I like to put an equal emphasis on sight reading as well as playing. Since I have knowledge in Indian classical music, I can teach and explain notations through sargam ( sa, re, ga..) and staff notations ( G, A, B...). I also like to include different visual media in my lessons, so as to emphasise on playing technique.
I would like to mention that I do not teach individuals older than 25 years of age. Currently, I am accepting only online classes.
I have been playing the violin since the past 11 years. I have learnt some Indian classical music and have basic knowledge in it. I am currently interested in western classical music and am learning myself. I am qualified to teach anyone from and between beginner level to grade 4 (western classical violin).

Perfect! Extremely patient while she teaches, listens well and suggests really accurate tips which would help us to improve our skills. Professional with her work, yet super friendly with her attitude. I will definitely keep coming back for her classes because I am confident that I can become better at Violin with her help :D
Gauri's method of teaching is quite refreshing. She comes up with creative ways to keep the lessons engaging and fun. She is also very patient and kept me motivated throughout our course.
I have learnt some concepts in Psychology from Gauri and it was really easy to understand. She was also able to give alternative explanations for topics I didn't understand.
She is very engaging and explains really nicely
I think Gauri ma'am is a great teacher. She taught me Psychology and English to my brother. She is very helpful and explains everything really well.
