  • Description


    My proficiency level in tagalog is begginer. I have purchased two books to study tagalog and a dictionary, but I am having a hard time with the verbs and tenses. I'm learning Tagalog primarily because I love to learn other languages, but my wife is a filipina and speaks tagalog. She works full time and doesn't have much time to teach me the rules and concepts of the tagalog language. I learn how to pronunciate and have aquired a decent amount of vocabulary, but still feel like I'm not going anywhere. I would like to speak and teach tagalog to my children, I think it is better for them now to learn while they are young. I have subscribed to the TLC and am watching tagalog movies. I know to learn a language the most efficient way is to submerge yourself in the culture and the language where your are forced to speak and listen, but this is dificult to do because my wife is not a patient teacher, though she tries. It is much easier to speak english. I'm willing to commit 3-5 hours a week, if it is possible with the instructor. Some of the things I am looking for is a instructor with some experience teaching adults and is easy to get along with, I'm not a slow learner but I will require some patience. Also, an instructor who is native to the Phillipines and the culture, and give overall well-rounded lessons. I look forward to progressing in my skills with my new instructor and the experience of a new freind.
    Than k You
