"I have been taking online lessons in Hindustani Classical vocal music from Durga Nadkarni for more than a year. Even though I am in the United States, the quality of teaching over Skype has been exceptional. Durga ji has a deep understanding of the classical tradition. She teaches with great patience and dedication. Her lessons are both challenging and supportive, helping students explore each raga while developing their own style.I never thought I would be able to sing, but Durga ji instilled confidence in me. Her encouragement and instructions made all the difference, giving me the tips I needed to improve and guiding me every step of the way. She is always on time and flexible with scheduling, making the learning experience smooth and accommodating. What makes Durga ji special is how she customizes lessons for each student. She understands everyone’s strengths and areas that need improvement. Her guidance is always clear and encouraging. Durga ji’s love for music is inspiring, and she motivates her students to keep improving and enjoy the process. Whether you are just starting or have advanced skills, learning from Durga Nadkarni over Skype will help you grow in Hindustani Classical music. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn and appreciate this beautiful tradition."

"I have started taking singing lessons in Hindustani Classical Music from Durga ma'am from last month and all I can say it was the best decision ever! Her knowledge is so deep and profound that it makes the learning very easy and effective. She is also very balanced in her approach, she is friendly, diligent, understanding and kind. She prepares and sends the notes in advance, along with her voice sample, so it’s really easy to follow and actually sing along with her during the class. Another thing worth mentioning is how she has customised the classes entirely as per my interest, aptitude and is very flexible to change it every now and then, as per my needs. I am still amazed at how this happened online! What started as ‘let’s give this a shot’, might just become a permanent part of my life, and this would be because of her. Thank you ma’am. "
