About Calligraphy & Handwriting Improvement
Why I Teach Calligraphy
Art for me is about feeling, not just fancy letters. I love helping people turn simple writing into something they’re actually proud of. Bachhon ki bhavna samajh ke (understanding kids’ feelings) is what guides my classes, not just rules or drills.
What You’ll Learn
- English script: I teach both kids and adults. We start with cursive handwriting practice, step-by-step, so you get clear, neat writing. If you want to try something creative, we dive into modern calligraphy for beginners, using quotes, colors, and fun themes.
- Hindi/Devanagari script: For anyone 15+, I run workshops from basics like holding the pen, to forming letters, numbers, and even jodakshar (joint letters) and barahkhadi (vowel forms). By the end, you’ll be writing full sentences with confidence.
My Way of Teaching
I don’t believe in punishment or boring lectures. My classes are interactive, full of laughter, and I keep groups small so I can actually pay attention to everyone. You can join online from anywhere, or in-person if you’re in Delhi (Pitampura).
What You’ll Take Away
It’s not just about pretty writing. You’ll build patience, focus, and a new way to express yourself. Most of my students say they feel more confident and calm after these sessions.

My Story
Hi, I'm Sonika Gupta. Art and calligraphy are my thing, but really I just love helping kids and moms find their creative spark. That's why I started Saraswatei Learnings - art is a gift, na? Every color, every stroke, it’s a joy. I’ve taught over 10,000 students, online and here in Delhi. Nothing beats seeing a kid proud of their work. I believe in gentle guidance. Bachho ko pyaar se samjhao (explain to kids with love), let them grow and shine.
