Free Trial French was excellent!

I had a one hour free trial in French with Frederic. He is an amazing teacher, very organized, great listener and catered the lesson to my needs. I signed up for a package of classes after my trial because I was very impressed. I highly recommend NaTakallam!

i love Natakallam's mission and work but wish their language partners were trained to be teachers and thus not rely on learners to guide the conversation or persistently insist on homework

The Kurdish Roots of “Woman, Life, Freedom”

Since the start of the ongoing Mahsa Amini Protests, we’ve heard the slogan “Woman, Life, Freedom” travel around the world. In Persian this is “zan, zendegî, âzâdî” (زن, زندگی, آزادی), but the slogan originates in the Kurdish language and the Kurdish struggle for autonomy.
