Filipino language classes in Singapore

Filipino, based on Tagalog, is spoken across the Philippine archipelago and throughout Singapore’s Filipino community. Conversation-led lessons get you talking early, with grammar and vocabulary introduced as you need them. Learn it for family, for work, or for the people you will be able to talk to.

Why Lingo

Trusted where the standard is highest.

Small groups of max. 8

Never more than eight students, so you speak in every lesson and your teacher hears every answer.

Official testing for MCCY & MFA officers

Lingo is an official test for MCCY and MFA officers. We take pride in the quality of our courses and assessments, and that expertise goes into every programme we deliver.

Who it is for

Learn Filipino for the reason you have.

Business professionals

Meetings, email and negotiation in the register colleagues really use, plus the Filipino for clients, suppliers and presentations.

Leisure travellers

Order, ask the way and hold a real conversation on your next trip, with the everyday Filipino that hotels, markets and taxis run on.

Language enthusiasts

Go past memorised phrases into the grammar behind them, so you can read, watch and follow the culture in Filipino rather than a translation.

How you will learn

A small class, a real conversation.

Max. 8

Small enough that you speak in every lesson.

Native teachers

Learn the language as it is really spoken.

CEFR pathway
