  • “I've been taking singing classes with this platform for a couple of months now. … I've learned so much from vocal warmups and pitch training to musical notations. My teacher, Sayantani, who is an amazing artist, has been incredibly patient with me. She corrects all my off notes, and I now feel comfortable singing at least two songs.”
    Zeegii Ulziibaatar🇺🇸 USA · August 2025Trustpilot
  • “Extremely professional academy of music. Be it technical chat support, teachers (I am learning both Carnatic and Western), platform, assignments, feedback, lessons - everything is amazing. … I highly recommend this for anyone who is passionate to learn music.”
    Lekha Mohan🇺🇸 USA · October 2025Trustpilot
  • “When I first joined Artium Academy, I was a beginner. I am now on a proficient level in Carnatic singing. I thank my teacher, Dr. Valluri sir. The knowledge he has in singing and music is immense. The time slots are so flexible. I recommend Artium Academy to learn any forms of classical music.”
    Advay Velanki🇺🇸 USA · July 2025Trustpilot
  • “I've been learning Carnatic music from Artium for just over a month, and I can't believe how much progress I've made in such a short time. The coach is excellent, helping me identify areas for improvement and guiding me on how to practice to enhance my vocals. This is one of the best music learning platforms I've ever used.”
    Midhun Sivasankaran🇺🇸 USA · August 2025Trustpilot
  • “Artium's curriculum is very well designed and the platform is great for both students and teachers. I am enrolled in the Hindi Film music class. My teacher Sohan Bhattacharjee is very knowledgeable and an excellent teacher. He is patient, supportive, and gives constructive feedback to help me improve my singing.”
    Jawahar🇺🇸 USA · February 2026Trustpilot
  • “Though I've been classically trained in Carnatic music, Bollywood playback singing was completely new to me—and honestly, I never imagined I could be good at it. Yet here I am, just 12 weeks later, confidently singing 3 songs with karaoke, all thanks to Puja's patient, supportive, and expert teaching.”
