No preparation needed. You meet your teacher, speak a little Marathi (or try to), and together you figure out the right starting point. No pressure, no commitment.
Conversational Marathi for Maharashtrian families, professionals, and reverse NRI households in Frankfurt and the Rhein-Main region.
Trusted by 500+ NRI families across 7 countries · Free demo, no commitment
Frankfurt’s Indian community skews toward banking, consulting, and the pharmaceutical sector. Many Maharashtrian families here are senior professionals who have been in Germany for a decade or more, with children born and raised in the Rhein-Main area.
These families are often deeply connected to Maharashtra through frequent visits and strong extended family networks. But their children are growing up in German and English environments. The language gap grows with each year.
Whether your child visits Pune or Nashik every year for the holidays, calls naana-naani on video, or is preparing to move to India for school or further education, having a real grounding in spoken Marathi matters.
We focus on the Marathi that actually gets used: family conversations, expressing thoughts and feelings, asking for things, describing experiences. The kind of Marathi that makes a child feel like they belong when they are with family in India.
We work with adults too, including non-Marathi partners who want to learn, and second-generation NRIs who want to reconnect with the language of their parents.
If you have specific goals, like being able to hold a basic conversation before your next trip to Pune, or following what your parents say without asking for translations, we can build a curriculum around that.
The first session is always free. CET afternoon slots are available for Frankfurt families. Reach out through our contact page or book directly to get started.

Justine RebuticaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Speak Marathi is an excellent language-learning school. My teacher, Payal, is incredibly accommodating, patient, and flexible, which makes learning Marathi enjoyable and stress-free. The learning materials are well-structured and easy to understand, even for beginners. I highly recommend Speak Marathi to anyone who wants to learn Marathi effectively and confidently. Rachael NewmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Payal is a wonderful teacher. I really love her teaching. I really appreciate the Speak Marathi program. Subbarao GarlapatiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Speak Marathi is fantastic! They break down the language into bite sized lessons that are well designed - visually appealing and build up well. The program is very functionally oriented - the program is not oriented around having you be able to read Marathi textbooks and know advanced grammar patterns but rather to easily and fluently communicate with others. This is not only something that most people appreciate but also is the way that you see the most tangible results, which keeps your motivation very high throughout the process. I’ve been with Speak Marathi for over a year now and I’ve had two instructors, both of whom are very good. It’s rare to find online teachers that care and put the effort in the whole class. Mee Speak Marathi kadoon khup shik-loh aanee too khup shik-naar sooddha! P.S. A lot of my friends learning other Indian languages such as Telugu wish that there was a program like Speak Marathi for them! Charlotte WatersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Learning with Speak Marathi has been a wonderful experience so far. My one-on-one lessons with Akshata have been highly personalised and interactive, and I've enjoyed discussing the language with her – she's very passionate and always happy to answer my questions! Right from the start, Marathi is taught in a holistic way, focusing on common grammatical structures and patterns that characterise real spoken conversations. This provides a great foundation to build on as your vocabulary expands over time. It also allowed me to follow along with conversations when I visited India for the first time, even though it was quite early in my learning journey. Overall, Speak Marathi has deepened my understanding and appreciation of Marathi, helping me connect with my partner's family on a new level. It's also been lots of fun, which is a nice bonus! Onkar BapatTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We signed up for remote Marathi classes for my daughter. We got setup with their instructor Payal fairly quickly. Payal was a great instructor, very patient and was always flexible in case we had plans and needed to switch the class timings. My daughter learnt the basics of reading writing pretty quickly. Would highly recommend Payal and Speak Marathi to anyone overseas and within India that wants to learn languages. Akshali GandhiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So happy I came across Speak Marathi online! It’s difficult to find good resources for adult language learning and they take a structured approach, while still making it fun and enjoyable. Anolika was a great teacher and I’m grateful for her flexibility around my work hours. I hope to one day rejoin if they ever had US-time zone based tutors! Gemma SawarkarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Speak Marathi makes it so easy to learn! The method of teaching is so well planned that it allows you to understand sentence structures and start making them on your own in no time at all. Incredibly friendly teachers and staff and an overall positive experience at every class. Thank you Speak Marathi! Renzil DsilvaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Wife and I are both from Maharashtra but have been living abroad for more than a 15 years. We miss our home and had to find ways to keep our children connected with our culture. We found that YouTube videos were helpful, but they didn't have the same impact on their speech as a teacher would. That's why we started taking regular lessons with Deepa from Speak Marathi. Deepa is an extremely patient, humble and knowledgeable teacher who plans her lessons in a very structured way. In just about a year, I can see how my children have grown to speak complete sentences in Marathi, tell me some folklore stories and even remind me about any festivals that were celebrated recently—all thanks to Deepa and her hard work! I strongly recommend giving Speak Marathi a try if you're looking for both fun language lessons and an introduction to Indian culture! Sonny MujumdarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wanted my daughter to learn my mother tongue…Marathi. I was lucky to find “Speak Marathi” Aditi and Deepa. Deepa is a very patient teacher and encourages my daughter to learn at her own pace. She gives homework which is a revision of all the work they have done together as well as exercises to be done before the next class. A very systematically designed curriculum! Aditi handles the backend processed abs ensures that billing is done on time, getting payments, scheduling classes, etc. I highly recommend this institute for learning the Marathi language…whether is you Or your kids. They’re the very best! Reach out to me if you need anything else. Thanks. Happy learning.
