Are you interested in learning the Tibetan language? Do you read the English transliteration of Tibetan buddhist prayers and wish you could understand what you are reading in its original form?

If the answer is “Yes,” then we at Gyalshen Institute invite you to join our Beginners’ Tibetan Class. Many feel overwhelmed by the prospect of learning classical written Tibetan.  These misgivings are unfounded. Over the course of 12 weeks, students will progress from learning the alphabet to forming complex sentences. 

Lhasey Wangmo has extensive experience in teaching the  Tibetan language. It is said that her teaching style is rigorous yet fun.

We hope that you will join us  in taking this first step to learn the Tibetan language – a step that will widen and deepen your understanding of Tibetan Buddhist practice.
