Devanagari & sounds
The vowels and consonants, said aloud and written by hand from the first session.
- Vowels and consonants
- Correct stroke order
- Sound-to-letter matching
Children learn to read, write and speak Hindi step by step. Lessons cover letters, words, vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, listening and comprehension — all taught through simple activities, stories and conversation.

A few letters at a time, never the whole alphabet at once.
Brolly Juniors runs Hindi classes for kids in Hyderabad for ages 4 to 14. Children learn the Devanagari alphabet and matras, build reading fluency, write correctly, and practise everyday conversation out loud in every session. Beginners are welcome, and in Hyderabad most children start as beginners because Hindi is a school subject rather than a home language.
What children learn, and why the lessons are built this way.
Children learn four things together: reading, writing, speaking and understanding. Each one helps the others, so none of them is left until later.
Language practice matters because Hindi has a large alphabet. Learning it in a fixed order, a few letters at a time, is far easier than meeting letters at random. Every new letter builds on the ones before it.
Reading and writing work together. When a child writes a letter, their hand learns its shape, which makes the letter much easier to recognise the next time they read it.
Speaking practice is useful because a language you say out loud sticks. Many children in Hyderabad hear Hindi on television or from friends but rarely speak it themselves — so children talk in every session, even in the first few weeks.
Activities make all of this easier. Word games, picture matching, stories and poems keep a child going for longer than a worksheet would, and it is the extra practice that makes the difference.
Hindi is written almost exactly as it sounds. Once a child knows the letters, they can read a word they have never seen before and say it correctly. That makes reading easier than in English, where spelling often surprises you.
The two parts children find trickier are the matra vowel marks and noun gender. Both are taught gradually rather than all at once.
Simple explanationHindi is written in the Devanagari script. Once a child knows the letters, they can read words. Once they can read words, they can read sentences and stories. Classes take a child through those steps in order, one small piece at a time.
Easy exampleA child learns three letters: क, ल and म. Put them together and they can read कलम — kalam, which means pen. Three letters, one real word.
At Brolly JuniorsSpeaking is practised in every session, not saved until the reading is finished — which is the part a crowded school period rarely has time for. Book a free trial and your child can try a session before you decide anything.
In Hyderabad, Hindi is often a school subject rather than a home language. That makes structured practice more useful, not less.
Regular reading turns slow letter-by-letter decoding into smooth reading. That change usually takes a few months of steady practice.
Guided handwriting practice makes Devanagari letters neat and quick to write, which matters for school work.
More words means more a child can say and understand. Words are taught in themes so they connect to daily life.
Children get to actually use Hindi out loud, which a crowded school period rarely allows time for.
Following spoken Hindi and understanding what was asked is a skill of its own, practised directly.
Reading a passage and answering questions about it is different from reading it aloud. Both are practised.
A child who can read a signboard or a storybook stops feeling shut out of a language they hear around them.
Hindi stories and poems open up once a child can read them alone rather than being read to.
School Hindi asks for reading fluency, spelling and comprehension. These are the same skills practised here.
A note on expectations: how fast a child progresses depends on how often they practise and where they start. We do not promise particular school marks or a fixed timeline — what we commit to is structured teaching and regular guided practice.
Eight things children work on across the programme.
From recognising single letters to reading a short story without help.
Correct letter shapes, neat handwriting, and writing full sentences unaided.
Everyday conversation practised out loud in every session, not saved for later.
New words grouped by theme — family, food, animals — so they are easier to remember.
Nouns, verbs, gender and sentence order, taught through examples rather than rules.
Saying sounds clearly, including the ones that are easy to mix up.
Following spoken Hindi and picking out what matters in what was said.
Reading a passage and answering questions about it in the child’s own words.
Script and speech are taught together. A child who can read Hindi but never speaks it loses it the year the school subject ends.
The vowels and consonants, said aloud and written by hand from the first session.
The vowel marks change the syllable, and suddenly whole words can be read.
Sentence order, gender and conjuncts — the point where reading becomes fluent rather than laboured.
Stories, poems and real conversation, so the language is usable outside the classroom.
A learning structure rather than a school-board syllabus. Ask us for the current programme detail for your child’s level.
The starting point for every child. Hindi letters, vowels, consonants, sounds, letter recognition and simple words.
Letters become words. Word reading, writing practice, spelling, simple sentences and steady vocabulary building. The matra vowel marks are introduced here.
Grammar basics, sentence formation, reading comprehension, speaking practice and listening activities. The four skills start working together.
Longer passages, story reading, creative writing, conversation, grammar applied in real writing, and comprehension activities.
Suggested groupings. Activities adapt to the child’s current Hindi level rather than being fixed by age.
Ages 4–6
Ages 7–9
Ages 10–12
Ages 13+
Not sure where your child fits? A free trial is the quickest way to find out. We see what your child can already do and suggest a starting point.
Reading is built in stages. A child never jumps from letters straight to a storybook — each stage is practised until it feels easy.
Devanagari is written as it sounds, so once a child knows the letters they can read a word they have never seen before. That is why letter recognition gets so much attention early on, and why the matras are introduced only once the plain letters are secure.
Comprehension is added once a child reads sentences comfortably. Reading the words is one skill; understanding what they mean is another, and both are practised.
Naming any letter quickly and correctly.
Reading whole words rather than sounding out each letter.
Reading a full sentence smoothly, with the right pauses.
Regular short readings that build speed and confidence.
A short Hindi story read from start to finish, alone.
Answering questions about what was just read.
Writing is practised alongside reading, because forming a letter by hand is what makes it easy to recognise later.
The correct order of strokes, including the headline that joins Devanagari letters.
Regular short practice so letters become consistent in size and shape.
Adding vowel marks in the right place, which is where most early spelling errors come from.
Writing whole words correctly, joining what a child already knows.
Putting words in the right Hindi order to make a complete sentence.
Writing a word from memory, which is harder than copying and more useful.
Writing to a prompt with help available while the child works.
Writing a few sentences of their own — a short story or a description.
Children speak Hindi in every session. These are the kind of everyday exchanges they practise — the romanisation is there so you can say them at home too.

Saying each sound clearly, with gentle correction the moment it slips rather than later.
Children take turns asking and answering, so they practise both sides of a conversation.
Retelling a short story in their own Hindi words — the hardest and most useful speaking task.
Tap a theme to see the words. New vocabulary is always taught in groups like these, so each word connects to something a child already talks about.

Grammar is taught through examples, not rules to memorise. Here is what children learn and what each part looks like.
A noun is a naming word — a person, animal, place or thing.
माँ (maa — mother) · बिल्ली (billi — cat) · स्कूल (school)
A pronoun stands in for a name, so you do not repeat it every time.
मैं (main — I) · तुम (tum — you) · वह (vah — he or she) · हम (hum — we)
A verb is a doing word. It tells you what is happening.
खाना (khaana — to eat) · पढ़ना (padhna — to read) · खेलना (khelna — to play)
In Hindi the verb comes last. English says “I eat rice”; Hindi says “I rice eat”.
मैं चावल खाता हूँ। (main chaawal khaata hoon — I eat rice.)
Most Hindi words change their ending to show there is more than one.
किताब → किताबें (book → books) · लड़का → लड़के (boy → boys)
Every Hindi noun is masculine or feminine, and the verb changes to match. Children learn this by ear, through examples.
लड़का खाता है। (the boy eats) · लड़की खाती है। (the girl eats)

Eight simple things that make a real difference between sessions. None of them takes long.
Take turns reading a line each. Your child hears fluent reading and practises their own.
Five words a day is plenty. Short and regular beats long and occasional.
One exchange at dinner counts as practice, whatever answer comes back.
Signboards, packets, television captions. Real Hindi in the world is good practice.
Ask your child to tell you what happened in a story, in Hindi, in their own words.
A few letters or one sentence a day keeps handwriting steady between sessions.
“What new word did you learn today?” makes a child recall it, which is what fixes it.
Word games and rhymes work better than testing. A child who enjoys it will keep going.
Six short answers to the things that come up most in a first phone call.
Not especially. Hindi is written as it sounds, so reading is easier than in English once the letters are known. The two trickier parts are the matras and noun gender, and both are taught gradually.
By reading a little every day at a level that is comfortable. Reading something slightly too hard slows a child down; reading something easy builds speed and confidence.
By speaking, even imperfectly. Ask questions in Hindi at home and accept whatever answer comes. Correcting every mistake makes children stop trying.
A little most days works better than a long session once a week. Ten or fifteen minutes of reading or writing is enough to keep progress steady.
Yes, and in Hyderabad most children do. Nothing assumes a Hindi-speaking home — beginners start from the vowels.
They can. School Hindi asks for reading fluency, spelling and comprehension, which are the same skills practised here. We would not promise particular marks.
For most families here, Hindi is a school subject rather than the language spoken at home. Children hear it on television and from friends, meet it formally in a crowded period, and rarely get to say much of it out loud.
That is the gap these classes close. Beginners are the norm, speaking is practised every session, and the parts that make Devanagari feel hard — the matras, and gender — are introduced gradually rather than in one lesson.

Tell us your child’s age and how much Hindi they already know, and we will suggest where they should start.
Parents searching for Hindi classes near me usually want the same few things: a place that is easy to reach, a teacher who explains simply, and a class pitched at the right level. The level is the part worth checking carefully, because a child who has done two years of school Hindi needs something quite different from a complete beginner.
