About Ruth Vania

----------

I'm Ruth Vania. Indonesian and Korean language teacher. My hobby is communicating with people and telling stories. Starting from my interest in East Asian culture, I began to learn Japanese, Korean and Chinese. I have experience teaching Japanese. So I decided to do something new by teaching Korean. I have been teaching Korean (basic-intermediate) for over 4 years and got a TOPIK 2 certificate.

My next goal in 2025 is to become a Chinese teacher. Currently, I am still at HSK level 2 but in 2022 I will reach a higher level in Chinese. By learning a language, I was able to connect with so many people that I never even thought I could connect with them. They teach culture and lifestyle which I find very interesting.

In fact...

(not fun if I say it now... see you in Indonesian language class, I can't wait to meet you)

----------

不聞不若聞之,聞之不若見之,見之不若知之,知之不若行之;學至於行而止矣。──孔子

----------

Not having heard something is not as good as having heard it; having heard it is not as good as having seen it; having seen it is not as good as knowing it; knowing it is not as good as putting it into practice.

----------

I apply this quote in the classes I teach.

The quote comes from Xunzi. Xun Kuang was a Chinese Confucian philosopher who lived from 312-230 BC. His work was collected into a set of 32 books called Xunzi, by Liu Xiang in around 818 AD. There are block copies of these books that are nearly 1100 years old.

The 8th book is entitled Ruxiao ("The Teachings of the Ru"). The quote above is from Chapter 11 of that book. In Mandarin the quote is:

不聞不若聞之,聞之不若見之,見之不若知之,知之不若行之;學至於行而止矣。──孔子

Translate:
Not hearing something is not as good as hearing it; hearing is not as good as seeing it; seeing it is not as good as knowing it; knowing it's not as good as practicing it.

If you’re at all curious about the world beyond your own day-to-day routine, speaking Indonesian can upgrade your life by increasing opportunities for career, living, travel, friendship, adventure and love. The more languages you speak, the bigger your world becomes.

Speaking Indonesian (or Bahasa Indonesia as it’s also known) gives you access to the world of over 160 million speakers across South-East Asia. Among them, only 23 million speak it as their mother tongue, but for the other 140 million, Bahasa Indonesia is the lingua franca of the entire archipelago.

Indonesian is a standardized form of Malay, one of the most widely-spoken languages in the Austronesian language family. When Indonesia declared its independence from the Netherlands in 1945, Malay was chosen as the official language. The country itself is spread across thousands of islands and hundreds of different languages. Standardized Malay, redubbed Bahasa Indonesia, ties the archipelago nation together.

There is basically no cross-over between English and Indonesian in terms of vocabulary or grammar, but the language is still relatively easy to pick up. With a small vocabulary and simple spelling, Bahasa Indonesia may be the easiest non-Indo-European language for a native English speaker to master.

Indonesian is the most widely spoken Austronesian language. Understanding it will give you a head start if you want to also learn any of the other languages spoken in South-East Asia and Oceania, like Tagalog, Maori, or Hawaiian. Because Indonesian uses the same alphabet as English, it’s a good place to start if you want to become acquainted with the dominant language family of the Pacific islands.

Having a little Indonesian in your conversational repertoire will open up the world to you on multiple levels:

1. For Business
Being bilingual isn’t just good for your resumé, it can change your career. As the lingua franca of the world’s fourth most populous nation, knowing some Indonesian can be extremely advantageous for anyone doing business in that region of the world. Indonesia is Southeast Asia’s largest economy and a rapidly developing industrial nation. Trade between the U.S. and Indonesia totals in the billions every year. Because so few non-Indonesians speak Bahasa Indonesia learning the language can give you a rare skill and make you an in-demand specialist.

2. For Traveling
Java, Borneo, Bali and the 13,463 other islands that make up the Indonesian archipelago offer the textbook definition of vacation getaway. In terms of both the natural environment and culture, Indonesia is one of the most diverse places on earth. White sands beaches, coral reefs, emerald seas, tropical rainforests and volcanoes draw millions of divers, surfers and hikers every year. The 300 unique cultures that call Indonesia home offer a staggering range of wonders to experience, from temples to festivals to really good cuisine. When you can speak Indonesian the country opens up to you in ways that monolingual foreigners could never even guess.

3. Living Abroad – When you speak Indonesian well enough to travel without a phrasebook in hand, the idea of staying longer in Indonesia can become tempting. The capital city, Jakarta, offers opportunities for students looking for a semester abroad and professionals looking for new opportunities in a vibrant and rapidly-growing economy, while quieter corners of the archipelago are tempting destinations for retirees in search of low prices and warm climates.

4. Brain Training
Even if you decide to only learn Indonesian as a hobby, knowing multiple languages will keep your brain healthy and nimble, even in old age. This is because knowing another language creates another network of connections among your neurons. The higher your neural interconnectivity, the better your memory and problem-solving skills.

5. Indonesian Culture, Unfiltered –
Indonesia is home to a fascinating combination of cultures from two continents and hundreds of indigenous traditions, sometimes existing side-by-side, but just as often mixed into some new hybrid. Whether you want to get into Gamelan and Kroncong music, understand the stories told in Wayang shadow puppet theater, study the martial arts Pencak Silat or Tarung Derajat, or learn how to really cook rendang, speaking Indonesian will let you participate more directly. Knowing the language will also give you unfiltered access to Indonesian literature and cinema. And if you have Indonesian roots, learning the language will help you to illuminate your heritage.
