To remove the Nut or Saddle:
1. Loosen the strings so that there is no tension on the nut or saddle
2. Gently try to push the nut and pull the saddle using your fingers. They should come right off as they are not glued
3. In case the nut or saddle are wedged tight, strike them using a rubber mallet with a low force to push them out of place

NOTE: If you install a new nut or saddle, you will have to set it up correctly. Unless you understand how that is done, it is recommended that you get it set up by an expert. If not done properly, it can damage the other parts of the guitar including the bridge and the neck.

As I am free for 20 days. Which classes and workshops should I go as I am an adult and I need some classes which should be productive? The suggestion is most welcome.

I think this totally depends on your area of interest. Whatever you want to learn start with that. I think others cant predict your level of intetest.

How can I start learning guitar on my own?
You definitely need a teacher because the all the stuff on the internet is not correct and as a beginner you will not be able to differentiate between the correct and wrong ways of doing certain things.
