"I have been learning veena online from Sujatha mami for more than 6 months and it has been a wonderful learning experience. She is a very patient teacher and encourages you to develop your own style of playing by demonstrating multiple ways of playing Veena to achieve the same sound effect. I would definitely recommend online lessons from mami for anyone who has a basic knowledge of how to play a Veena and in person classes for absolute beginners. "

"I checked out her demo lesson and got hooked. She has been very regular (even when I had to miss class on my engagements, she figured out a slot in her busy schedule to make up that class). Her lessons are very interactive, I don't feel like I am doing it remotely. And most important of all, she is an excellent and patient teacher. "

"My husband and I study with Ma'am. And wish our kids in the future study under her. She is so amazing I wish she lives 120 years. We rarely find such prideless teachers. She is so attentive and so expert in Karnatic vocals that will notice a slight mistake and won't allow to skip it not correcting it. Not only that, she is very friendly and doesn't laugh at a student if student does silly mistakes on the contrary inspires me saying that song is actually difficult that many people do mistake here. When we are sick she is adjustable with timings. We are from the USA and find her as the best teacher in the world. Thank you so much. "

"Sujatha ma'am makes learning to play the veena an enjoyable experience by being patient yet inspiring perfection in both swara and sahitya. From her methodological teaching of veena instrument, I understood the importance of playing such that the song is heard rather than just swaras. She has extensive knowledge about gamakas used in veena and stresses on what is to be used and where to bring out the flavour of a raaga, an invaluable knowledge in Carnatic Music. She gives individual attention so that my mistakes are promptly corrected, difficulties explained and lesson plan tailored to what I as a student need to learn next. Sujatha ma'am is an excellent teacher and I am very happy to have found her on Urbanpro. "

"I am learning Veena from her and I really enjoy the classes. The way things are explained and taught are extraordinary. A good teacher is someone who never fails to make others understand. I am glad that I met someone like that. Learning is always a two-way process (an effort from both- teacher and student). In that way my teacher is doing her part really well. "

The amount of dedication and patience she has shown to each one of us as beginners has been remarkable. She carries a very enthusiastic and warm personality that has assured comfort and inspires everyone to become more serious in learning this art form. I have been blessed to be trained under such a kind Guru. "

"I had a passion for learning Veena since childhood and now I was indeed very fortunate to learn it from a very talented renowned guru Ms Sujatha. She is a very experienced, patient and enthusiastic teacher whose classes are fun, engaging and effective. I can't thank her enough for the encouragement and wonderful time we spent learning. "

"She's by far the best teacher I've been able to find. She's doesn't have a business-minded mentality. Rather she is interested in teaching and improving the student's ability. She gives nice feedback and lots of appreciation which encourages and interests me in the subject. She's very flexible and is a very talented person. She goes beyond what a teacher would do to help the students. "
