The teacher information will be provided during the time of enrollment. However, if a teacher is absent due to some unavoidable situation then a substitute teacher will be assigned to the students. We make sure that the students do not miss any class.
We usually have one teacher for the course but if the instructor is absent due to some unavoidable situation then a substitute teacher will be assigned to the students. We make sure that the students do not miss any class. If you're starting the next level, it can be that the same teacher may be assigned but there are chances of another teacher as well. You don’t have to worry though. All our teachers are trained to deliver the best learning experience to the students.
Yes, we can help students to pick out appropriate selections for all their competitions, shows, and auditions. We would like our students to achieve their performing goals.
NO, we offer PTMs every month so you can directly speak to your child’s instructor at that time.
At Music Pandit School, we currently offer western vocal classes, choir, guitar, keyboard, and ukulele classes. We have plans to introduce othercourses such as Hindustani and Carnatic singing in the upcoming months. We are also looking to bring in other instruments for interested students.
A student can enrol for multiple courses if time permits. The only thing you (the parent) need to do is to plan your child’s schedule properly. You can discuss this further with the Music Pandit team to see what the available options are.
No, since the learning happens in a group setting, we advise students to attend the classes on a regular basis and as per their course schedule. Since Music Pandit follows a school-like setup.
If your child has no prior experience in learning music then it is always good to start with the fundamental course where students will learn all the basics of music and the theory. The fact is that it will depend on your/child's interest as well as what you want to learn or pick up.
Without your/child’s interest, there is no point in learning music be it singing or playing an instrument. Of course, learning to sing is much easier than learning instruments but it depends on you/your child - how much work and effort you are willing to put in.
Yes, students will be provided with several types of study materials. These will include audio and video materials as well as written materials in the form of PDFs. These can be used for offline learning by the students. These will be accessible from their dashboard inside the course folder.
Students will have access to the course study materials for the duration of their course. For example, students from the fundamental level will have access for two months. Similarly, students from the Debut level will have access for four months.
No, students will not have access to the previous course materials. They cannot download the course materials. It will all be available on the platform.
Students will be provided with course completion certificates from Music Pandit. For Trinity and Rockschool certifications they will have to attend separate graded exams. After successful completion, they will receive certificates from these institutes.
When it comes to designing our curriculum, our main focus is not to burden the children with lots of music theory. Having taught hundreds of children, our fine-tuned approach is to make learning fun and interesting for the kids. The curriculum is designed in such a way that it not only helps students grasp the music fundamentals but they will apply what they have learned to actually play songs and do more.
Yes, we conduct workshops once every month for the students. Workshops will be based on specific music categories and themes conducted by popular artists or professionals.
This is an added bonus to students along with their regular studies. Recitals will be held at the end of the course wherein students will get the opportunity to showcase their talent.
Well, music theory to some point helps anyone build a strong foundation in playing as well as composing music. Be it any instrument, musicians should know at least the basics of music theory. Additionally, knowing the theory will help children get out of the intermediate level and they can, later on, use their knowledge to teach music to others.
After enrolment, students will be registered (with the email ids) on our online learning platform and we will provide their log-in details. Their login ids will remain the same for the entire duration of the course. However, the password can be changed once they receive the details.
After successful registration, we also conduct orientation session for both parents and students to help them get familiar with our learning management system.

At Music Pandit, we conduct classes for a maximum of 5 students in one class. Why do we prefer group learning over 1:1 learning? It is because of the following reasons.
Music Pandit teaches music online via an interactive learning platform called Moodle wherein zoom is integrated into the platform. No need for separate log-ins or sign-ups. The link to access the platform will be shared via mail after the successful registration of the students. The classes are conducted in a group setting with a maximum number of 5 students. We take two classes per week.
