About Course
Set your child up for success in Afrikaans with our Grade 6 Afrikaans online extra lesson programme — that strengthens comprehension, builds vocabulary, and develops a solid understanding of key language (taal) rules. This course is perfect for learners who need support at home and want to grow their Afrikaans skills one step at a time.
Afrikaans can feel overwhelming when you don’t hear or use it regularly — but just a few minutes a day of listening and learning can lead to meaningful progress. Our bite-sized, easy-to-follow video lessons are designed to make the language more accessible and enjoyable, helping your child build confidence while reinforcing what’s taught in school.

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.
