Welcome to the DIFK Hindi language Academy
About Us
***Our Motto is to teach our kids their mother tongue***
At our Hindi Academy, we are passionate to teach our kids all aspects(understand, conversation, Read, Write) of Hindi language with varied focus.
Our vision is that Kids learn practical Hindi which help them to connect to relatives as well as Indian culture, while having fun. We have every week two Hindi classes: One Hindi class focuses on Understanding & Conversation aspects and another on Reading & Writing. In our classes, we do touch upon several cultural aspects of Indian society and take practical day to day situations which fit to Kids context living here in Germany.
We started our journey in 2017 and it is very satisfying to see how we have impacted the Kids language abilities in a very setady way.

Our Team
Neeraj Arora
Coordinator & Teacher
My name is Neeraj Arora and I came to Germany two decades ago from Gurugram, India. At DIFK, we observed during several social conversations that Kids need systematic support to learn native languages and this led us to institutionalize teaching of various languages slowly and steadily. I come from a Hindi speaking region in India and have affinity towards Hindi language since childhood. My guiding principle has been right from the beginning, to make the interested Kids learn the language no matter what it takes. It has been a pleasure and a learning experience to lead this effort of teaching Kids. I feel proud and emotional sometimes when I see Kids showcasing the Hindi language skills. With the help of passionate teaching team and support of parents, I am sure we shall go a long way from here.
Amar
Teacher
I am Amar and I come from Bangalore, India. I have been living in Germany since 2001. Before I graduated as an Engineer, I spent 12 years in ICSC affiliated school. ICSC offers one of the best school curriculum in India. These 12 years enforced the strong foundation for language studies and the passion to pass this onto the next generation. Hence, I have been teaching Hindi since 2019 to Indian children of all ages who are growing up in Germany. Knowing a language does not qualify a person to teaching it. Before I started teaching online, I studied how to teach Hindi and prepared my own notes using various books, which are very easy to understand. I always tailor-make classes to suit my students and their individual needs. To enable my students to feel really comfortable with the language I also pace myself accordingly. I put absolutely everything into my classes as I am a very enthusiastic and passionate teacher. I teach Hindi because I genuinely love it. For me, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing students improve over the last year. I still know we have a lot of work ahead in front of us.

Gayatri Pai
Teacher
I am Gayatri Pai hailing from Bangalore and living in Germany since 6 years now. I am a graduate Dentist trying to help not only myself but also the new Generation in touch with our roots here in Germany. What better way can it be than learning our national Language ! I can speak four other Indian languages and it gives me immense pleasure to teach Hindi to the equally enthusiastic Kids . In our classes we teach not only Hindi as a language but everything related to cultural and national aspects of our India through the language.
