Pritha Kundu

Over the past 8 years, I’ve had the privilege of working as a music educator across diverse educational settings, from international schools to colleges. I specialize in vocal training with a strong foundation in Indian classical music, supported by my academic background — a Bachelor's and Master's in Music from Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan, along with a B.Ed.

My professional journey includes roles such as:
Music Teacher at IRIS International School (2017–2019)
Music Coordinator at DRS International School (2019–2021)
Senior Teaching Facilitator at Ganges Valley School (2021–2025)

These experiences helped me work with students across various age groups and cultural backgrounds. I’ve developed and implemented music curricula aligned with international standards, conducted school performances, and organized inter-school events that encouraged student participation and creativity.

A significant achievement for me has been mentoring more than 50 students — individually and in groups — many of whom have gone on to perform confidently on stage and pursue music further. I take pride in my student-centered and adaptive teaching style, blending classical techniques with modern approaches like ear training, voice warm-ups, and breathing exercises.

What sets my work apart is the belief that music is more than just a subject — it’s a tool for emotional expression, confidence-building, and healing. My goal is always to nurture a lifelong love and understanding of music in every student I teach.

My teaching style is student-centered, encouraging, and adaptable. I believe every student learns differently, so I tailor my lessons to suit individual learning needs and pace. Whether I'm working with beginners or more advanced learners, I focus on creating a supportive and inspiring environment where students feel confident to explore and grow.

I combine traditional Indian classical methods with modern vocal techniques. My sessions typically include vocal warm-ups, breathing exercises, pitch control, ear training, and posture correction, all aimed at building a strong foundation. I also incorporate basic music theory to help students develop a deeper understanding of what they’re singing.

Creativity, discipline, and emotional expression are key elements of my teaching. I strive to make each class meaningful, engaging, and enjoyable—so students not only develop their skills but also build a lifelong connection with music.
