Afrikaans Tutoring FAQ
Afrikaans is considered a daughter language of Dutch and was originally called Cape Dutch. This is because it was the language spoken by the Dutch settlers of South Africa. It continued to evolve over the years. Approximately 13.5% of South Africans, whether of Dutch heritage or otherwise, speak Afrikaans as their first language. If you're hoping to learn Afrikaans, Varsity Tutors can help you find a fluent Afrikaans tutor to help you along.

Have you found this site by searching for "Afrikaans tutoring near me?" If so, you are on the right track to learning this beautiful language. Because Afrikaans is not as widely studied in the US as many European languages (i.e. German, Spanish, French, and Italian), it may be more difficult to find a qualified Afrikaans tutor on your own. That's why turning to Varsity Tutors is a good first step. We can help you find someone who not only teaches the language, but can meet you when and where it's convenient for you. Varsity Tutors also offers the opportunity for you to study with your tutor online through our Live Learning Platform, which widens your options substantially.
If you were to hear someone speaking Afrikaans, you might notice that there are some words you can understand. That's because American English is made up of words from so many other languages, including Dutch and German. With expert Afrikaans tutoring, you can learn how the language's structure compares and contrasts to English or other languages you might know, and use those comparisons as a jumping off point toward learning Afrikaans grammar.
By studying the language with the aid of a tutor, you have access to someone who can hold conversations with you at exactly your level, challenge you according to your learning style and pace, and spend extra time on the words or concepts that you need to work on a bit more to gain a solid understanding.
Whether you're learning the language on your own, or you're looking for college Afrikaans tutoring, Varsity Tutors can help you find a skilled tutor for your specific needs. Contact us today.
