If my available schedule doesn't match yours, feel free to message me 😊 Halo! I’m a native Indonesian speaker with a passion for sharing my language and culture. With a year of teaching experience, I specialize in fun, adaptable conversations—whether you're a beginner or polishing fluency. I love helping students feel confident in real-life chats, from casual slang to formal settings. Teaching energizes me because every student brings new perspectives (and sometimes teaches me too!). Let’s make learning Bahasa Indonesia as enjoyable as sharing a plate of *rendang*! As a teacher, I can describe myself as friendly, enthusiastic and respectful. I will try to make my students feel comfortable in my class, so they will enjoy the lesson and they will be an active and confident student. Class Policy: • Lessons start only after a confirmed booking on italki. • Students must be properly dressed during video lessons. • Any inappropriate behavior will result in immediate class termination & report. My lessons would be like conversation, some texts that I will provide in Presentation slides, discussing about articles & news, and I will give some image files or quizzes to make the class being more fun. I would describe my teaching style as highly adaptable. I do not really prefer one teaching method. Because in my opinion, each student has different studying style, and a good teacher should always adjust their teaching to their audience, the difficulty of the lesson, and so on.

The teacher prepared a lot of materials and was very beginner-friendly. Teacher also encouraged me to make sentences using new vocabulary and to speak up more—it was a very useful lesson.

I am really enjoying learning with Sintia. She’s really helpful at just telling me the words I don’t know and finding things I’m interested to talk about. I enjoy the conversation practice - we talk about interesting things and we laugh a lot. I’d recommend Sintia to anyone to learn bahasa :)
