I spent two months taking full-time in-person classes at Zabaan, and I'm very glad that I did. All of my teachers (Tamanna, Anita, Priya) were top notch. They are super knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Their expertise in teaching Hindi as a second language was so valuable, and I would love to continue classes with them in the future.

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.

Can't recommend highly enough. I took three weeks of a four week elementary Hindi intensive, and was in a small group of three students. Classes ran in the mornings Monday to Friday, leaving plenty of time for revision and other activities. Three teachers shared the classes, and each was in their own way very sensitive to the task of teaching foundational Hindi from English, with enough of the kind of hooks/sidenotes/nods to complexity that keep you engaged. The school itself is a fun place, there's a bit of an infectious love of language learning ... and its very very close to a metro station!

With over 10 years of teaching experience, I am a dedicated language tutor specializing in Pashto, Dari (Farsi), and English. My passion for languages drives me to create engaging and effective lessons tailored to the unique needs of each student. I believe that language learning is not just about vocabulary and grammar, but also about understanding culture and context, which I incorporate into my teaching approach.
As a language learner myself, currently studying Arabic and Urdu, I understand the challenges and joys that come with acquiring a new language. This perspective allows me to empathize with my students and adapt my methods to enhance their learning experience. I utilize a variety of resources, including interactive activities, multimedia materials, and real-life conversation practice, to make each lesson dynamic and enjoyable.
My goal is to foster a supportive learning environment where students feel confident and motivated to reach their language goals, whether for personal growth, travel, or professional advancement. I am committed to helping my students not only learn a language but also embrace the culture and nuances that come with it.
Let’s embark on this language journey together!
