SOME STUDENT EXPERIENCES WITH SKYPE LESSONS
As a student who usually sees Ustadji in person whenever he is in town, I didn’t think I’d even need skype lessons, much less have the opportunity to try them. But then, I happened to be in India for two months, during which time Ustadji was in the US! I set up a skype lesson, and even with a lousy 2g connection to the internet, I was able to have a great lesson! I highly recommend skype lessons – besides the fact that they mean quality, one-on-one instruction with one of the greatest living sitar players, they are a great way to stay connected so the student’s progress and growth are maintained. It’s definitely the next best thing to being in front of ustadji in person! Try it, you’ll never regret it!

During skype lessons with Ustadji I forget that I’m in a different country. He is just as observant and inspiring a teacher online as he is in person. I end up with an ocean of material and a heart full of inspiration within a session that passes by in the blink of an eye. Skype lessons are an important part of my learning experience with Ustadji because I get to learn from him more often regardless of where I am in the world!
