I began learning Urdu four years ago with Zabaan but discontinued it for three years. I restarted with Ali about five months ago, with a speed of one page/ hour. I read my first novel slowly at this speed but within four months of weekly lessons, I completed this fantastic book in record time. I even stopped looking at my screen at night and took the novel to my bed! Rediscovered the excitement of reading after a long time , all thanks to Ali. He teaches with scientific and historical perspective, why a certain alphabet is used and why not another. This adds a special dimension to Urdu. I look forward to enriching my vocabulary with his guidance. He lends me big fat books to encourage me to read more. I simply love learning Urdu at zabaan/ Ali thank you .

Ms. Anita Goswami is punctual, consistent, hardworking, very knowlegable and dedicated to my childs unique need and growth curve in learning Hindi language. With her in the lead I can see my childs language confidence and understanding improve. My only recommendation for maximising productivity, childs engagement and knowlege retention is by use of altenative tools to keep kids engaged and curious during their class time as learners learn in diff ways visual, written, audio. Thanks Ms. Goswami for a great year of learning Hindi and more to come!

I took basic Urdu lessons at Zabaan under Ali Taqi, and got completely hooked. For anyone who is enthusiastic about a language, this is the place to go to. In a detailed yet humorous manner, Ali manages to get one to understand the basics of Urdu in just three classes (if you do the homework). I highly recommend learning Urdu at Zabaan, I had a great experience going for the group classes.
