Shary Rea
December 2014

I really enjoyed the classes. Both Ulan and Hana know the program well and showed good deal of patience with us.

I did find some of the workbook pages quite ambiguous. I preferred to go over the vocab first, then to read over stories and do exercise for me, the flashcards were useful but I used the vocab lists at the back of the book the most. I have not used the computer component yet so I am unable to comment of the portion.

Fraser Rea
December 2014

We enjoyed Hana as our Guru. She delivered the course well and was always helpful in assisting us to apply the learned vocabularies and phrases to our everyday life. Thank you.

The course provided us with basic vocabulary and phrases that we are now able to use and build on as we communicate with the Orang Bali.

Jacob Way
December 2014

Cinta Bahasa is a great value and has a course that is well structured.

Of the teachers I had, Handi and Ulan were the most talented. I didn’t have bad teachers, but some struggles to explain concepts in a simple way.

Very fun atmosphere, I liked that I could joke around with the teachers. I was excited to come every day.

Yolanda Onderwater

Sylvia Looijestyn
November 2014

I did 10 private classes with many different teachers, all of them were great. Was nice to get exposed to different teachers who all have another way of talking and teaching. I learned a lot. Finally understanding some grammatic concepts I struggled with before and they all made me feel very comfortable to practice talking and listening and feel confident to keep trying. Terima kasih banyak.

PS: Also thanks to the guys organising the schedule, always very helpful and friendly.

Alula McGlashan Rabik

I was very fortunate to have had Dewi and Hana as teachers. They were very patient and were able to streamline my learning to suit my needs. By week 3 I was able to have reasonably good interactions with my Indonesian friends. I had 20 lessons all together with 1.5 hour face to face sessions and this accelerated my progress. I am very satisfied.

Terima kasih Cinta Bahasa dan semua guru saya. I only spent one week here and it flew by, but I feel that my Bahasa Indonesia has greatly improved. Working with and learning from teachers patient enough to talk slowly and really make sure I understand the concepts has been a huge help. Sampai Nanti – Alec.

Rachael Bowles
October 2014

Winda is a very competant bahasa teacher. She is able to tailor approach to the level and needs of student. For example, I found I needed to improve my conversational skills and she was able to build my understanding of structure and vocabulary as we sustained conversations. She is friendly, polite, professional and very pleasant to be around. I would definitely recommend Winda. Very happy!

Robyn McVie
October 2014

I found the time I spent at Cinta BahasaLanguage School very beneficial. I particularly enjoyed the interaction and conversation practice I had with Winda.

We shared a common love of food and finding new places to eat, so much of my learning was interesting and relevant to me. Lessons in the book were useful also and explained well by both Winda and Pak Tony. As on older student, I have some frustration with retaining new vocab, but realise I will have to work at this. I will be interested in doing lessons via Skype in the future.

Heru/Robert Herd

Sebelum saya belajar bahasa Indonesia di Cinta Bahasa, saya takut saya tidak pernah bisa bicara bahasa Indonesia. Saya coba belajar, tetapi masih terjebak. Sesudahnya, saya bisa bicara dengan orang indonesia tentang banyak hal.

Guru di Cinta Bahasa sangat baik, saya belajar dengan Hana, Dewi, Ulan, Novi, Daniel, Tony, Winda, dan Della–Semua sangat ramah dan bermanfaat. Staff-Dimaz, Kadek Yasa, Jaka, dan Bu Kadek juga sangat baik dan ramah.

Cinta Bahasa mengundang saya ke upacara Saraswati, pengalaman istimewa. Saya harap saya bisa kembali ke Ubud dan belajar dengan Cinta Bahasa lagi. Terima kasih banyak!

September 2014

Excellent instruction from all teachers: Daniel, Tony, Ulan, Novi, and Trias. I was very glad to be able to study in two of the Cinta Bahasa School braches (Ubud and Sanur), to be able to interact with various local Indonesians during non-school hours. One very nice aspect also was the assistance each teacher and staff gave me to improve my language skills using current event sources. I highly recommend Cinta Bahasa to other Americans and professionals to further their language studies.
Terima Kasih

I had about 36 hours online Skype lessons with Winda and I enjoyed it very much. She was always friendly to me, for her in the afternoon, for me early morning in Belanda.

Thank you for the good lessons you teach me. Terima kasih, saya belajar Bahasa Indonesia.

Every morning in two weeks I walked to Little Tree to meet Trias for lessons. It was always a good start of the day to meet her to learn Indonesian language.

Thank you for the many conversations, I learned a lot about the language and also from Bali/Indonesia and their tradition. Terima kasih.

Tracee Thomson
September 2014

Thank you Cinta Bahasa team, I have had soooooo much fun learning basic Bahasa Indonesia. Every teacher has offered a different and unique way to help me learn fast. I look forward to returning to Bali to put into practice all I have learnt. I feel really confident! A big thank you! See you again.

Adam T Katt
September 2014

Trias is an awesome teacher! She made my class very interesting and fun, and made sure to focus on speaking so I could improve. She let me talk about whatever I wanted, so I was never bored and I got to learn things that aren’t in the book.

Cinta Bahasa should pay Trias a big bonus, haha. There was really nothing bad about my class, I wish I could take her home with me.

Niki Kapoor

I thoroughly enjoyed the course with Pak (guru) Daniel Prasatyo who not only gave the tips but also brought about the issues of discussion that I liked. Course is good and customized learning made it more useful. Thanks guru for your time and support to learn Bahasa. Hope I have improved Indonesian. As a small suggestion, though, if books could also involve key rules of Bahasa Indonesia, that would become a good reference for us in the future as well. Terima kasih banyak.

This was one of the best second language learning experience I have had. The communicative approach used by the teacher really gave me a lot of experience hearing and using the language. The learning was pitched at a good level and well constructed. Some of the words used in the dialogs and texts were missing from the word list/glossary. Overall it was very valuable and worthwhile. Terima kasih banyak.

Daniela Wagner

Yasa was a great teacher. He always came to class prepared and had a well set out plan for every lesson. He would come up with alternative teaching methods to help me understand concepts if I was struggling. I would use him in the future when I’m ready to advance my Indonesia further.

I have learnt a lot of the things I had hoped to know about the language in the short two weeks we have been here. We have had to teachers Winda and Hana who have been the worlds greatest superheroes. It is probably very hard to teach me and my brother and they both deserve special commendment on how on how they did it. I will miss them when I leave!

I’m very happy with the Cinta Bahasa course as the teacher, Pak Yasa, was very helpful, diligent and flexible to accomodate to my level and needs well done! I only hope didn’t bore Pak Yasa too much with all my omong kosong about politics and my opinions. ^_^

Ulan is engaging and patient, excellent characteristics for a language teacher. She has a passion for language that shows in her work. I am not sure if Ulan would be suited to be an astronaut.

I found my private course to be exactly to my liking and just what I needed. The teachers I had Della, Yasa and Daniel, were attuned to my needs. In particular, I needed practice in listening to the spoken word, at normal speed. To my delight, I understood most of what was being said. The conversations were made more interesting because both Daniel and Yasa related stories from their own lives and explained more about Balinese culture, respectively. The mix of three teachers was beneficial-Della, enthusiastic, Daniel and Yasa friendly yet serious. I thoroughly enjoyed each style of teaching.

Kathy Harger
July 2014

I have really enjoyed my lessons with Cinta Bahasa. In 20 hours my bahasa skills have significantly improved and I feel much more confident. Yasa and Pak Tony have been very patient and encouraging. I have also learned a lot about Balinese culture. Terima kasih Cinta Bahasa. Sampai jumpa lagi!

All the staff at Cinta Bahasa have been very helpful and skilled teachers. I have been an online student (Skype) for more than a year and this was my opportunity to work face-to-face for three weeks. Next time I hope I can join a group, at an intermediate level. An outstanding experience which I highly recommend to anyone.

Esther Graf

It was very interesting to learn with Della. She was very friendly and very very patient. She learned me a lot but I have to practice all the things. I will think about learning by skype and I hope to come back one day to meet Della again. Thank you very much for all!

We have had a really great time learning bahasa Indonesia with Dewi, when we started we did not know any Indonesia but now we can communicate well with the locals. Dewi is an excellent teacher and with her past as a school teacher she really knows how to teach the language well. I would recommend Cinta Bahasa to everyone especially if all the teachers are as good as Dewi.

Tiffany White

Saya suka sekali bahasa Indonesia belajar!! The course provided great materials (textbook, flashcards and ITC program) to practice with and keep for further use. Dewi was our instructor guru and was very professional, friendly, approachable and efficient in teaching us. I would strongly recommend her at Cinta Bahasa to anyone wanting to start or broader their language skills and knowledge in Indonesian. Thank you very much!!

Matt Pratley

Learning at Cinta Bahasa was great. Having one on one time with a teacher to guide you at a pace you feel comfortable with is fantastic! There was formal teaching but also a lot of time for conversation which turned the learning and theory into real life. I learn so much in a short time-fantastic! Teachers were fantastic and the facilities also. It’s a shame I only had 2 weeks.

When I first booked this course I wasn’t sure what to expect. But after the first lesson my partner and I felt so relaxed especially as the lessons were at our villa. I cannot express to you how professional Winda is as a teacher and how much fun learning Indonesian was. My partner and I come back to Ubud at least once a year and will always get a tutor.

Studying with Yasa helped me a lot feeling confident. While talking Indonesian. The course structure could not have been more suitable for me. We covered all the basics / I wanted to know and were also flexible enough to talk about my personal interest and work – related topics so that I learned a lot of useful vocabulary beside the regular structure. Thank you very much, Yasa! It has been a pleasure.

Alexandra Kay

Studying with Cinta Bahasa and Yasa has made such a difference to my experience here in Bali. Yasa helped me so much with the language I needed for work and gave me the confidence to ‘give it a go’! I now feel comfortable talking with all the staff at work and am able to provide workshops + training in Indonesian. I hope this will mean that all the skills I’m transferring to the staff at work will be sustainable => and that’s the ultimate goal for volunteering work! Thank you Yasa + Cinta Bahasa Team!

I had fun and enjoyable experience learning with Yasa. In twoweeks of private course, I am able to communicate enough to “start”. I was block for a while unable to make first steps in communication with beautyful Balinese people.

I am certainly still a beginner but my experience in the school, Cinta Bahasa, set me free to simple speak and share, leaving my fears and frustration behind – a thousand step journey star with on step!

I came to Bali at the minute wanting to learn Bahasa Indonesia. Ochie was very accommodating and I started private lessons the day after I arrived here. My teacher was Winda, and she was absolutely fantastic! She was always patient, answered all of my questions and allowed me to work at my own pace. Not only that, her caring and kind nature made me feel very relaxed and before long I felt comfortable having long conversations in Bahasa Indonesia. I highly recommend Winda as a teacher, she is very clever and will do all she can to help you fulfil your goals. Many thanks to Winda and all of the wonderful and friendly staff at Cinta Bahasa.

I found the course very intense and maybe a little too much information for beginner. I thought we moved on before fully understanding or practicing what we had just learnt. That was I didn’t attent the last week of class as I felt I hadn’t fully understood the work up until then and found any new words a phrases over whelming. Ervin was very patient and good. Just to much information to cover and practice.

I enjoyed the classes with Cinta Bahasa. Both teachers we well organized and Ervin did a very professional job taking over the class after Della finished. The course content is really comprehensive and some of our group struggled with the pace. It kept the classes dynamic and interesting but perhaps an opportunity to consolidate previous learning as it progresses would be really good. Overall very beneficial and enjoyable! Terima kasih!

Dana Garner
March 2014

I really enjoyed my course with Ervin. He is a good and patient teacher and is always well prepared for class. Ervin is a skillful teacher as he seems to know when he should review more with us and when the review is enough. The textbook was surprisingly good and the supplemental information or pre-teaching by Ervin was good to keep interest. Thank you.

The other students really added to the experience – enhancing not only the fun but also making it a more dynamic learning process. Highest recommendation – amazing how quickly we learn to speak! Cepat-cepat. Will look forward to using bahasa in the pasar/market, warung and with locals. I will miss coming to class but will carry the memories and language with me always.

Thanks for the nice time that my teacher spent with me, I already know now how to communicate in Indonesian language, of course as usual when you learn a new language you need time to remember and practice, but now thanks to Trias I feel more close to the Indonesian country because I understand. Thanks!

Very nice, we had much fun and guru Della was a good and strict teacher. The Bali people I know here loves to talk with me and are very helpful to correct me if I talk incorrectly. They are happy that I’ve tried to do something about my lousy bahasa Indonesia!

Para mi primer curso de Indonesia, les recomerndo Cinta Bahasa, super buena escuela. La prof Della es muy buena, inracta mucho con cada alumno y siempre con mudra atencion y amor. Hasa la proxima!

This was a review class for me, so much of it was familiar. It was helpful for me to relearn many words and concepts, and to learn some new things. I would suggest more focus on beginning grammar rules, since the workbook requires writing sentences, and more discipline against too much talking over the teacher and other students for better class focus and concentration. Thank you for this opportunity to keep learning bahasa Indonesia!

Saya senang daftar untuk kelas bahasa Indonesia. Semua orang di kelas saya asyik sekali dan guru saya Della tidak bagus. Bercanda, dia lucu sekali! Dia selalu membantu sekali. Kelas kedua terakhir, kami pergi ke pasar dan sedang tawar harga. Sesudah tiga minggu kelas dan latihan saya lebih bagus.

I really enjoyed taking the Beginner Course with Uan. She was an excellent teacher. It was nice to have the option to take small classes so we could learn with other students as well. All of the vocabulary we learned was relevant toour daily lives and makes getting around in Bali much easier.

Ulan is a fantastic teacher. She makes classes fun and enjoyable which helps me to learn faster and keep interest. Ulan always made sure to tailor our classes in a way to help us best use the language in an active way for our daily life. She would explain extra words and phrases that are relevant to us. Loved it!

Very interesting. Satisfied me for the increase of my knowledge. I know it’s already difficult to find students who speak English for a Beginner Course, but I am French and to have the study in English is more difficult for me. But it was fine and fun.

Trias adalah guru yang luar biasa. Dia begitu gembira dia dapat ambil muridnya di sebuah dunia dan tidak kompleks. Sangat efisien, terima kasih.

Untuk seorang guru muda, YASA menunjukkan professionalism baik sekali dan efisiensi baik. Metodenya catatan dan ulangi dalam konteks sempurna. Terima kasih.

Pak Tony begitu kuat untuk mengajar. Hal ini sangat metodis dan menemukan aturan secara efektif. Pak Tony memiliki pengetahuan budaya sangat kaya. Hal ini sangat tidak membosankan untuk bicara.
Terima kasih.

Wow, what a great time here in Ubud. It was quite a short time (2 weeks) but I still think that I have learnt so much and not only beautiful bahasa Indonesia but also about Indonesian culture, traditions, and the way people think over here  I really had an amazing time, everyone was so kind and cheerful. Thanks also to Ochie for recommending me to go to Ubud instead of Kuta or Sanur! Hope we stay in touch. Selamat!

Anna and Tony were both very good teachers. They were both very patient and knowledgeable. I was amazed at the structure of the course and how much information was presented effectively in such a short amount of time. I feel that I not only learned a very strong base of bahasa Indonesia but also learned a lot about the Indonesian culture as well. I was very impressed with Cinta Bahasa and all of the staff and will recommend this school to other friends and colleagues.

Stephanie Anderson

Thank you very much to Cinta Bahasa for a wonderful language course. Not only did my vocabulary and grammar improve, but my confidence to speak Indonesian has increased greatly. Yasa is a great teacher, he is professional in his manner and thorough in content that he covers. I have learnt more with Yasa than I could have ever hoped for. I can now have conversations with my colleagues and understand what happens in meetings. Life and work in Kendari, Sulawesi is much more enjoyable with my bahasa Indonesia. Many thanks!

I have thoroughly enjoyed studying with Cnta Bahasa. I could not hoped to learn more from my lessons here. I have learnt new vocabulary, consolidated previous knowledge and had my confidence boosted dramatically.

Trias accommodated for my language skills and abilities so well. We had great conversations which broadened my horizons. Her knowledge, not only of language, but of world topics and events astounds me and was fundamental to a lot of the learning I did. Thank you Trias and Cinta Bahasa, you run a brilliant language centre and I don’t want to leave! Many thanks!

Thank you so much for my lessons at Cinta Bahasa, I not only learnt a great deal from both Yasa and Trias but I had my confidence in my language skills boosted. I have now returned to Kendari, South East Sulawesi and in my work as a volunteer here, I have been able to have conversations with my colleagues that I would not have been able to have before! I cannot express enough how wonderful the program was, how beneficial it has been and how much of a difference it is going to make to my life here in Kendari. Your language school should be extremely proud of their teachers and program, because of Cinta Bahasa, I will now be able to contribute and make a significant difference to the community of Kendari.

Luckily, I still have half of my language allowance left to complete further training at Cinta Bahasa. I am already looking at my calendar to find a suitable time to return, and will be counting down the days until I do.

With the utmost thanks and appreciation,

I can completely recommend Cinta Bahasa language school as a great place to study. Arie and his class assistant Della are completely supportive and make learning really fun.

Pak Putra is an excellent, patient teacher. I’ve really engaged our conversations and am so grateful to Pak Putra for making them so interesting – we spoke about issues and activities I am passionate about – politics, the environment, diving, etc. So I learnt more about these things while also improving my bahasa. We also had many laughs! Terima kasih Pak Putra!

Terima kasih Pak Tony! I loved learning bahasa with Pak Tony – he is very knowledgeable and skilled at explaining difficult grammatical concepts. His understanding of English also means he can explain things in a very simple, clear way. Thank you!

I had great fun learning bahasa Indonesia with Yasa. Yasa was an extremely patient, understanding and encouraging teacher. He made classes Interesting and tailored them to my needs and interests. I felt very comfortable exploring what I knew about bahasa Indonesia. Yasa did so well to teach me all he could in the limited time available. Would definitely recommend Yasa as a great teacher.

Cinta Bahasa School employs well-trained enthusiastic teachers who are attentive and supportive.

Anna made sure she was challenging me hard each day – it felt difficult to remember all the vocabulary but I am (positively) surprised how much I have knew after just 1 week. Because I am new to working in Indonesia, I really appreciated having conversations about culture – in Indonesian – and specific to Bali. Anna also took the time to teach me vocab related to my work which is super helpful. Terima kasih!
