What learners say about us
As a participant in Karvaan’s first Urdu workshop, I was introduced to a refreshing way of learning the language. With the help of technology, Tanzil Sir made reading and writing Urdu accessible over the course of several Sunday sessions. I especially enjoyed the literature and poetry he carefully selected for the classes. Karvaan’s warm and welcoming ambience made it the perfect place for a small, diverse group of people to come together through their shared love of the language.
From Urdu Workshop
This was my second time learning Urdu through a workshop organised by Karvaan India, and it was just as rewarding as the first. While the course is thoughtfully structured and exceptionally well taught, what truly sets it apart is the use of technology to make a sophisticated language like Urdu easy to understand and enjoyable to learn. I had the pleasure of learning from both Mr. Tanzil and Zeeshan, and they are outstanding teachers. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone interested in learning Urdu.
