Thank you Victoria we love hearing such nice feedback about our teachers we’re proud of them too. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review we appreciate it!
I have been taking private hindi lessons online at Zabaan from summer 2024. I am German and I live in South Africa.
Before I came to South Africa I had the opportunity to check out classes in person.
From 2024 I enjoy my teachers' Vartika and Priya's excellent knowledge of hindi grammar as well as their method of teaching. I have learned a lot. Their commitment to keep improving my skills made me choose Zabaan again to further my studies for a final exam in Germany.
In addition, student coordinator Olivia is always available to schedule classes and help out in any way she can. I would choose Zabaan again and again when it comes to learning hindi at ease and in a supportive environment. Thank you, Zabaan!
मैं 2024 की गर्मियों से ज़बान में ऑनलाइन निजी हिंदी कक्षाएं ले रही हूँ। मैं जर्मन हूँ और मैं दक्षिण अफ्रीका में रहती हूँ।
दक्षिण अफ्रीका आने से पहले मुझे व्यक्तिगत रूप से कक्षाएं देखने का अवसर मिला था।
2024 से मैं वर्तिका जी और प्रिया जी के साथ कक्षाएं ले रही हूँ। हिंदी व्याकरण के उनके उत्कृष्ट ज्ञान और उनकी शिक्षण पद्धति ने मेरे हिंदी कौशल को निखारा है। मेरे कौशल को निरंतर बेहतर बनाने की उनकी प्रतिबद्धता ने मुझे जर्मनी में परीक्षा की तैयारी के लिए फिर से ज़बान को चुनने के लिए प्रेरित किया।
इसके अलावा, छात्र समन्वयक ओलिविया कक्षाओं का समय निर्धारित करने और हर मदद करने के लिए हमेशा उपलब्ध रहती हैं। जब भी हिंदी सीखने की बात आती है, तब मैं सहजता और सहयोगात्मक माहौल में ज़बान को बार-बार चुनूँगी। धन्यवाद, ज़बान!

I have been learning Hindi and Urdu from my teacher Mohd Raza Ali. My experience has been amazing! In a short amount of time Raza has taught me how to engage and hold simple conversation. Raza has been very opened to my questions about culture and has taught me key phrases for various interactions. Would recommend.

Love reading this Mitchell thank you. Raza ji is certainly one of our most experienced and beloved teachers we’re so glad you are enjoying your lessons
Learning English with Rudraksh has been such a positive and motivating experience for me. He’s the youngest teacher I’ve studied with, but his teaching skills, patience, and clarity are truly impressive. Even though my English is around A2 level, he always finds ways to make everything easy to understand. We’ve been reading “Short Stories in English”, which suits my level perfectly. Whenever I come across difficult words or pronunciation, he explains them in simple English with clear and practical examples. I really appreciate that he doesn’t just ask me to memorize vocabulary instead, he helps me understand how to use words naturally in sentences. Within just a few weeks, I’ve noticed real progress. I’ve gone from reading word by word to speaking and reading in full sentences with much more confidence. I feel genuinely lucky to have such a patient, kind, and dedicated teacher. His lessons make me enjoy learning English more and more each time.
จากประสบการณ์ของเรา คนไทยส่วนใหญ่มักจะเรียนภาษาอังกฤษด้วยวิธี “ท่องจำคำศัพท์ทีละคำ แปลทีละคำ” ซึ่งพอถึงเวลาจะพูดจริง ๆ ก็มักจะยังติดสำเนียงไทยอยู่ และบางครั้งก็ไม่รู้ว่าคำเหล่านั้นควรใช้ในสถานการณ์ไหน พอพูดออกไปแล้วก็ยังรู้สึกไม่เป็นธรรมชาติคนฟังไม่ค่อยเข้าใจหรือบางทีพูดไปเองยังงงเองเลย และหลังจากที่ได้พูดคุยกันนั้นคือคุณครูก็สามารถรู้ได้ทันทีเลยว่า อ๋อ ปัญหามันอยู่ที่เราออกเสียงไม่ชัดเจนตอนนี้เรากำลังเรียน การอ่านและการออกเสียงภาษาอังกฤษ กับ ครูรูทรักษ์ (Rudraksh) ซึ่งเป็นเจ้าของภาษาโดยตรง ต้องบอกเลยว่าวิธีการสอนของเขาแตกต่างจากที่ไทยมาก เขาไม่ได้ให้เราท่องจำคำศัพท์แบบแยกคำ แต่จะสอนให้เข้าใจทั้ง “ประโยคและบริบท” พร้อมกัน ทำให้เรารู้ว่าคำนี้ใช้เมื่อไหร่ ใช้อย่างไร ถึงจะฟังดูเป็นธรรมชาติ
เวลามีคำที่ออกเสียงยาก เขาจะค่อย ๆ ช่วยฝึก ช่วยปรับ และแนะนำเทคนิคให้เราออกเสียงได้ชัดขึ้นโดยไม่รู้สึกกดดันเลย เขาใจเย็นมากและเข้าใจผู้เรียนคนไทยจริง ๆ เพราะเขารู้ว่าการแก้พูดอังกฤษติดสำเนียงไทยเป็นเรื่องที่ต้องใช้เวลาและความอดทนมากๆ ตั้งแต่ได้เรียนกับเขา รู้สึกว่าภาษาอังกฤษกลายเป็นเรื่องง่ายขึ้นเยอะ ทั้งการอ่านออกเสียงและการเข้าใจประโยคทั้งตอนพูดและตอนฟัง ภายในเวลาไม่กี่อาทิตย์ เรารู้สึกว่าตัวเองพัฒนาอย่างเห็นได้ชัด จากที่เคยอ่านได้แค่ทีละคำ ตอนนี้สามารถพูดและอ่านเป็นประโยคได้แต่ก็ยังต้องพัฒนาไปเรื่อยๆ รู้สึกโชคดีมากๆ ที่ได้มีคุณครูที่ใจดี อดทน และตั้งใจสอนเราจริงๆ ถ้าใครอยากพัฒนาภาษาอังกฤษให้พูดได้ชัด ฟังเข้าใจ และมั่นใจมากขึ้น เราอยากแนะนำเลยค่ะว่า ลองมาเรียนกับครู Rudraksh แล้วจะรู้ว่าภาษาอังกฤษไม่ยากอย่างที่คิดจริง ๆ ค่ะ
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 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.

Thank you Jordan! Your kind comments have been passed on to your teachers as well- we all thrive on knowing our students have had a great experience and reaching their goals. So stoked for you! Thanks for taking the time to leave this kind review 👏
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!

Thank you so much for your positive and helpful review 🙏🙏🙏
I’ve been learning Hindi at this institute for about 5 months, and it’s been a great experience. The classes are well-structured and the environment is friendly.
Priya, my Hindi teacher, has been amazing. She is patient, attentive, and tailors her lessons to my learning pace. Her explanations are always clear, and she provides constructive feedback. I’ve made real progress in both speaking and understanding Hindi. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking to learn Hindi!

Thank you so much what a lovely review to read! We’ll be sure to pass this on to Priya as well. We’re so happy you’ve had such a great experience!
My hindi lessons with Anita have been fantastic! I could not ask for a better Hindi teacher. Zabaan is an excellent choice for abroad-living Desis looking to learn Hindi.

I took 90 hours of Hindi at Zabaan and was very happy about about the course; my teachers Anshu, Rachayta, Tamanna & Anita were incredibly helpful and would answer all my questions, and the course was very complete and well explained. I enjoyed coming everyday to take my Hindi classes. Keziah was as well helpful coordinating classes & schedule changes, and Meena ji was very kind. I miss coming to Zabaan on a daily basis to learn Hindi! I can only warmly recommend taking classes from Zabaan.

Thank you so much Claire really appreciate you taking the time to leave this review we know it helps other students too when choosing a place to learn!
I couldn't recommend Zabaan more highly. I have been taking private online lessons with Ali since 2020 (we began with Hindi and added Urdu in 2024). Ali's love and curiosity for the languages he teaches are truly contagious. And his patience and generosity with his students are remarkable. Each session is rewarding and enjoyable. I look forward to studying at Zabaan for many years to come.

Thank you so much Teresa, we'll make sure to pass on your commendation to Ali as well and we really appreciate you sharing your experience at Zabaan. Thanks again!
My experience with Zabaan was great all around! I had already taken some online Hindi classes, but doing them in person in Delhi was even better. Even though it was only six weeks, I feel like I was able to improve considerably - which is thanks to my two amazing teachers, Anita and Tamanna. With lots of skill, patience and fun, they taught me the beautiful Hindi language.
The school itself is located in a nice and leafy neighborhood of South Delhi, easily reachable by metro or other means of transport.
I fully recommend Zabaan for anybody wishing to improve their language skills, and I hope to be back in Delhi soon for more classes!

I learned to read Urdu in a month! This was truly a transformative experience. The instructor Ali is very patient, answers all of your questions, and shares linguistic and historical context wherever he can. This elevates the language learning experience to include explaining the cultural landscape of South Asia, and by extension (for Hindi speakers), our own heritage. It was a wonderful course - definitely worth my time. I would recommend it to anyone!

Loved reading this thank you Sharanya!!
I've been studying at Zabaan for more than a month, just finished my course this week and I am so glad I chose them. It was recommended to me by my University Professors and it was the perfect choice.
My tutor, Tamanna, is super professional, competent and she helped me out with my hindi learning journey.
I hope that in the future I'll have another opportunity to follow a course at Zabaan. That's all I can add.
Thank you so much!

I took the Intensive Beginners Hindi class last month and it truly exceeded all of my expectations. My teacher, Tamanna, was phenomenal--patient, knowledgeable, kind, and through. She gently pushed me to do my best work and her encouragement was priceless! Highly recommend both the school and Tamanna.
