Description |
Fifty years ago, I taught high school math and science in Nepali for two years. When I was leaving, I tested at level 4 on the 0 - 5 scale (5 is high) used by the US Foreign Service Institute. I am planning to visit Nepal in about half a year, so I want to review vernacular and formal conversationa l Nepali.
My initial objective is to regain fluency in vocabulary and grammatical structures I have forgotten and get up-to-date on changes in the past 50 years. I would like three one hour video or audio classes per week, but I may increase that at times. I am retired, so my schedule is fairly flexible. Classes will be a complemented by self-study.
While visiting Nepal, I will be in a wide range of situations including trekking into Limbu and Bhotia-popula ted regions, catching up on news with people I haven’t seen in 50 years, and being a guest of honor in somewhat formal social events with teachers and government officials.
I am flexible, but the ideal teacher would: Be very familiar with the dialect spoken in the vicinity of Sankhuwasabha Jilla, or at least Pradesh #1. Be able to provide linguistics-b ased technical answers to questions about the language Not hesitate to correct my pronunciation , grammar, or style, and—if needed—develo p drills to help me improve

Description |
After taking a trip to Nepal and falling in love with the country, I've been trying to find the right resources to study the language properly. My hope is to return soon (in one year) to live there for a while and focus on Buddhist studies. I'd like to use my year wisely so that I have a good enough grasp on Nepali to be able to then shift to the Tibetan Buddhist texts without confusion.
Though I've attempted to learn a few things on my own, I am a complete beginner. I've heard that many people do not try to learn the Devanagari alphabet in the beginning, and while my priority is to become conversationa lly comfortable for living abroad, I am interested in all aspects of the language as per the advice of my teacher.
I currently have a very flexible schedule and can spend 2-5 hours on learning/imme rsion activities per day. Occasionally work may prevent me from putting in as many hours, but I am motivated and believe that more is more when it comes to the early stages of language learning.
Because I'd like to put in more hours than is financially possible for pure 'classroom time', I'd very much appreciate a teacher who can help support my language study outside of teaching sessions. You thought you'd never hear it said, but please, give me homework!
