Hindi tutors for students in South Africa
Lessons are online and one to one, with native Hindi speakers based in India. You are not limited to whoever happens to teach Hindi near you — which, in most places, is often nobody.
Why people in South Africa learn Hindi
South Africa's Indian community is over 150 years old, and much of the language was lost across generations. Learners here are often reclaiming something rather than starting fresh, which is a different emotional experience and worth a tutor who understands it.
Lesson times in South Africa
Our tutors teach on Indian time. Converted to local time where you are, that means lessons run from about 05:30 to 18:30. You do not have to work this out yourself — the booking page converts every slot into your own timezone automatically, and shows both times side by side so there is no confusion.

Common questions
No, and we would rather say so plainly. Our tutors live in India and teach online over video. In practice that is an advantage: you get a native speaker who uses the language every day, rather than whoever is available locally.
Lessons start at $6, roughly 96 ZAR at today's rate. Every price on this site converts to your own currency automatically, using live exchange rates. Most tutors offer a trial lesson.
Not to start. Plenty of students learn to speak first and add reading later. If you do want the script, our free alphabet guide covers every letter, and most learners read simple words within six weeks.
