I had a wonderful experience with "The Naturalist School". Their CNS Hybrid Program was extremely well designed, informative, and engaging. There was a lot to learn, but what I enjoyed most was the way the program helped me look at nature and our surroundings from a completely different perspective.

The experience made me realise how much there is to observe and understand in the natural world around us—things that are always there, but which many of us simply overlook. In a way, the program opened a door to a world that had always been around me, but that I had never really noticed.

The instructors were simply amazing. Their years of experience, deep knowledge, sincerity and genuine passion for nature came through in every session. More importantly, they had a wonderful ability to share their knowledge in a way that made learning interesting and meaningful.

I came away from the program with a much greater appreciation and respect for nature and the ecosystems around us. I am truly grateful to The Naturalist School for conducting such a wonderful learning experience. It has certainly changed the way I look at the world around me.

My journey with The Naturalist School (TNS) has been truly meaningful and transformative. Being part of TNS has given me an opportunity to learn, explore and work closely with nature, while also helping me understand the importance of conservation and responsible tourism.
What I appreciate most about TNS is its approach to learning—combining classroom knowledge with field experiences, nature walks, storytelling, interpretation and real-world conservation work. The team is passionate, supportive and always encourages us to keep learning and observing nature with curiosity.
My experience with TNS has not only improved my understanding of birds, wildlife, ecosystems and biodiversity, but has also helped me develop confidence in guiding, communicating and connecting people with nature.
I am grateful to be part of this journey and proud to contribute to the work of The Naturalist School. TNS is more than a learning platform—it is a community that inspires people to understand, experience and care for nature.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to deepen their connection with nature and contribute meaningfully to conservation. 🌿🐦

I recently did the Citizen Naturalist course conducted by The Naturalist School. The course was a combination of informative and engaging online lectures and hands-on activity-based learning at the Beforest Collective, Hyderabad. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend the course to anyone who wishes to deepen thier understanding of and engagement with the natural world.

I have done by Certified Citizen Naturalist course from The Naturalist School (TNS). It was an awesome experience filled with knowledge & learning. The course divided between online & offline sessions by keeping the busy schedules in mind for working professionals.
All the trainers were highly knowledgable & masters in their own field. The offline residential session over the weekend was cherry on the cake. A lot of field works with highly knowledgable trainers gave a lot of opportunities to know about many species which generally we overlook.
Overall a highly recommended course for someone who wants to know more about nature & it's jewels.

I recently completed the CitiNat Foundation Course, and it was such an interesting and enriching experience. I went into the course knowing very little about birds, insects, plants, and the natural world around me, but every session taught me something new and made me look at nature with so much more curiosity. The sessions were engaging, informative, and explained in a way that made learning genuinely enjoyable. I especially loved how the course encouraged us to observe things we would normally walk past without noticing. I’ve come away with so much more knowledge and a deeper appreciation for the biodiversity around us.

I want to build my career in nature, ecology and biodiversity conservation. I've been into flora & fauna documentation since 2023, and I want to take the next step. I am waiting for the right opportunity to be trained by the right people.

Glad I did the Citizen Naturalist foundation course from “The Naturalist School”. An important decision in building my Naturalist portfolio.

Attending The Naturalist School’s hybrid Citizen Naturalist Foundation Course in Hyderabad was an eye-opening experience. The initial online modules were equally engaging and informative, laying a solid foundation for the hands-on residential session at the Beforest Hyderabad Collective. Huge thanks to Suhas and Ashwin for a fantastic experience and for fostering such a warm community of like-minded peers. Highly recommended for anyone seeking to learn, find inspiration, and deepen their relationship with nature!
