Hi, all.

I have a son in Manila from a previous relationship who is 7 years old. I'd love to surprise him next time I visit him by speaking Tagalog to a good standard.

I pick up languages very quickly - I'm fluent in Thai both speaking and reading / writing.

I'm based in the Midlands near Northampton.

So if anyone would like to be my teacher please let me know:)

Thanks

Stuart

I'd highly recommend the Rosetta Stone package.

instruments like tagalog-english dictionaries and books are very helpful and useful too :) Good luck!

Hello! :Wave:

My fiance used to learn Tagalog using Pimsleur Tagalog Audio Lessons. He downloaded it in his computer and listen to it when he gets free time. If this link works then download it and listen to the lessons for you to be able to use some basic Tagalog sentences and surprise your son in future. I hope this helps! :)

the only word i know in tagalog is umalis ka na, em says it all the time to me, and blows me a kiss afterwards, she tells me it means i love you so much:)

Nah, it means "Oh are you' still here" :D
Leave now.

Better to soften it a little by adding naman
"Umalis ka na naman" ( Please leave now )
