✍️ Learn to Write in Amharic (አማርኛ)

Turn Words Into Art — Write Fidel with Skill, Beauty, and Confidence

Writing in Amharic isn’t just about communication — it’s about participating in one of the world’s oldest continuous literary traditions. The unique Ge’ez script (Fidel) makes Amharic writing visually stunning and culturally profound. Whether you’re jotting down a quick note, composing a heartfelt letter, or reading poetry, writing Fidel connects you directly to centuries of Ethiopian history and expression.

🌟 Why learn to write in Amharic?

  • For second-generation Ethiopians, it’s a powerful way to honor and carry forward family heritage, reading old letters or inscriptions that grandparents proudly wrote in Fidel.

  • Tourists and expats who can write Fidel find themselves welcomed warmly by locals — even small attempts to write names or short greetings leave a lasting impression.

  • For investors and foreign employees, knowing how to read and write signage, menus, and contracts makes life in Ethiopia smoother and shows deep respect for local culture.

  • It lets you enjoy Ethiopian literature, song lyrics, and church hymns in their authentic script.

🖊 How we teach writing in Amharic:

  • Start with stroke order and direction: We guide you on how each Fidel character is built, so your writing is neat, balanced, and beautiful — not just legible.

  • Handwritten practice: Unlike typing, writing by hand cements your memory of characters and their shapes, while also preparing you for reading handwritten signs or personal notes.

  • Word building: Once you know base symbols, we quickly move to writing common words and short sentences, giving you real-world application from day one.

  • Personalized corrections: Live classes mean teachers see your writing in real time and offer tailored tips on form and flow.

  • Creative writing: As you advance, you’ll learn to write short messages, greetings, even simple stories or proverbs, bringing your new skills to life.

🌿 Writing Fidel isn’t just technical — it’s artistic.
We’ll help you develop not only fluency, but also pride and joy in seeing your thoughts beautifully appear in one of humanity’s most elegant scripts.


 

 

✍️ Learn to Write in Afaan Oromoo (Qubee)

Clear, Modern, and Empowering — Master Written Oromo Communication

Writing in Afaan Oromoo with Qubee, its Latin-based alphabet, is straightforward yet profoundly meaningful. Qubee was officially adopted in the 1990s, making written Oromo both a political and cultural milestone — a tool of identity, unity, and modern expression for tens of millions of speakers.

🌟 Why learn to write in Afaan Oromoo?

  • For diaspora Oromo, it’s a crucial way to preserve language at home, share stories, and keep cultural roots alive across generations.

  • Foreign employees and investors who can fill forms, write local names, or send short notes in Oromo build trust and rapport quickly.

  • Tourists who can label photos, jot market phrases, or write small thank-you notes in Afaan Oromoo gain authentic, memorable connections.

  • Writing Qubee also opens access to newspapers, websites, and social media in Oromo — staying informed directly from local perspectives.

🖊 How we teach writing in Oromo:

  • Letter formation: We ensure your handwriting of consonants and vowels is clear and standardized, using lined practice sheets and guided examples.

  • Word practice: Early on, we combine letters into high-frequency words — greetings, market vocabulary, family names — so you see immediate progress.

  • Functional writing: Learn to fill out forms, write short instructions or reminders, and understand everyday written materials you’d encounter in Oromo-speaking areas.

  • Feedback in real time: Live lessons mean instructors correct your writing instantly, showing you how to adjust shapes or spacing.

  • Build to sentences: From short notes to simple paragraphs, you’ll grow the confidence to express complete thoughts in written Oromo.

🌸 Qubee isn’t just letters on a page — it’s a living celebration of Oromo stories, ideas, and dreams.
With us, you’ll gain the practical ability to write anything from personal letters to professional memos with clarity and pride.


 

 

✍️ Learn to Write in Tigrigna (ፊደል)

Embrace the Beauty and Nuance of Written Tigrigna

Writing Tigrigna using the Fidel script is both a link to thousands of years of shared cultural heritage in the Horn of Africa and a vibrant skill for daily communication. Whether for family, faith, or business, the ability to write Tigrigna fluently strengthens bonds and opens countless doors.

🌟 Why learn to write in Tigrigna?

  • For second-generation Tigrigna speakers, writing Fidel keeps you intimately connected to your parents’ or grandparents’ letters, community notices, and handwritten blessings.

  • Foreign professionals working in Tigrigna-speaking regions gain respect and build deeper partnerships by being able to read and write local correspondence.

  • Travelers who can scribble thank-yous or place names in Fidel find interactions become richer and more meaningful.

  • Writing also enables direct enjoyment of Tigrigna songs, poetry, and traditional sayings that are deeply tied to script and sound.

🖊 How we teach writing in Tigrigna:

  • Foundational strokes: We start by teaching precise ways to shape each Fidel character, so your handwriting is consistent and attractive.

  • Building words and meanings: Practice writing meaningful words right from the start, not just isolated letters, so every exercise feels relevant.

  • Everyday literacy: Fill forms, jot local prices, write short letters — all with real-world usefulness.

  • Live corrections: Our native-speaking teachers watch your writing live, offering specific tips to refine your style and correct errors on the spot.

  • Expressive writing: As your skill grows, try writing traditional blessings, short proverbs, or even simple dialogues, bringing Tigrigna’s warmth and wit onto the page.

🌿 Learning to write Fidel in Tigrigna is learning to share stories the way families have for centuries.
With patient guidance and joyful practice, you’ll turn writing from a challenge into a cherished skill.
