What HaitiHub Learners Are Saying
This is a fabulous course. My intention was to learn a few basic things for an upcoming trip to Haiti in February. The course is so well done that I’m now keen to try and be a little more functional when I go. I’d love to have a bit of the language so when I meet the two girls I sponsor there, they can teach me!
It is motivating and very well thought out and done. It is also a good source of information for preparations for travel and for developing one’s attitude for positive mission ministry. It has far exceeded my expectations of what an introductory language course could do.
Now I can speak with my fellow Haitians and have conversations with them. It connects me with them and I love that. Also, I feel that I am more in touch with my Haitian roots when I am able to speak the same language as everyone there.
There is no better resource for English speakers for learning the basic rules of the Haitian Creole language than HaitiHub. Everybody that asks me, “How did you learn Creole so fast?”, I tell them part of it is that I spent a lot of time on it, but it’s also because HaitiHub gave me a such a great start – after completing the course I knew how sentences were structured and I could just plug in new words as my vocabulary expanded.
I didn’t realize how excited I would be to actually finish – it has been a rewarding experience. I find myself “thinking” Creole! Haha I seriously sit around trying to think of how to say things and am amazed at how much HaitiHub has taught me. Looking forward to going through it again to strengthen my Creole. Thanks again for all that you have done. May God continue to bless what you are doing! Mesi anpil!
I am really looking forward to traveling to and volunteering in Haiti. I am confident that HaitiHub has armed me with the tools I need to communicate more effectively with those I am going to serve. I have experienced a greater ability to connect more deeply to the Haitian culture that is ever present in the Haitian Diaspora of NYC. Not only can I communicate better with my friends, I can also understand more of the lyrics to my favorite konpa songs!
