The lessons are very well structured and fun! Really good class size which helps make the lessons more interesting as well. Also really nice classroom which was very conducive for learning. Terima kasih banyak ibu!

A good start to gain a basic understanding of the language

The beginner’s class is a good start to gain a basic understanding of the language, I picked up Bahasa Indonesia faster than I expected. Each lesson is interesting, the teacher (Ms Endina) would let our class role-play, do a pop quiz, and create challenges to test our understanding of what we have learnt. Besides learning the language, I also gained some insights to the culture, the current slangs and short-forms used by Indonesians . I found that useful!

I did half of my course online, via zoom, and the other half in classroom. Classroom learning is better as it’s great to interact with the classmates, but online is also a good option for those can’t go to the venue. The venue is a lovely space in UIC Building, really convenient esp if you are in the CBD.

Surprised at the quality of the course and really enjoyed it.

Very good! Was surprised at the quality of the course and really enjoyed it. Guru Franciska is very passionate and kind in teaching. Really enjoyed this beginner class and it made me want to learn more.

Went out of her way to ensure that we grasped key concepts

Ibu Franciska is a really great teacher and conveyed the concepts in a very clear and concise manner. She really helped us to sharpen our reading, listening and writing skills, and went out of her way to ensure that we grasped key concepts. Would highly recommend learning Bahasa Indonesia at LIA. Terima kasih banyak Ibu Franciska! 🙂

Effective, fun and engaging.

Taking the beginner class under Teacher Franciska has been effective, fun and engaging. I learnt about the language, food the daily culture of Indonesia too. Would recommend to anyone wanting to learn about Indonesia in an interactive way!

Enjoyable lessons (lots of laughter) with many interesting practices

Enjoyable lessons (lots of laughter) with many interesting practices and exercises weaved in – brilliant! Thank you LIA for the well-planned curriculum and Ibu Franciska for your patient guidance and tolerating all of our questions 🙂

Ibu Endina was always very patient

Ibu Endina was always very patient and her enthusiasm and cheerfulness helped make me feel comfortable. She encouraged me to practise speaking and make sentences often, and was always encouraging even though I am not very good at it. And because her English is also of a high standard, she could explain translate words very well. Appreciate the lessons very much. I learnt a lot!

For sure, a teacher to remember…

I have been learning Bahasa Indonesia for past 3 months, it has been a great experience and all thanks to Guru Melissa. She is understanding, patient and is very knowledgeable. What makes her stand-out is her joyful personality, and the energy she brings to class, despite having to work earlier in the day. She brings out the best in learning the language for her students. Two thumbs-up for her teaching and guidance. For sure, a teacher to remember…

Shared knowledge beyond the textbook

Franciska is fantastic! She shared knowledge and words beyond what’s in the textbook and I enjoyed the discussions into other practical areas.

I’m impressed by Learn Indonesian Asia’s pedagogy.

I’m impressed by Learn Indonesian Asia’s pedagogy, its rapid adoption of hybrid model as well as our teacher Ibu Sinta’s professionalism and patience with us, and I hope these young Singaporeans (as well as older ones like me) continue to broaden and deepen our cultural and linguistic understanding in the region! Great work.

A good foundation of the language

I am able to gain a good foundation of the language. My trainer is very patient and helps ensure that I have adequate understanding of the learning points before moving on to a new chapter. Overall, the learning experience has been very pleasant and enriching.

I cannot be more pleased with the materials & teaching quality

My children have been with Bu Sinta for a few months now, I cannot be more pleased with the materials, teaching quality and the teacher competencies. Bu Sinta is very good with small children, she is patient and definitely has her own charm that makes children enjoy being around her. She is also a great listener and when I I made a special request to challenge my kids more during the lessons. With my full permission, Sinta happily did as requested, she reads the situation well and knows when she needs to be firm and assertive towards my kids in order to help them progress faster and get the most out of the lessons together. To those looking for high quality Indonesian lesson, look no further and register with LIA and if you are looking for a teacher for your children, I can highly recommend Bu Sinta!

The learning process was made easier and more fun.

The learning process was made easier and more fun with Guru Franciska who is very patient and passionate about teaching. She doesn’t hesitate to reply queries even over the weekend and has provided quite good context/history when learning certain phrases and words, which I appreciate.

Each session is meaningful and fruitful

Ibu Santy is very friendly and understanding as a teacher. She often gives me encouraging remarks to keep my learning experience non-threatening but enjoyable. She is equally effective and proficient both in person and online, in conducting the lessons, making each session engagement meaningful and fruitful. She is very punctual and responsible in discharging her duty.

I truly enjoyed every session and would highly recommend it

Ibu Endina was very patient , enthusiastic, and encouraging. Clearly passionate about the language, she introduced additional socio-cultural and socio-political elements in the conversations through the use of various media, which were highly relevant and interesting. I truly enjoyed every session and would highly recommend it.

Very happy with the teaching pace & professionalism

Very happy with the teaching pace, professionalism and her (Bu Franciska’s) patience over the duration of this course!.
