Urdu Classes for Kids in Mississauga

Raising kids in Mississauga often means Urdu at home with the grandparents and English everywhere else. Kids Bolo helps close that gap with live online Urdu classes your child joins from home, in a small group of children their own age.

Lessons are designed for children who think in English. Teachers start with both languages side by side, write Urdu in English letters (Roman Urdu) so kids can speak from the first class, and bring in more Urdu as confidence grows.

Mississauga is a big city in its own right, from Port Credit on the lake up to Meadowvale, Churchill Meadows and Malton. Wherever you are in Peel, class happens at home, with no drive on the 401 or 403.

  • Eastern time class options. Our class pages list times that work for families in Ontario, around school and weekend activities.
  • No hiding at the back. Never more than 5 children of a similar age, so your child gets a turn to talk in every class.
  • Join from home. All your child needs is a laptop or tablet and a quiet corner.
