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. All classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and exams, so research all such requirements in advance. With personal Hindi tutors you can read reviews and get a good idea for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.
🔥 Why is Hindi so challenging and are there ways to learn it more effectively?
Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Hindi. Realistically, you can gain basic Hindi fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback several hours a week you will be able to understand many sentences, express yourself, shop and place orders in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and easy way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Hindi. After gaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Hindi tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced level practitioners.
🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of Hindi?
Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Hindi will take at least 600 hours of study. The required duration of time can differ a lot depending on your current level of Hindi or familiarity with other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, try typing using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Hindi out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational Hindi classes online.
🤳 How many possibilities do I choose among when I select the right Hindi coach?
In learning centers, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from select few). Online, always! The largest selection of verified Hindi tutors with video profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.
🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?
Colleges typically run classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools typically have 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.
