About Sonalin
Though my academic journey has taken me through the halls of NIT Rourkela and IIFT Delhi, music has always been the thread running deepest through my life and I am now wholeheartedly committed to making it my profession and purpose.
I have trained in Hindustani classical vocals for 14 years, and have been a freelance music teacher for 2 years now. What I bring to teaching is not just technical knowledge of sur, taal and raga, but a genuine sensitivity to how students learn - their hesitations, their breakthroughs, and
the patience that teaching demands.
My background in engineering and management has, if anything, sharpened my ability to break down complex concepts into structured, learnable steps - a skill I believe translates powerfully into music pedagogy. I understand discipline, systems, and the long game, all of which are at
the heart of classical music training.
