Cinta Bahasa in Ubud, Bali, offers small-group and private courses in Bahasa Indonesia / Indonesian language to foreigners visiting or living in Indonesia. Students not only receive a textbook and learning materials, but are also given tasks to perform in the community.
Ubud is known worldwide as a place that is very popular with foreign and domestic tourists. Behind this, however, is the fact that many foreigners want to learn Bahasa Indonesia while they are here.
