Tribe Features

Our Level 1 content is designed for absolute beginners.  We have had children and octogenarians  (80 year olds) successfully enjoy and complete our courses.  If you don't know any Xhosa or are are mostly starting should def start at Level 1. If it is too basic for you, just move to the assessment for that level and then to the next level..

We currently have 5 levels of Xhosa courses and an open level of fun content including movies, songs, rugby commentary, etc. So unless you are fully fluent, there is always something you can learn, or revise.

We have many people join our courses who have studied Xhosa before, and they all say they found our courses and materials the most practical and well structured.  

So they often get benefit from starting at Level 1 and even if they move quickly, they find foundational elements vey empowering.

You can always look at the assessment for a level to see if you are ready for it, or the one before!  

Each level has summaries and assessments that show what you should know, understand and be able to use before moving on to the next level.

You can always look at the assessment for a level to see if you are ready for it, or go back to the one before!

If you don't know any Xhosa or are are mostly starting should def start at Level 1. 

And if you think you are ready for Level 2, then make sure you can ace the Level 1 assessment!
