This course is perfect for you if: 

  • You travel to South Africa for business or leisure
  • You've been searching for classes that teach African dialects. 
  • You're fascinated with linguistics, culture, and/or communication.

You will learn Xhosa greetings, pronunciations, and as many conversational phrases as you can retain during this 6-week intensive. We'll discuss history, culture, food, clothing... and, of course, the infamous clicks that are characteristic of Xhosa.

We are also accepting DONATIONS (optional), which will be dispersed to students in need of scholarships.
