She is the native speaker of Hindi who lives in India. She shares the enthusiasm and patience of teaching Hindi for foreign students. She helps students on correct Hindi speaking and correct Hindi writing. She is willing to make the meaningful adjustment for language learning of Hindi across the class.

I've been Ritu's Hindi student for four months (and counting!). When I started, I knew nothing and she took me from the basics of writing, sounds and pronunciation to now reading sentences in books and practicing conversations. She's knowledgable about grammar rules, which I love (I'm a journalist and journalism professor), and tailors the lessons to fit my learning style and needs. I highly recommend Ritu's expertise in taking a non-Indian/native English speaker into the world of Hindi speaking. I started with three 25-minute lessons a week, which was perfect for the early months of learning the script, sounds, etc. When we advanced into grammar rules, it was beneficial for us to have one 50-minute lesson a week. This gave us time for her to explain the rules and for me to ask questions and practice. Ritu has helped me realize that this adult brain of mine is capable of learning a second language! I will continue practicing and learning until I reach a level of fluency, which will help me greatly as I'm living in India. Thank you, Ritu!
