Living in Malang, Indonesia

I am a native speaker of Indonesian and Javanese. I have experience as a teacher since 2013 until now. In 2018, I went abroad to teach Indonesian to non-native speakers. Not only teaching, but I'm also writing a play script and screenplay. I'm a coffee enthusiast and book lover. I had taught students from the US, UK, Russia, Australia, Thailand, Ukraine, and China. I met many kinds of students, either by gender or age. So, I always adapt my teaching approach based on my student characteristic. I didn't use translation during the lesson. I try to explain using the lesson's language to send the materials. By doing so, my students have a whole experience with the target language. But, I always give an exception when my student needs a space for translation.

I highly recommend Alfanul’s classes. Fun yet demanding, so you do learn a lot. Alfanul has a very clear pronunciation, which is very helpful to learn the correct way of saying Indonesian words, and you will start having basic conversations from your first Indonesian class.

Mas Alfan is an excellent Bahasa Indonesia, I would definitely recommend him to others who are learning Bahasa Indonesia. We had a very fun conversational class and he helped correct the errors I made by writing the comments in the chatbox. This was very helpful for me and I very much appreciate this method of learning as it allows me to see the correct way of pronouncing or spelling things. He is also a certified Indonesian teacher and teaches Bahasa Indonesia to Indonesians as well as to non-native speakers. This makes him more than qualified to teach proper grammar and can explain clearly how the Indonesian language is constructed. I would definitely take another class with him. Terima kasih banyak Mas Alfan, saya senang sekali kelas hari ini. Semoga sehat selalu dan sampai jumpa lagi!

Mas Alfan is a great and knowledgeable teacher. He was able to tailor the lesson on the spot to my specific needs and goals and gave some great book recommendations. It is clear that Mas Alfan is dedicated to teaching Indonesian both inside and outside of the italki platform. I look forward to booking more lessons with Mas Alfan!
