The best course to learn correct Sanskrit pronunciation. Even if you notice the subtle pronunciation differences in Sanskrit, it is difficult to imitate them. However, in this course, the teacher explains exactly where to place your tongue inside your mouth and also provides close-up videos showing the mouth shape while pronouncing the sounds. This is very useful. You also learn about the various options for pronouncing visarga and anusvara. It is truly a stroke of luck to have seen this before starting a serious study of Sanskrit.
