I am a professor of public health in the United States and have been taking Tamil lessons with Dr. Amirthakadeswarar for a month now. I am incredibly impressed by the breath of his knowledge of Tamil and by his love for the language and his dedication to impart that love to his students. To learn a language well, it is not enough merely to learn the vocabulary and the grammar. It is also incumbent upon the student to deeply understand the roots of the language and to appreciate its inherent beauty, through exposure to its poetry and literature. My desire to learn Tamil is to improve my ability to be able to communicate with communities about the science of public health, and while we learn that, Dr. A also shares his bountiful expertise about the history and culture underlying the language. He is a kind and patient teacher and is a pleasure to work with him. I can say with confidence that it is extremely rare to find another teacher like him and I strongly recommend him.

Prof Amirthakadeswarar is a scholar of Tamil language and literature. This means he is able to help students to not only speak and read Tamil but also understand the grammar. He can explain the language to all levels. For these reasons, he is a rare teacher on this platform. I encourage all who are interested in learning tamil to take a lesson from him.

I've learned all of the vowels and consonants very quickly. He is very good at demonstrating how to write in Tamil and also verbalizing the letters in a way that makes them easy to remember.
