Overview
 Istana Indonesia Learning Centre
Istana Indonesia is the perfect place where you can learn and improve your Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian language) from the experts. Founded in June 1995, Istana Indonesia has widely known as the ideal place where you can not only learn Indonesian language, but also Sundanese language (the local dialect used in West Java).
Istana Indonesia provides Indonesian language training for those who want to learn Bahasa Indonesia (the Indonesian language) and to develop insights into Indonesian culture, arts, society, education, current events, economic matters, politics, business, law, etc.
Istana (literally means a palace) referred to a beautiful house whose homelike atmosphere accommodated the language learning process in family hospitality.
We have become a multi language center where foreigners can learn Indonesian language/bahasa Indonesia as well as its culture and local language (Sundanese) in the homelike atmosphere, and where Indonesian nationals can learn foreign languages in the same atmosphere. We are moving fast with our business which is not just limited to the language training but also culture and travels.
Our Programs
GENERAL PROGRAM
This program offers an Indonesian language course for those who want to learn to communicate or to improve their communication skills in Bahasa Indonesia. At the end of this program you are expected to understand conversation in commonly used Indonesian sentences and idioms. This class is also appropriate for those who have never learnt Bahasa Indonesia at all.
Basic Level
At this level, we concentrate on increasing the learner’s communicative confidence and on developing vocabulary, while also addressing reading, writing and listening skills. Learners at this level will master basic survival Bahasa Indonesia, covering such subjects as: introductions, telling the time, schedules, family, directions, daily routines and activities, telephoning, giving instructions and health.
Intermediate Level
After learners have mastered the communication, listening, reading and writing skills taught at the Basic level and their vocabulary is satisfactory, they progress to the Intermediate level, where they start learning Indonesian grammar and further develop their vocabulary. They expand their grammatical and lexical knowledge through reading and writing articles and participating in discussions and presentations.
Advanced Level
This level caters for learners who want to learn Bahasa Indonesia in more depth and achieve fluency. Advanced training continues from the Intermediate level and the complexity of the grammar is increased. Media used include radio, television, video, newspapers and magazines.
Another program is our full-time experience. This allows the student to live independently and grow as a person. Both local and out-of-state students are eligible for this program.
Our teaching and learning program
Small classes of 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 person(s) will enable you to get more intensive attention from the teacher and do practice more intensively. We strongly believe that language is a mean of communication. That's why, we take the Communicative Approach as the base of our teaching (and learning) methods, and techniques as reflected on the highly communicative activities applied in the classes. You will be provided with topics, materials, examples, and practices taken from the real communication and to be practiced as a real communication as well.
With the Direct Method, you will be trained to identify and acquire concepts of words and expressions of the Indonesian language/Bahasa Indonesia (including formal and colloquial Indonesian language which is widely used in daily conversation). That way, you will be accustomed to thinking in Indonesian way of thinking, and to producing Indonesian without translating from your native language. To lead you to come to that stage, various teaching aids are used which will also put a lot of fun to your Indonesian Language learning program.
