I just wanted to give you big thanks for your amazing program.  My boys definitely learned more Punjabi than they ever would have learned without Maa Boli. This was the first time that we've had success trying to have the kids become comfortable with punjabi.  I loved the flexibility of the time slots. Your binders are awesome.  The whole experience has been fantastic. Thank you for your dedication.

I cannot recommend MaaBoli enough. Our 2 boys have been doing their online classes for about 2 years now. Before we began, my kids would not speak in Punjabi, they would always reply back in English no matter what. I had tried nearly everything by then. The kids started using simple phrases like "bas" and "nahi" even when playing amongst each other. They're enrolled in Level 3 now and can have an entire conversation in Punjabi (with some English words in it). My mom couldn't be happier, she's always raving about how well they speak now. And it makes me so glad and thankful to hear them speaking Punjabi.

I wanted to let you know that your Level 2 Punjabi classes are amazing! My boys are learning a lot and I wanted to say thank you for providing this opportunity for them. I wanted to share something that happened on our trip during spring break. We were sitting at a restaurant and having dinner, and all of a sudden my boys started speaking Punjabi. It was so neat to see them conversing in Punjabi with each other and us.

If you want your children to learn Punjabi, and if you have the means, definitely choose MaaBoli.  It is a program driven by compassion, positivity, and acceptance.  The instructors are amazing, the administrators are wonderful, and it will be something that your children will look forward to.  The parent guides sent out every week help you participate in your children's fluency, and the cultural education helps round out the program to be more than just language lessons.  This is an incredibly well-run program with educational professionals who know what they're doing.  It's money well-spent to give your children a gift of a lifetime of their maa boli and an education of their culture.

He loves it. I’m shocked. We did our highs and lows and he chose the Punjabi class as his HIGH. He also shared: I’m supposed to call you Mummy ji and Daddy ji. Before going to bed he said, “Good night Daddy ji”. While getting water, he said “this is called pani”. I did not expect such a positive reaction to this class from my kid. Thank you.

Maa Boli is exactly what our generation of parents needed. I grew up speaking Punjabi at home, but my kids were missing that connection. Although we don’t always speak Punjabi consistently at home, I’m hopeful that we’ll get there one day little by little. It doesn’t help that even their grandparents mostly speak English now, so the opportunities to hear and use Punjabi are fewer than they were when I was growing up. This program makes that goal feel achievable. It’s structured and fits into our busy lives without feeling overwhelming. I wish something like this existed when my older ones were little.

Thank you so much for your program! Rheya loves and looks forward to classes each week. She’s becoming so comfortable with random Pinglish sessions…nice to see her growing her skills in such a positive environment. Two of my nephews will be registering for the next session. We have nothing but the best to say about Maa Boli and can’t thank you enough for this initiative.

We speak mostly English at home, and I always carried a bit of guilt that my kids weren’t learning Punjabi properly. I wasn’t sure an online program would work, but Maa Boli completely changed my mind. The teachers are engaging, the lessons are fun, and my son picked up so much more than I expected. He responds to simple questions, and even uses words around the house. It’s made such a difference for our family.

We love Maa Boli! It was easily the best decision we made for our daughter. She’s so motivated to stay ontop of her curriculum and looks forward to Mondays and Thursdays to play “Blooket” with Miss Kiran

We have tried other programs and truly nothing compares! My friend signed her kiddos up too as I recommended it so much. Thank you for creating something like this that busy families can make use of and get Sikhi lessons in a kid friendly way

My daughter used to understand Punjabi but always answered in English. We’d try to encourage her to speak, but she was shy and unsure of herself. Over the last year and a half with Maa Boli, it’s like something has clicked. She’s responding to my questions in Punjabi and even correcting me sometimes! The confidence she’s gained has been incredible. I honestly didn’t think an online class could have this much impact.

I wanted to say thank you for running such an amazing curriculum for kids to learn Punjabi. My boys are actually speaking Punjabi with their grandparents which melts my heart. Thank you for making the classes so engaging.

You have hit the sweet spot of keeping kids engaged with high quality materials, consistency and skills that can be used immediately. LOVE the transition to get started with basic everyday Punjabi, with some English, to more and more Punjabi. Both my boys are learning a ton!!
