The Best Indonesian Language Courses in Bali and Online

Indonesian language, locally known as Bahasa Indonesia is arguably one of the world's easiest languages to learn. Spoken by 280 million people of various ethnic groups and local languages, Indonesian is created to be simple, so all Indonesians can learn and use it to communicate with each other. Learning Bahasa Indonesia will also enable you to understand its sister language Malay, which is widely spoken in Malaysia, Brunei, and Singapore.

Why study with us?

They graduated from notable universities, all holding bachelor's and some master's degrees in language teaching, literature, and other related majors. Most importantly, they are passionate about teaching and sharing our language and culture.

Communicative and Practical

To learn Indonesian more effectively, exposure is key. That's why we immerse you in the language as much as possible. In class, your teachers strive to have the lessons entirely in Bahasa Indonesia. Grammar and language structures are taught in a practical context, enabling us to communicate in the Indonesian language most of the time.

Our Indonesian classes include video and audio lessons of daily conversations, mini stories, and movie clips. These lessons are designed to help you improve your listening skills and become more familiar with the sound and rhythm of the language as well as learning Indonesian cultures. Studying Indonesian with us grants you free access to our collection of lessons.

Language Learning Apps

We provide scientifically proven flashcard apps that utilize machine learning and spaced repetition approach to help you remember vocabulary long-term. All words and phrases in the flashcards correspond to our course books, equipped with sentence examples and voice recording. With regular use, you'll be able to recall Indonesian vocabulary with ease and confidence.

We want you to sound like us, Indonesians, which is why we've adapted our teaching materials from authentic resources that are part of our everyday lives. Our materials include real and natural conversations, monologues, stories, as well as YouTube videos, movie clips, TV series, podcasts, newspapers, and blogs - all of which we adjust to your proficiency level.

Personalized learning

Ultimately, we understand that every learner is unique. We listen carefully and personalize our teaching approach to meet your specific learning styles and language needs. If you believe you learn Indonesian best in a certain way or you need Bahasa Indonesia for specific purposes, please let us know. We will do our best to accommodate and support you.

Proficiency Level

We can help you speak Indonesian from scratch or start from your current level. At Jembatan Bahasa Indonesian Language School, we have adapted the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) as our guideline. We have six levels which correspond to the CEFR framework.

If you have learned Indonesian before, we will asses your level on your first class to make sure you take the right course. We also conduct assessments to monitor your language learning progress and to see if you're ready to move to the next level.
