My name is Girish, and I grew up in South India, studying and speaking Kannada, Hindi, and English. After college, I moved to the US for about 18 years. I learned Spanish when I cycled through Colombia and Ecuador for 9 months in 2022-23. Now, I am traveling (on and off bicycles) through India and learning more languages.

Thank you for supporting my journey of learning new cultures and languages. And, I sincerely appreciate your interest.

Ich als Lehrkraft
Currently, I am learning Nepali and Lepcha. Additionally, I am also trying to gain a basic grasp of Marathi, and Sanskrit as they are a lot similar to Hindi.
I learned Spanish while on the road in 2022-23. I loved the everyday accomplishments, but the proudest days were when the locals appreciated my Spanish.
Over the past years, I have enjoyed reconnecting with my Kannada and Hindi roots. So, I do not teach as if we're in a school, but rather we as a team decide what's important to you, and then work together towards those goals.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
Your goals help me draft a learning plan for you and we as a team work towards those goals. I use many online resources and the following are just a few of them.

My daughter is learning & picking up Kannada language with Girish Sir. Being from a non-kannada origin, I wanted my daughter to learn Kannda language, so that it will help her in schools once we move back to Bengaluru. My daughter likes Girish Sir teaching style and is confident to learn most of it in next few months.

Girish has told me about his trip around Assam and Meghalaya cycling all in KannaDa and I had to understand his story. His always super helpful giving me synonyms when I do not understand, guidance for me to reach the answer by myself, sometimes driving us to laugh a lot when I am completely out of what he is expecting but languages is made to be enjoyed and that is what I love about Girish's classes! Thank you Teacher :)
