Learn the language of your ancestors

Develop. Grow. Succeed.

Language is at the centre of all cultures. Feel closer to your ancestors by beginning your Samoan language journey and learning Samoan. Living overseas we can often feel disconnected to our Samoan culture. This can leave a feeling of inadequacy or lack of belonging and identity. Stop feeling like you are missing something or that you are not enough. Make the move to feel closer to your Samoan identity.

Simple Samoan

Go at your own pace

I hated learning about verbs and sentence structures and all the technical side of English. Why would I want to know that when I am learning Samoan? If you just want to know how to pronounce the words and simple phrases then this course is for you. The workbook shows you the written form of the phrases while the audio gives you the pronunciations. That is all you need to learn the basics of Samoan. Be more confident in your Samoan in less than a month.
