As someone who has been trying to learn Somali for a long time and having hit a plataeu, I am so glad I have got the course. I am on Module 2 and so far the course has been amazing! The lessons are well structured and I feel that I have consolidated a lot of grammar with new vocab Alhamdullilah. There are even explanations on the differences between dialects, which has always tripped me up! Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to learn Somali from scratch, or someone who wants to consolidate/improve their Afsoomaali!
