Who we are

We're Sikh parents figuring this out too.

Maastarji (ਮਾਸਟਰ ਜੀ) means "respected teacher." If you're one generation from Punjab, not fluent in Gurmukhi yourself, and quietly scared your kids will lose this — that's exactly why we're here. We felt the same gap, so we make free, English-first Sikhi and Punjabi resources you can use tonight, no scholarship required.

A Sikh child learning Gurmukhi with Maastarji

Who we are

Maastarji was born from a simple question that many Sikh parents in the diaspora wrestle with: How do we pass on our faith and heritage to our children in a way that actually sticks?

Family helps. Sangat at Gurdwara Sahib helps. But we wanted something more — resources families could use at home, in English so they're accessible, but rooted in our traditions. So we started building them.

Today Maastarji is built by a team of parents, teachers, and volunteers who share a passion for making Sikhi learning joyful and accessible for the next generation.

Who we serve

Diaspora Sikh families — in Toronto, London, NJ, the Bay Area, Melbourne, and everywhere else our kids are growing up far from Panjab.

Books, games, coloring, quizzes — built for short attention spans and real retention.

For parents

Guides in plain English, conversation prompts, and printable activities for home learning.
