Indonesian Immersion Program
One of the best ways to learn Indonesian is by immersing yourself in the language and the culture of the Indonesian people. In this Indonesian immersion program, you will be exposed to the language in a natural, everyday setting. Your classes will be a combination of Indonesian lessons with our professional instructors, activity classes, and cultural exploration to practice the language in real-life situations as well as deepen your understanding of Indonesian culture.
You can choose to take this immersion program for as short as one week and as long as six months. We arrange the program based on your Indonesian proficiency level. Here is an example of one week program for beginner students.
