Classes with Atri ma’am are sooooo good!

I’ve been learning Hindustani Classical music (vocals) from Atriji for over a year now. I look forward to the classes on a regular basis because it is some of the best time I spend during the week. Starting out with the classes was super easy (thanks to ipassio coordinators) and after that I scheduled classes with Atriji, wherein she has been super flexible. Apart from the easy setup, in the beginning Atriji asks what prompted you to start the classes and tailors the following sessions based on that - for example, I started learning classical because I knew that if I was able to get a good grip on it, light music would turn easy. She tailored all the following sessions to teach me parts of classical music keeping in mind that I also want to do light music.

The level of skill (musical and teaching) that she has is nothing short of inspiring. She taught me in great detail the riyaz, the techniques/exercises & provided guidance on what I should do for how long during the practice sessions. She also breaks down the parts where I’m not good when singing a song, explains how to get those particular parts right and promptly sends recordings that help with practice of that part of the song/exercise. In the beginning she’d to send a lot more recordings (of almost the whole song/exercise) but just by learning from her, dare I say that, those recordings are not as long now in general. She also shares her honest feedback when I ask for it which I find very helpful to be in touch with where I’m. Any improvement that I’ve seen in my music is thanks to God & Atriji and I hope to keep inching towards excellence by continuing to learn from her. It’s truly been a blessing and an honor to have gotten a chance to learn from such a Guru. Thanks Ipassio and Atriji!

Learning Hindustani classical music from Atri Ma'am

It's been almost two months since I have started learning Hindustani classical music from Atri Ma'am. I am elated to have resumed my music lessons which I had discontinued a couple of years ago. Learning from Atri Ma'am has been a delightful experience so far - she ensures that there is clarity in understanding at each stage of learning and is also flexible and accommodating when it comes to scheduling the classes based on my work schedule. The support from ippassio team is also commendable - thanks to Anuj and team for ensuring a seamless user experience.

Great Musical Learning experience with Atri Kotal (via ipassio)

I have been learning from Atri Kotal for the past few weeks and the experience has been very good. Combined with the fact that I am learning to sing as a hobby and being a busy professional, I wanted to find someone who can work with me and take me through the experience effectively.

I am pleased that Atri has the right approach and attitude to keep me enthusiastically motivated despite my difficulties of being disciplined. I highly recommend her for vocal lessons.

Kudos to the iPassio team and the platform. It is smooth and very functional.

Very satisfied..

I am very satisfied with my Ipassio Hindustani Classical Music teacher Ms. Atri Kotal. So far I took six lessons from her. She does everything possible so that my voice and my skills are improved. Even taking out of class time, she sends me notations, exercises and the tunes recorded in her own voice. I already learned classical music in two different ragas. Now she’s working with me with a very sweet Meera Bhajan. When I am learning something I like to be very sure that it is really effective learning for me. Atri ji understands that completely and she works with me always. She understands where I am doing well and where I need improvements and she doesn’t give up until I have learnt the lessons very well. I wanted to be very good in every field of Indian vocal music since I was a child. Atri ji knows about that and she will be with me all the way to help me attain my goal. She knows her music very well and she always answers all my questions to my complete satisfaction. So I am very comfortable in giving her a five star review and I will recommend her to any other student of Hindustani classical music with absolutely no hesitation. I will continue to learn from Atri ji and I am confident that with her as my teacher, I will excel gradually and will very soon, be able to perform and render a high level of quality Indian music.
