Namaste! :)
Ma tapaiko guru Dikshant. I love seeing the world ๐, experiencing new cultures ๐ and bringing my own Nepali language and culture to new people ๐ณ๐ต
Me as a Teacher
When I moved to Germany, I was scared of the complexity of the language at first. But I was fortunate to find a teacher whose classes were extremely fun sessions that I always looked forward to.
With each complicated grammar rule, she added a story of it's origin. I learned not just how to speak the language, but why it is spoken in this way, how it has evolved with time and culture, and how we can enjoy it.
Taking inspiration from my dear teacher, I'll try to teach you not to just speak the language, but also to live in it and love it.

My first trial lesson today with Dikshant and he was amazing. He speaks really good English and so the discussion and conversation between us is good. I like toggling and sharing my insights too and he was open to that. While he had a lesson plan - he was navigating and flexing based on my level of understanding. And even at this trial - he gave me homework too. Shows that he is very generous and really have the learner/studentโs success to learn in mind. I plan to proceed with the regular lessons! I love his personality! Such vibrancy and he uses very practical examples. Looking forward to studying and learning and eventually being conversational in Nepali language. Dherai dhanyabaad Dikshant!

Another great lesson! Now we are reading another very cute children's book to learn new vocabulary and Nepali culture, and to practice grammar structures. My Nepali in-laws are visiting and Dikshant kindly offered to also answer questions outside of class time if I have any.

Dikshant's lessons have, so far, been truly excellent. He is empathetic to an absolute beginner such as myself and his impeccable English is very comforting. His lessons are light hearted and entertaining whilst remaining productive and insightful. His resources, though limited by the fact that Nepali isn't a popular language to learn, accompany the lessons and his teaching style brilliantly, always adding to the learning experience.
Dikshant is passionate about sharing his language with the world and after a lesson with him you will be too.

Dikshant is a rockstar teacher! He brings fantastic energy to every class and keeps a casual and fun atmosphere while still ensuring each lesson is productive and goal-oriented.
Dikshant took the time to understand my Nepali learning goals and craft a tailored lesson plan.
I was initially nervous about learning Nepali but Dikshant has turned it into something that I look forward to. I can't recommend working with him enough!

Dikshantji is consistently on point with his lessons. Being very popular we may not meet again for several weeks, but what I have learned and supplementary coursework in the meantime means a very full break before next lesson. I cannot express enough just how valuable these lessons are for me
