Learn a Language Your Way.

I highly recommend the Hindi language courses at Zabaan School. Teachers' explanations are to the point. They teach us various things not only about Hindi but also Indian culture. All of the staff is very kind and friendly. Also, the food there is very delicious. I would have some tea (When it comes to this tea, the ginger really did the trick. That is the most delicious tea I've ever had.)while studying with my teachers and friends. Studying Hindi at Zabaan School was an amazing experience to me！If you want to learn Hindi in India, you should definitely go to Zabaan School.

I’ve had the good fortune of a rather special relationship with Zabaan—in that, over the past several years, I’ve been both a student and a teacher there. After learning Urdu in 2008, I was looking for ways to stay connected with the language when I came across Zabaan through an internet search. Ali generously offered me the help of their in-house Urdu scholar, Reza, if I could take on the task of translating a set of stories from classical into English. While I’m certain that I severely tested Reza’s patience with my newly acquired, faltering Urdu, I began a relationship with an organisation that, as a language lover and lifelong learner, I’ve had the privilege of turning to time and again. A couple of years later, I was thrilled when Ali invited me to teach Punjabi online for Zabaan—an engagement that continued for the next couple of years. Then, courtesy of Zabaan, I took Farsi classes with a particularly interesting individual. While I’m no longer an active student or teacher with them today, Ali remains my go-to person for any questions related to Hindi, Urdu, Sanskrit—or any language, really—especially when even the internet falls short. I can always count on an answer from him; and if he doesn’t have it, he’ll make sure to find it—often along with additional context, book recommendations and more. In a world where everyone is a surface-level expert, it is a relief to know that there are people like Ali, and places like Zabaan, that do justice to the word expert. Their approach to language teaching speaks for itself in the sheer number of students they’ve taught. I see a future in which a Zabaan language certification holds the same weight as those from the world’s top language institutions—if, indeed that future hasn’t already arrived.

I took a Hindi script course online and learnt a lot in just a few classes. The teacher was great and explained everything with a lot of patience and care. Also, they responded to all my emails and solved all my queries really fast so can't recommend them enough.

회사 파견으로 인도에서 18개월 동안 생활을 하였습니다. 이때 Zabaan에서 힌디와 영어 수업을 들었습니다. 그 기간동안 함께 성장했던 시간들이 생각나서 리뷰남겨드립니다. 일단 Zabaan의 장점은 델리 시내의 다른 어학원 힌디 커리큘럼과 교재가 있다는 점입니다. 한국의 교육 현장 수준에 비교하면 이해가 안될 수 있지만 특히 힌디의 경우 인도의 오랜 역사에 따라 변화가 많아 국가가 운영하는 학교에서도 힌디의 정확한 커리큘럼이 없는 상황입니다. 그런점에서 첫 수업을 듣고 매우 만족스러웠습니다. 그리고 선생님들도 높은 교육 수준과 정확한 발음으로 교육을 진행함에 매우 만족 스러웠습니다. 그 중 특히 Juhi 선생님을 강추 드립니다. Juhi 선생님은 이화여대에서 교환학생으로 한국어를 안다는 부분이 좋았습니다. 특히 힌디를 배울때 가장 어려운 부분이 문법인데 이때 영어로 전달 받는 부분이 100% 이해가 되기 어려운 부분이 있었습니다. 그때 마다 Juhi선생님의 한국어가 도움이 많이 되었습니다 또 그 기간동안 어학공부 뿐 아니라 인도인 친구로서 그들의 생각과 문화를 체험할 수 있는 시간이 많았고,이런 경험들이 저의 인도 생활을 풍요롭게 만들어 줬던거 같습니다. 인도에서 특히 델리에서 힌디, 우르드, 또는 영어등 언어 학습을 할 기회가 있으시다면 Zabaan을 강추 드립니다!!!
