Adults:

This 12-week introductory course is designed for adults who wish to begin learning Khmer, the official language of Cambodia. Whether you’re planning to travel, connect with Khmer-speaking communities, or explore Cambodian culture more deeply, this course will provide you with a solid foundation in everyday communication and essential language skills.

Throughout the course, you will build practical vocabulary and learn how to form simple sentences, ask and answer basic questions, and engage in short conversations. You will also gain familiarity with Khmer pronunciation and key grammatical structures and vocabulary, providing you with a strong foundation in reading, writing, and speaking Khmer.

As an online participant, you will join the class taking part at our physical location via a Zoom call, and will have the opportunity to ask questions through a Zoom moderator.

Kids:

This 12-week beginner course introduces children to the Khmer language through fun, engaging, and interactive activities. Designed especially for young learners, the course focuses on building basic conversational skills, recognizing the Khmer alphabet, and developing a love for language learning through play.

Each week, children will explore new words and phrases used in everyday life—such as greetings, family, colors, animals, and favorite foods—while practicing simple sentences and polite expressions. Through songs, storytelling, drawing, role-play, and educational games, students will gain confidence in speaking and listening to Khmer in a friendly, supportive environment.
