"Sir is a very good teacher. I joined my guitar classes recently and I leaned many things. Whenever I face any problems sir always help me. "
Aayush Saha
"An extremely great teacher who didn't just taught me in the best way I could but also helped me to know the entire world about the guitar. I can firmly say that if you're looking for a well mannered, disciplined, frank, knowdgeable teacher, you can take a look at this teacher's class.. I have done only 10 to 12 classes but he gave me knowledge of about minimum 50 classes. He is not the one who teaches for his income, but the one who can make you able to earn. "
Akash Srimani

"He may be a good guitarist but I had very bitter experience. Joined his class on 6th Aug 2021, for 8 classes a month,did 6 classes & then he requested for the next payment. Did that too but for 4 classes a month (as he was very irregular) which he has not updated on urbanpro. He is very irregular with his classes and very irresponsible. Today its 28th Jan 2022 and he has done 11 classes in all. Always cancels the class at the last moment. Never attend calls. He always have a reason not to take the class either he’s outside, stuck in traffic or busy somewhere. In some classes he had other students too in spite of me signing up for solo classes. He took a security deposit & promised to take a month’s free classes when i wish to leave. Inspite of informing him a month back he has not taken any classes. Not even completed the req no. of classes. I’ve requested him to return the security deposit but he says that he will complete the classes, which is not done till date. It's waste of time & money. He promises to give pieces to practice but that never comes. And if I could master tunes from pieces why would i have hired a teacher? Google & Youtube gives adequate material and for free. Utterly a very bitter experience. He is very unprofessional as a teacher. "
Reply by Sankar
Your previous lessons are not completely done ,you have not shown me the pieces correctly I have shown it you and from your side class got also delayed, maam you have only 3 classes left which I have told I will complete it. Sometimes you love the lessons and you have told me that you can do the piece and show it me I also told you that you have many tecnical pieces left which we have to workout . Ok I will sure return the money.

Acoustic guitar, within 5 to 7 k is appropriate, go for the side cut guitar rather than Dregnought guitar, you can buy local made guitars like givson(Kolkata) ,gioson, yemaha(ichapur),
Or you can buy imported and china and indonesia made guitars like
Yamaha f310, ibanez, cort, fender,
But dont buy cheap guitars like juarez
