About UBuntu Bridge
UBuntu Bridge has taught Xhosa and Zulu language and culture courses
in Corporates, Government departments, NGOs, Schools and to adult
groups from the general public since it was founded by Craig in 2005.
UBuntu Bridge intends to develop accredited courses for mother tongue
African language speakers to teach their own languages as a foreign
language, essentially TEFL, but for Xhosa (TXFL) and Zulu (TZFL).

Our mission
Our bottom line is about positive social impact, as well as financial
sustainability. UBuntu Bridge is developing into an NPC that creates jobs
and uplifts rural and urban communities by empowering first language
Xhosa and Zulu speakers to teach people who want to learn these as
third languages.
UBuntu Bridge uses innovative and creative video, online training and
digital materials to provide learners with fun and engaging ways to learn
Xhosa. They are currently crowdfunding to produce a new, Learn Xhosa
Video Series for online, DVD and mobile platforms for the convenience of
working adults, students and scholars.
