This course is perfect for learners who need support at home and want to grow their Afrikaans skills one step at a time.

The Science Behind It:
When children learn and regularly hear a second language like Afrikaans, their brains grow stronger in areas responsible for memory, listening, and problem-solving. These cognitive benefits extend beyond language — improving concentration, learning ability, and even social skills.
