📚 How much Hindi do I need to know to sign up for a course?
When considering college and learning center classes be prepared to show a language test profeciency score or take an entrance test to determine your level. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework load and exams, so research the details in advance. With personal Hindi tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.
🔥 Why is Hindi not easy and are there ways to learn it more effectively?
Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Hindi. As proven by others before, you can gain basic Hindi fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback five hours a week you will be able to understand most sentences, have simple conversations, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Hindi. After attaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Hindi tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced learners.
🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of Hindi?
Some people have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Hindi will demand at least 600 hours of dedication. The required duration of time can differ a lot depending on your existing level of Hindi or proficiency in other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, write using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Hindi out loud. If this is a greater challenge than you had anticipated you can also take conversational Hindi classes online.
🤳 Can I choose my own Hindi tutor?
In language learning academies, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from the ones who already work there). Online, of course! The largest selection of approved Hindi tutors with extensive profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.
🗓 Will I be able to fit lessons in my busy schedule?
Colleges usually run classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools typically make available shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can take as few as one lesson a year, as many as several a day - and as many (or as few) as you want during any time of day, on weekdays and/or weekends.
