Music is something that has
always helped me through strenuous times and I have always kept it close to
myself. For Plato said, music gives a soul to the universe, wings to
the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything. The 4 years of engineering
gave me a lot of time to pursue my interest. I could join the music club and
interact with peers with similar interest. However, the pressing academic
schedule of an MBA life has made me just a listener for quite some time now.
And then, my love for music
took me to my dream instrument. It has been 4 years since we met, but I never
really got a chance to learn to play it. My guitar lies there all by itself and
no fingers run over its chords, or none do strum it. Then again of course I
have to be in my class and attend my lectures. Sitting in my classes, I always wonder,
Intellectual things have been draining hours, months and several years of my
life. But I yearned to learn one thing for myself and was unable to do it. My relationship with my
guitar was definitely going to end on a sad note where all the blame would have
been mine "for not trying at all.”
The fact that I could learn guitar sitting at home
always tempted me, but being a bit old schooled I waited till I could get a
personal tutor. But with time, my work grew and the time I could spare for my
passion shrank, and of course I had too many excuses to give to myself. Just
when I was about to give up on it, I thought to myself, ‘let me try the last
option I have’. I googled “learn guitar
from a personal tutor online” and to my surprise there were several results
to my search query. One particular site that caught my attention was
livemusictutor.com. The site had several engaging features and the navigation
was very convenient as well. I could learn any instrument at my own pace,
paying a charge for the classes from highly qualified tutors. They would
arrange for live video classes, which were personal and interactive.
The instruments they taught were mostly guitars, violin,
harp etc. But then again the Indian side of me kept popping ideas about the
beautiful instruments which are mastered and sourced mainly in India. The
instruments like Sitar, Iktara, Flute, Harmonium, Tabla etc. These instruments
are equally amazing. A thought crossed my mind, is there any site which teaches
all this in India. Can there be an Indian platform where music could be taught
through online classroom? And behold, Google never disappoints. As said by
Tolkien “Not all those who wander are lost” and my search led me to a
remarkable finding.
JugaadClass - A site that promised to provide an
innovative fix to all my learning requirements. Indeed it is an amazing
platform with state-of-the-art features like that of any renowned international
website. I could search for tutors for musical instruments and the amazing part
was I could personally message and interact with them, using the live
classrooms facilitated by audio, video, live streaming and other tools. JugaadClass
was the perfect answer to my query.
It was a real pleasure to find such a website with
fresh ideas. On top of that the experience of using the website was really
cool. I could find several credible tutors registered with it. JugaadClass
corroborated my belief in the emerging MOOCs. This is sure to be the next big
thing where anything and everything could be learnt online. JugaadClass is an
indigenous initiative is all set to give a new face to the experience of learning
and making it participative, flexible and much more fun. It has inspired me to
keep my passion high as there is no limit to learning; And with a platform like
JugaadClass, which has made learning so convenient, I can learn anything I
want, sitting at home. Knowledge is just a few clicks away.
