happy and proud mom and I'm looking forward for her upcoming programs for kids.

My husband and I do not have enough words to express our thanks to Nidhi for fine tuning our 7years old daughter’s interest in music. Nidhi has been teaching my daughter for over 2 years now, it started with Hindi classes. I was amazed that within a few months my daughter was able to write and read quite a bit. And now she learns Hindustani music and is very excited to show up at every music class. She is now very excited and looking forward to Nidhi Aunty’s summer classes!!

The best thing about Nidhi, apart from her great voice and talent as a singer, is that she is a great teacher and a very sensible and down to earth person. She is very sweet natured and patient, always striving to bring out the best in her students. My daughter absolutely loves Nidhi Aunty and looks forward to her lessons. Not only that, she comes home and practices without being told. Nidhi's enthusiasm in boosting kids confidence through shows and recitals (a very important aspect) is commendable. Not all women with a 6 month old baby can organize large scale events. This shows pure commitment on Jersey Tarana's part. I am very glad to have found Nidhi and recommend her to everyone!!

Dear Nidhi, today program is a super hit. you have really really worked hard with the kids. i am amazed to see mahima's performance. thanks a ton to you. jaspreet

Nidhi is an excellent music teacher! She strikes a good balance between Indian Classical and bollywood semi classical keeping the students engaged. I have been taking classes from her for almost 2 years now and would highly recommend her!

Just wanted to tell you that Tiya is doing really well in Hindi/Singing. All credit goes to you. She is completely at par with other students in her class, in Hindi/Singing Even the teacher is surprised that how come she is doing good in Hindi, when she did not have it as a subject, all these years. Just wanted to say THANK YOU !!!

Rocking Performance You rocked as a performer and the best thing that impresses me is you customize the song selection based on the mood of audience and their demand. Your down to earth nature reflects in your style of singing as well. We had a great time

Thank You For Making Our Diwali Celebration So Memorable Thank you so much for your melodious singing. All of us had a wonderful time celebrating Diwali celebration for our community. Definitely is looking forward to listen to you more often in events. . Thank you for singing Garba in the middle of performance, all of us had great time

Impressiev Presentation Along With Melodious singing Very professional singing and presentation. You have a great team and together you guys had wonderful performance for garba night at Hindu community center. Everyone loved your singing and team’s performances

I met Nidhi at a friend’s house where she sang some beautiful songs. I found her very friendly and charming and what a sweet and melodious voice she had! The committee members of Bihar & Jharkhand Association of North America(BJANA), invited her to perform for one of their events this summer. She sang wonderfully.

Outstanding performance with wide range of singing. You sang oldies as well as new songs with ease and that shows your range as a singer. Your performance had made our event look even more memorable and lots of positive feedback from audience. Thanks again

Nidhi is a great vocalist and musician. I have been taking classical singing lessons for more than a year and really enjoy every lesson. Best part is that she is quite nimble in terms of her teaching style for all ages of aspiring singers. She keep student/s engaged throughout the process. It was my life long dream to become a good singer and she has provided great coaching to improve my vocals as well as my confidence in singing. Highly recommend her to upcoming singers.

Nidhi is an excellent singer and a mentor. I started her classes 6 months back and I am so much enjoying her classes. She had made me fall in love with music all over again. Nidhi’s passion and love for music is so inspiring! I strongly recommend her.

Nidhi is an excellent singer and a great tutor. I started my lessons with her about 2 months back and i am enjoying her class to the core. Nidhi is very patient when it comes to teaching and calmly explains you the intricacies of classical singing. Without her guidance I would have never understand Hindi classical music so deeply. Highly recommend her classes to anyone and for any age group

We are taking Hindustani classical lessons with Nidhi for almost a year now. She is a passionate and knowledgeable teacher who is very encouraging to her students. To keep it interesting she keeps a good mix of classical and non-classical songs while also guiding on the technique. Happy to be part of this music family!

I joined Nidhi maam's class in 2019 about 1.5 years ago and have learnt so many new things from her, sang with her in the last garba function and have built a new community of friendship and fellow musicians. Currently the classes happen on zoom and I opted for the private lessons where she can really work on what my voice and training specifically needs. Its always a positive experience learning from her and Talking to her about various things. I highly recommend Nidhi ma'am if you are a beginner

Great improvement in vocals within a year.Pure training of hindustani classical music!

After learning for 8 months from GURUJI, I am writing this ...

SIMPLY GREAT TEACHER, PERFECT KNOWLEDGE AND GREAT EXPERIENCE.. IN SIMPLE WORDS.. JUST AWESOME TEACHER.. WOW...

Incredible, Superb, Awesome... Fantastic GURUJI FOR MUSIC...

I am blessed that's why I joined here.. Magical music teacher... Really Great...

I have tried learning Hindustani Classical several times over the years - only to disengage after a couple of months. There were many reasons - time conflicts of course the biggest reason like everyone. But one of the main reason was also frustration at my own progress. I have been training with Nidhi for about 8 months now - the longest with anyone without getting frustrated at myself for not making progress. Somehow, Nidhi has been able to intuit these phases where my motivation level falls down and help me come out of it. I can't emphasize enough how important it is for a teacher to keep their students interested, and Nidhi would score 10/10 on this measure. I am naturally pretty good at light singing, and that is NOT a plus when attempting a transition to classical. First, the voice modulations that Bollywood singing is full of are immediately at odds with the precision and discipline required by classical music, especially at early stages. It's a hard problem to correct because one has to UNLEARN what is naturally there, and start all over from A, B,C.... I am thankful to Nidhi for helping me understand the problem and realizing how important it is to correct the process right at the start. Nidhi is able to help me because she is exceptional at calibrating various students of hers and then creating individualized training plans. In addition, the little words of practical wisdom she provides while working with her students make a huge difference in learning.

I really work hard and travelled TO many musical institutes to learn classical music but I have never gotten satisfied , BUT, WHEN I JOINED HERE, YES, I GOT MY PLACE, THE BEST TECHNIQUES TO MAKE NEW STUDENTS UNDERSTAND ABOUT CLASSICAL MUSIC, VERY FRIENDLY BEHAVIOR, AWESOME AND GREAT GREAT & GREAT GURU JI ... FRIENDS,IF YOU WISH TO LEARN CLASSICAL MUSIC AND WANT TO BECOME A PERFECT VOCALIST , I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU TO JOIN HERE.. Please ,do not be confused and waste your time to search other institutes LIKE ME, LIKE I DID BEFORE.. JUST COME HERE AND START YOUR PERFECT JOURNEY WITH THE BLESSINGS OF GREAT GURU JI .. ALL THE VERY BEST...

I feel fortunate to have Nidhi as our teacher. My both kids and I started taking online lessons with her since last 3 months and we love the class time. Nidhi pays proper attention to all in the class. She is very wry flexible and patient with kids. I will highly recommend her classes.

Very Happy with Nidhi's classes. My daughter is learning from her more than 1 year. In addition to hindusthani classical she is also learning some melodious hindi songs .Nidhi is very friendly with kids and very nice teacher .

I started attending Nidhi ji's classes 1.5 years ago and that was one of the best decisions I've taken as an adult. Attending these classes is like going to a happy place for me, and I look forward to them each week. Nidhi ji creates a fun and friendly environment and has a very positive way of encouraging growth and learning in her students. My friends and family repeatedly tell me that my singing has improved since I started taking lessons. Hindustani Classical Music is a very complex and nuanced art, so it is extremely important to have a knowledgeable and skilled teacher. I'm so glad I found such a teacher in Nidhi ji. :)

Nidhi teaches the ABC of singing with a balance of theory, classical vocal singing and Bollywood songs. He is very sweet, patient and has a structured method of teaching people of all age groups. She will provide you with opportunities for live singing, professional recording or preparing for your own singing event. She will also prepare you for taking the Hindustani classical singing exam.

My daughter has been learning music from Nidhi for over 2 + yrs. Nidhi is extremely patient and takes her time with every kid. My daughter never enjoyed classical music but now eagerly looks forward to her classes and her singing has improved a lot. All thanks to Nidhi. I would highly recommend Nidhi.

Experienced music teacher. My daughter love the class. Free demo done and started classes. My friend in California referred Go4Guru online classes. Her son taking Math and Hindi classes

Friendly and experienced teachers! Low cost compare to any other music schools in USA. My daughter taking online carnatic music classes for past 5 years. No class cancellation and class scheduling is flexible is this company plus. Thank you Padma Mam for the wonderful online carnatic music classes. Now, my 2nd daughter started online Hindustani music classes with Ragavendra Sir

I've been taking lessons for over a year now and I see a huge improvement in my voice. Nidhiji is an excellent teacher and takes a special interest in her students success

My daughter started going to Nidhi’s Hindustani classical classes in June and she loves it. With every passing month I am seeing her grow in skill and confidence. I highly recommend her class.

Nidhi is a very good singer and she teaches Hindustani Classical Music. I highly recommend her.

It's been few months since I joined Nidhi ji's singing class. Not only is she a great teacher but also a very positive person. She is always smiling and encouraging her students. She gives her students ample opportunities to perform at events. I really enjoy the classical training offered by her. She pays attention to each and every student in the class and makes sure we understand the class well. Her approach to teaching is a very good mix of modern and traditional. The class really makes me detach myself from other worldly matters and overall is a very refreshing experience.

Nidhi is a great teacher who not only focuses on teaching but also make it fun for kids with a balance of classical and Bollywood songs. I highly recommend for young kids. This is a great way for them to connect and learn about their culture through music. Nidhi loves teaching kids and it shows. She goes the extra mile in creating opportunities and events where kids can showcase their talent. This is more than just a class. It helps your kids be well rounded and confident individuals who will be so proud of their rich heritage when they grow up!

When I had considered taking beginners Hindustani music lessons about a year ago as an adult, I had no idea what to expect. I am very glad I took the leap of faith and started taking lessons from Nidhi. Nidhi has been an amazing teacher with abundance of knowledge, patience, and above all, love and passion for music as well as her students. She truly wants her students to succeed and learn music well so she goes above and beyond to facilitate make up classes, give timely feedback with a smile, organize events so we can perform, promotes students to do YouTube videos, has structured exams planned, and so on. I highly recommend taking lessons with Nidhi if you are considering taking Hindustani music lessons! You will not be disappointed! :) -Aanchal

Nidhi is very passionate about music and it shows in her teaching. She is very knowledgeable about classical music theory as well as resourceful and hands on. I recommend Nidhi

Nidhi is a great teacher of Hindustani music, for adults and kids alike. She handles her students with extreme patience and diligence and helps them build on their strengths and work on their weakness. Her focus is to not only make you stronger technically but also to improve your live performance skills, often glossed over by many teachers. She is quick to adapt her teaching style based on your weakness and what you are looking for. I would highly recommend her for singing lessons no matter what your age is, as long as you are passionate.

Nidhi is a very knowledgeable and dedicated teacher. It is a pleasure to learn from her. I would highly recomend her classes for ker D's and adults whobwant to learn this form of art.

Nidhi has been an exceptional teacher for my daughter,Samika. She not only has a great classical curriculum but also knows how to teach a child in an interesting way. The advantage of learning here is to not only gain classical music knowledge but also perform at various events which really boosted my daughter's confidence. Thank you Jersey Tarana for bringing Music to our family!

My son has been learning music from Nidhi for nearly 3 years now and I couldn't have found a better teacher than Nidhi to fuel his passion for my music. He(now 7 yrs old) has learnt many raags and songs. He enjoys every class and looks forward to it. This the biggest testament for the music school. Nidhi, an awesome singer, is an excellent teacher as well; she not only knows how to handle kids so as to ensure maximum learning but also assesses each kid to extract their strength and use it to make them do better. She is a very honest teacher, focusing solely on teaching the kids, even if sometimes the class needs to run overtime. She also provides numerous opportunities for kids to perform, giving them various platforms to showcase their talent. She teaches all types of songs like folk/devotional/classical/movie songs, to the kids, so they have great mix of learning. Additionally, she also teaches playing the keyboard. One unique thing about her teaching, she also teaches the kids, the history/culture behind each raag Nidhis Jersey tarana, with a passionate and outstanding teacher, is a great value add and 'the place' for those who want to learn music. Thank you Nidhi for adding music to our lives !!!
