Learn Hindi Online - 5 Great Hindi Teachers for Your Children
Are your kids interested in learning Hindi online? Learning Hindi is so much more than just the acquisition of an additional language.

Learning one's mother tongue is a great way to connect to your culture, heritage and people. Here are 5 great Hindi teachers whose online courses you need to try if you live outside India. A few of them offer off-line courses too!
1. Hindi by Reena: Reena Bhansali
Reena Bhansali runs HindibyReena, an online resource for parents and children around the world. Reena created HindibyReena after 10 years of research working with children. The classes are perfect for children living outside India and multi-cultural families who want their kids to stay connected to their roots.
Says Reena, "Having grown up in both India and in the US, I realized that many South Asian parents living abroad needed help teaching their kids Hindi/Urdu. They spoke English so well, it became the natural language at home — making it challenging to pass on their mother language to their kids. So I set out on my own and created a detailed syllabus that is effective, fun, easy to do and engaging for today's child. Having done corporate jobs with Barbie, Disney, Hot Wheels, etc. I knew I had my finger on the pulse of what kids wanted. Today, I have countless students who can not only have conversations with their grandparents — they can tell stories, read and write, and feel confident in doing so."
