Afrikaans Course in Worthing

It's no problem if you need to take Afrikaans lessons specifically for personal use or to help with your career - our trainers mould the lesson plan to your precise needs.

General and Business courses in Afrikaans differ in style and content: a General course will concentrate on developing confident conversational skills, making short visits to the country less of an exercise in frustration and more about building upon the foundations to your own ends. A Business course will focus on business protocol in Afrikaans, and later on reading and writing will become more important.


Our Afrikaans courses would not be fixed to a specific curriculum, however. You know the specifics of what you will need from your new language, and all you need do is tell your teacher. Perhaps if you are taking a Business course, you may want to focus more on Afrikaans telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. Similarly, General courses can delve deeper into certain areas of the language that you know you will need.


Our Business courses cater to a range of requirements. Many of our clients work for foreign governments and educational institutions, corporations with branches abroad, as well as those who buy and sell around the world. Clients of our General Afrikaans courses include people moving abroad, those entering a Afrikaans family through marriage, those studying for a Afrikaans exam, as well as those who are simply passionate about Afrikaans language and culture.

Info about Worthing


Worthing is a mid-sized seaside town located in West Sussex. With a population of 100,000 it is of a large enough size to provide plenty of attractions, with its multitude of caf�s, restaurants and bars. However, it is not place where you'll ever feel lost in the crowd. The town boasts a stretch of pristine beaches, a great place to unwind as you breathe in the sea air. Take a walk along Worthing Pier and look out across the ocean and along the coast to see the bright lights of Brighton. With this buzzing town and its awesome nightlife just a short train or bus ride away, Worthing really is the best of both worlds - a tranquil seaside town, where the action is never far away - if you want it!


Info about Afrikaans


Originating from 17th century Dutch, Afrikaans is mainly spoken in South Africa and Namibia, though there are communities found throughout Africa. The language was considered a dialect of Dutch until the late 1800s, when it was pronounced an official language in its own right; though even today Dutch and Afrikaans are pretty much mutually intelligible. The language has spread and influenced other cultures: London has its own newspaper in Afrikaans - Die Stem; South African English has many loan words from Afrikaans; and there is a growing scene for musicians singing in the language.

Afrikaans is a rich and appealing language with a fascinating history and complicated social history, though its future as an official language of South Africa could well be under dispute.
