24-Hour Beginner Group Course

To register, on the Sign-Up Form please select the Special Beginner Group course and in the notes, let us know which group you would like to join.

Our 24-Hour Beginner Course provides an initial introduction to speaking Indonesian language. Many of our students have continued with the second part of the course, to self-study, or to Private Classes. Others have continued on to Private Courses in order to focus on learning areas that are more specific to their professional work and personal interests in Indonesia.

This fun and interesting, yet very effective, although brief, introduction to Bahasa Indonesia is Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 2 hours each class for one month. You will learn how to pronounce and read words; introduce yourself, your friends and your family; ask questions about people and things; use numbers and money.

We suggest you take our Small-Group Beginner Indonesian Language Course if you learned to speak Indonesian without formal training, if you have a vocabulary under 100 words you can use, or if you feel unsure that your sentences are correct when you are speaking.
