Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

What happens if I don’t like my first Malay lesson?

With our First Lesson Guarantee, your satisfaction is our priority. If you’re not completely happy with your initial session, we’ll find you another tutor at no extra cost. This ensures you can find the perfect tutor for your learning style and goals.

How much do online Malay lessons cost?

Lesson prices vary depending on a tutor’s experience and qualifications. Each tutor’s profile clearly lists their rates, helping you find an expert who matches your budget and learning objectives.

Are lessons suitable for absolute beginners?

Yes. Our tutors are experienced in teaching all levels, from complete beginners to advanced speakers. They create a personalised plan starting with the basics, gradually building your skills and confidence at a pace that suits you.

Can a tutor help me overcome my fear of speaking?

Definitely. Private tutoring provides a safe and supportive space to practise speaking without judgment. Tutors guide you through real-life scenarios, such as ordering food or asking for directions, helping you build confidence quickly.

How long does it take to learn conversational Malay?

This depends on your starting level and commitment. Consistent lessons with a dedicated tutor can help you reach basic conversational fluency far faster than self-study, while providing tailored guidance every step of the way.

Are the tutors native Malay speakers?

Many of our tutors are native speakers, while others are highly fluent linguists. Their profiles include details on background and language proficiency, making it easy to select the right tutor for your needs.

How do I find the right Malay tutor?

Use search filters to narrow tutors by price, availability, and expertise. Watch introduction videos, read reviews from other students, and message tutors directly to discuss your learning goals before booking.

Will my lessons cover grammar like 'imbuhan'?

Yes. Tutors provide clear explanations of Malay grammar, including the 'imbuhan' system, and give plenty of practice to help you use these structures naturally in conversation.

Can I get help preparing for a trip to Malaysia?

Yes. Tutors can focus on travel-specific vocabulary, cultural etiquette, and practical phrases to help you navigate Malaysia confidently.

How are online lessons different from using a language app?

Unlike apps, live tutoring offers instant, personalised feedback on pronunciation and grammar, tailored to your learning style, with interactive guidance for faster progress.

What qualifications do Tutorful’s Malay tutors have?

All tutors are rigorously vetted, with backgrounds in language teaching, linguistics, or professional translation. Only 1 in 8 applicants are accepted, ensuring you learn from experienced, skilled professionals.
