THIS IS GREAT! So succinct, but lots of exercises to reinforce. One of the best courses on any subject I've taken

Dhnyavādaḥ Gurave!
I bought this course in 2019, and this is my third attempt to re-learn the course again and still find it very helpful.
I have started in 2019 knowing nothing about Sanskrit to now able to chant a quite long Buddha mantra.
Though I haven't yet sent anything to the teacher to comment on my chanting, I think I will one do it day.
Also, this is the first time I write a review to an intructor to formerly express my gratitute for his teaching.
Btw, I have also bought another course "Sanskrit Pronunciation for ISKCON".
I sincerely looking forward to your next course, you are such a wonderful teacher!
Thank you!

So far the class is awesome! the pronunciation is clear and the class moves at a good pace. My intention is to apply what I learn to recite mantras correctly.

This course is excellent and very complete. My native language is Spanish and my level of English is pre-intermediate. The course is automatically subtitled in English, which allowed me to understand the explanations. If I did not understand any explanation, I selected it and pasted it into the Google translator and there I got the translation I was looking for. The course is very complete and what I liked the most is that the teacher is very didactic, he progressively leads you and you learn without difficulty. many spelling and pronunciation examples. A lot of additional material such as PDFs and links to web pages. You can send your recordings by Wassapp and the teacher responds and corrects as appropriate. I recommend this course, it is worth the price it has.

This is an excellent course for someone whose native language isn’t an Indic language. I appreciate the breaking down of pronunciations very much.

This is a great course! I was inspired by the teacher to go through the whole course, and not drop out half way through. Nityananda responded to all my questions super quick, like lightening. His answers were comprehensive and included information that went beyond my questions. My friends appreciate my polished sanskrit skills. Of course, I'm not perfect. I plan to take the course again, this time in the devanagari version (also included in the course).

I am really enjoying it. Excellent slow pronunciations with choice to slow down more (50% or 75%). And close up mouth pictures. Please do many more!

The instructions are very clear. The only thing is that the two examples (kāraṇa and karaṇa) have similar meanings. By looking up both terms in Monier-Williams, I saw that the word "instrument" appear in both entries, as well as some forms of reason, reasoning, etc. Now, I am confused about what is what.

I like it so far. Although I am familiar with much of what is being taught, still I find the presentation interesting and exceptionally clear. It kept me enthusiastic and it was engaging. I find the voice and presentation of the teacher pleasing and easy to absorb.
