The Challenge

Does This Sound Like Your Family in New York?

You left Kerala with dreams — and you built a beautiful life in New York. But somewhere between the subway commutes and 60-hour work weeks, you realised your children are growing up without speaking Malayalam. It breaks your heart.

You want them connected to their roots, their grandparents, their culture. But there are no Malayalam schools near you in New York City, and driving across Brooklyn or Queens after school is simply impossible.

🚫
No Malayalam Classes Nearby

Most Malayalam cultural organisations in NY offer only occasional events — not structured, consistent learning.

🚕
NYC Commute Makes It Impossible

Driving kids to weekend classes in NYC traffic after a full work week is exhausting — and often simply not an option.

Dual-Income Family, Zero Spare Time

With two careers, school runs, and activities, adding a weekly class out of the house feels overwhelming.

💬
Children Born in the USA With No Malayalam Exposure

Your child understands a few words but cannot read, write, or hold a conversation in Malayalam — yet.

What Parents Say

What Parents in New York Are Saying About Malayalam Classes

★★★★★

My daughter was born in Queens and had never spoken a word of Malayalam. After just three months at Decode Malayalam, she called her grandmother in Thrissur and had a full conversation. I cried happy tears. The teachers are so patient and the online format is perfect for our busy New York life.

★★★★★

We live in Long Island and I'd tried everything — YouTube videos, apps, even WhatsApp lessons from relatives. Nothing stuck. Decode Malayalam is structured, consistent, and the teachers genuinely care. My son now reads Malayalam independently. Worth every penny for our NRI family.

Do you offer 1-on-1 Malayalam tutor sessions in New York?
+
Yes. In addition to our small-batch group classes (maximum 5 students), Decode Malayalam also offers 1-on-1 Malayalam tutor sessions for New York learners who want personalised, accelerated learning. Private tuition is particularly popular among adults in New York who want to learn spoken Malayalam quickly for professional or personal reasons.
My child was born in the USA and doesn't know any Malayalam. Can they still join?
+
Absolutely. Many of our students in New York are second-generation Malayalis born in the USA who have had zero previous exposure to the language. Our beginner-level course starts from absolute scratch — the very first lesson introduces the Malayalam alphabet with no assumptions of prior knowledge. Our teachers are experienced at working with children for whom English is the first language.
What platform do you use for online Malayalam classes?
+
All Decode Malayalam classes are conducted live on Zoom, which most New York families are already familiar with from school and work. No special software installation is required — just a device (laptop, tablet, or iPad) and a reliable internet connection. Classes are interactive with screen sharing, digital whiteboard use, and breakout rooms for practice activities.
Is there a free trial class for Malayalam classes in New York?
+
Yes — we offer a completely free demo class for all new families in New York. This is a live, interactive session with a real Decode Malayalam teacher, not a pre-recorded video. During the demo, your child's level is assessed, the curriculum is explained, and you get to experience our teaching style firsthand. There is no obligation or payment required to attend the demo class.
Do you teach spoken Malayalam or only reading and writing?
+
We teach all four skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Our spoken Malayalam classes in New York are particularly popular among adults and teenagers who want to converse fluently with family in Kerala. Our reading and writing programme is the first choice for younger children who need a structured foundation in the Malayalam script. You can choose the focus based on your needs.
Do you serve families in New Jersey and Connecticut as well?
+
Yes — Decode Malayalam serves the entire New York Tri-State area including New Jersey (Edison, Jersey City, Parsippany, Piscataway, Plainsboro, Marlboro) and Connecticut (Stamford, Hartford, Bridgeport, New Haven). Since classes are fully online, any family in the EST timezone can join our Malayalam classes. We have active student communities from both NJ and CT who attend our New York timezone batches.
Is there a certificate after completing the Malayalam language course?
+
Yes. Upon successful completion of each level, students receive an official Decode Malayalam Course Completion Certificate. This certificate documents the level completed and the skills acquired — a meaningful credential for your child's academic and cultural portfolio, and a wonderful keepsake of their language learning journey.
What if my child misses a Malayalam class?
+
We understand that New York family schedules can be unpredictable. All classes are recorded and made available to enrolled students within 24 hours of each session. For missed classes, we also offer makeup sessions subject to availability. Our policy is flexible because we know that life in New York — with work, school activities, and other commitments — means occasional scheduling conflicts.
