04 · How we teach
And we keep learning how you want to be taught.
Teaching artist
Nikita designs every course around doing, not watching: clear narrated demonstrations, deliberate pacing, and a practice learners can return to.
Artist, educator, and platform builder
Across 15+ years in art, SEL, teaching, and performance, Shashank now shapes Alekhyam's learning journeys and the systems around them.
For anyone who wants to make art - not just watch tutorials.
Step by step - lessons follow a clear sequence, from first exercises to finished work.
See the process - each demonstration shows the choices, not only the final result.
Return when needed - replays and recorded access make room for real life.
Personal feedback - written by hand, by your instructor, on your own work. Included where the course page says so.
“Start, stumble, pause, or restart. Just never stop, in art and life.”
Issued on request once you complete the course, and only in your name.
05 · A place to begin
No payment method required to enrol.
One repeatable method to sketch any everyday object from observation.
06 · Before you choose
Access, formats, refunds, and how it all works.
Choose by what you want to try and how much time you want to give it.
Recorded courses are available instantly after payment, let you learn at your own pace, and stay open for 2 years. Live workshops add scheduled Zoom sessions and real-time Q&A. Live-session recordings are available within 24 hours. Replays stay open for 3 months on most workshops and 6 months on the 14-Day programme.
Each course page lists its own materials before checkout. Here is a real example supply list. You can find sketchbooks and art supplies in the Alekhyam Shop, with more products launching soon.
WhatsApp guidance is available for questions and sharing work. Personal feedback is written by your instructor where the course page says it is included, with the exact scope shown before you book. A certificate is issued on request once you complete the course, and only in your name.
Recorded courses: request a full refund within 48 hours of purchase and before watching 25% of the course. Live workshops: place the request after Session 1 and by 11:59 PM that same day, using either IST or your local time. Full details are in the refund policy.
