"I improved so much after playing guitar with Shovik sir. Before i couldnt even play lead parts slowly but now i can play it in a pretty fast tempo. The exercises sir gives improves the control, speed and finger placement if you practice enough. I never could play barre chords but now i can play a few of them. About Shovik sir, he is just epic with those shredding lead parts and chord progessions. None of my past teachers could play like this sir and they were very still famous. In other words , i just improved a lot in this short period of time with Shovik sir. "

"Have a good number of years of experience so he know where his student might be struggling in learning new things. Clear all doubts with personal guidance. Give thorough knowledge of music theory before making you learn songs on guitar. So someday if you apply those music theory properly you can create your own songs and even by just listeniy to music you would be able to play it yourself. "

"Extremely knowledgeable into any genre of music be it Jazz, Blues, Indian Classic. An artist who produces music is the best guide to guide from the musicality perspective and to inspire you to follow a similar approach. I started taking classes from him from last 1 year and I think I have progressed a lot in terms of my music theory and application of music theory be it using Arpeggios, Scales, ear training, fretboard visualisation etc. He understood my requirements as I had self learned guitar for 3 years and wanted to well round my knowledge and open my perspective about music. He gave specific exercises on the fretboard with guitar pro files which really helped me in flexibility and my picking technique and every discussion fueled some ideas which I also went and learned more about it. Well its also a fact that no tutor can do the magic and you also have to practice a lot and explore music by combining songs and different exercises in routine which is the methodology used by Souvik Sir as well. Besides all if this he is a great Singer and I was really surprised by his singing skills and that is very inspiring for me as singing really helps to translate it to the instrument. I am still loving the discussions with him and it really helps when you don't have a musical group around you to talk to someone who opens up your mind. "

"Firstly I would like to thank urban pro for connecting me with such a gem of a teacher. My experience has been something greater than wonderful. Each and every lesson is given with great care, delicacy and passion. And the communication level shovik sir builds with us is just unmatched. I am so fortunate to have him as my guru. "

"Shovik sir is a great teacher! He started teaching me right from the basics and would also teach songs in between to keep things interesting. He gave me in-depth theory lessons on scales, chord theory, etc and helped me form a really good knowledge base. He had me practise a lot and helped me improve constantly. "

"A guitar maestro. He’s a musical genius with a plethora of practical and theoretical knowledge along with his collection of self composed musical practice lessons and some of the old masterpieces from Mozart - Beethoven etc - carefully simplified for learning and practising. Mixing technology with music he is able to create a new dimension in learning Guitar. Software’s and apps, From Classical Indian practice lessons to English Rock music, he’s got it all. He was in a band that had won many accords in his college days and has an experience of more than 15 years in guitar. Now he has devoted himself in teaching his lessons to the people. Start learning if you really want to learn a guitar and play unlimited songs. It will take time. But only someone like him can get you there!! I’m still in the process. And there’s something new everyday! "

"Shovik sir is literally the best Guitar tutor. I have tried many guitar tutors - both online and offline, but sir's way of teaching is just way too good. "

"I consider myself to be what you'd call a 'hardcase newbie'. Prior to joining Mr. Gupta's classes, I had tried a lot of sessions where and there to get the ball rolling. I'd diligently work on whatever I'd come across. But unfortunately, I'd get nowhere. And then I came across him in December of 2019, and that is when my journey in guitar truly began in true sense. When you come to Shovik sir's classes, you don't just learn the instrument. He teaches you more. Essentially, he makes you sink into the art of philosophy of music. He doesn't want none of his students to just be okay with playing the instrument. No, he wants you to ingrain every little detail in your bones. There is a lot that I could say but unless you decide to come to try out the classes first handedly, you'd only be listening to somebody else's experience. And that could only tell so much about all that you could potentially unravel in your journey over here. Joining his classes has made me a better human being in the process. The instrument has helped me deal with my mental health issues. The environment over here pushes you to be a better version of yourself. But like I said, you'd not know untill you try. So try. First handedly. Come down for a class whenever time serves you and it'd never be a waste of your time. "

"For building up a strong base of music he is the best teacher you can get. The in-depth teaching of how and why instead of just superficial teaching. "

"The one i learn guitar from really teaches very well and he also improvises each student individually. Gives strong emphasis on basic theory and makes us practice. Then comes to process and introduction. The thing i like most is his emphasization on basics. Because the more i understand the basics the better i can practice. He is also very motivational and ideal as a teacher. He teaches how to be professional and make new improvisation on our owns. He teaches different kind of playing than the way all play. Shares new equipments for practice which is very helpful. In the current situation he is taking classes. He throws many new ideas and also helps to compose music on our own. He himself is a great guitarist. And while he plays he also presents his skills in such a way that inspires us a lot. "

"I have been a self taught guitarist and was not confident in what I was doing. The best thing that happened when I enrolled myself to learn the guitar was to request Shovik Sir to help me in learning the guitar thoroughly. In a couple of months, not only have I gained confidence, but it started making sense in what I was playing on the guitar. Shovik sir, is a Guru for music lovers and those who want to develop their knowledge in music. He has the right way of learning with proper guidance and professionalism. ability to structure lessons his in-depth knowledge and theory of music. He gave me the confidence and knowledge I needed to enjoy what i was doing for my personal needs and goals it has surpassed my expectations. Shovik Sir is really amazing person and skilled guitar teacher I ever found. With his way of guitar lesson, he has helped me to be a good musician. Thank you Shovik Sir. God bless. "

"Shovik is a very passionate teacher. When I got his contact from UrbanPro I was very hesitant to join as I did not know anything about him. All doubts disappeared when I met him and finally joined his classes early this year. His concept & understanding of music is clear, he has a vast knowledge of different genres of music including Rock, Jazz and is always eager to share the same with his students. He analyses each and every aspect of the lessons he gives. A very open-minded teacher, he is a great guitarist on his own right which itself is inspiring. He has his own group and composes, writes his own music. Anything you name he will play, not only that he will break it down and explain the same. Certainly, the best teacher I have come across and I enjoy the classes immensely. "

Ofcourse it's the perfect age to start, be it vocal or instrumental music. Regular exposure to music will make the notes and the rhythms sync in the children's minds, and they would also learn to concentrate as music is one of the highest forms of meditation.

Only for intermediate and advanced players but not for beginners, since lots of vital physical aspects like finger alignments, hand positions and most importantly , the organic inspiration to listen to your guru play in front of you can never be achieved online
