My name is Lashawnda. I decided to take a few Haitian Creole classes with Swans because my husband is Haitian and I wanted to surprise him and be able to communicate more with his family and friends. After about 10, classes, I learned I have learned so much! I can now ask my husband and his family or friends basic questions and respond to everyday greetings, like “Bonjou, kijan ou ye? Mwen bien. Ki non ou?” Also I have learned some phrases that help me to communicate better with my Haitian customers. I look forward to showing my husband how much I have learned, and he is very impressed with how much I know. Swans is a great teacher. I highly recommend him if you are looking to learn Haitian Creole.
How to Start Speaking Essential Haitian Creole Fast with 2 intensive conversation classes:
a Case Study with my Miami-based Student who took 2 practice Haitian Creole conversation classes between January 21 and January 24, 2026
Max found my content via ChatGPT because he was trying to learn Haitian Creole sentences. He went on my website and he got in touch with me. On January 21st 2026, we had the free Haitian Creole class designed to make him start speaking Haitian Creole immediately. That free Haitian Creole conversation class lasted over 30 minutes.
Step 1: The free Haitian Creole conversation class on Zoom.
We schedule a free Haitian Creole class on Zoom, so I could introduce him to my method. During that free class, I taught him how to pronounce and build over 10 Haitian Creole sentences.
During this class, I taught him how to say “What is your name?” in Haitian Creole. I helped him pronounce each word separately so he could fully understand what he was saying.
I also corrected his pronunciation in Haitian Creole, explaining to him why he would mispronounce some Haitian Creole words.
Step 2: The first paid class of Haitian Creole Conversation, he practiced and pronounced and understood over 20 Haitian Creole sentences with me.
We had our first paid class on January 24. We went over similar sentences. Max wanted to veer into more grammar, but I told him that my method is built on making him master specific sentences, and once he understood how to make one sentence, then he could create new sentences.
I helped him pronounce each word separately so he could fully understand what he was saying. I also corrected his pronunciation in Haitian Creole, explaining to him why he would mispronounce some Haitian Creole words.
During that class, I went through the conversation drill with him. I made him repeat a few sentences several times, and I also made him build new sentences on the fly in Haitian Creole.
He received a video recording of the conversation class and the chat content to continue studying on his own.
I also recorded that class and sent it to him, so he can continue to practice by himself by watching the video of the class. This is important if you want to start speaking Haitian Creole fast.
The results: On January 31, 2025, Max told me that he was able to have a 3-sentence conversation in Haitian Creole.
- He was able to ask “how are you in Haitian Creole”
- When asked how he was, he was able to answer the question in Haitian Creole.
- And he was able to ask the person “how is your mother”
In other words, with the less than 2 hours of actual Haitian Creole practice with me, and some extra time reviewing the video of the class on his own, Max went from being unable to create a sentence in Haitian Creole to being able to maintain a simple, yet important mini-conversation in Haitian Creole.
I told Max, “The best way to see your progress is to go and use those Haitian Creole sentences to speak with actual Haitian people in real life”
An app like Duolingo can tell you that you’re learning…to keep you on the app. An average teacher who focuses on grammar can also tell you that you’re learning. This is biased feedback.
But the ultimate feedback is your ability to actually communicate and maintain basic yet essential conversations in Haitian Creole with Haitian people in real life.
This is the real-life test. It’s unbiased because it comes from actual people where you get the best feedback: being able to understand and to be understood when you speak Haitian Creole.
Learning Haitian Creole grammar exclusively is like learning the rules of basketball without ever touching a basketball and going to a basketball court. You might know the rules, but you can’t actually play basketball.
I also told Max that learning Haitian Creole grammar exclusively is like learning the rules of basketball without ever practicing with an actual basketball in an actual basketball court. You might know the rules, but you can’t actually play.

If you search for “the best way to learn Haitian Creole” on Google, you’ll likely find a very popular language app as the number #1 search result.
2 Problems With Language Learning Apps if You want to Learn Haitian Creole
But there are inherent disadvantages in the popular language app when learning Haitian Creole, such as:
1 – You’re on your own. Did you pronounce this word correctly? You can’t tell because there is no human feedback.
2 – Will this sentence help you communicate in Haitian Creole with monolingual Haitians in real-life situations? Maybe, maybe not. Because the language app is not designed around your specific Haitian Creole needs. Yet, to move up, you have to go through it.
For those shortcomings alone, language apps aren’t the best way to learn Haitian Creole.
A better way to learn Haitian Creole is to have your own private tutor, showing you word-by-word how to pronounce the words in a sentence.
A better way to learn Haitian Creole is to have a private tutor add cultural context to the sentences and words you’re learning.
A better way to learn Haitian Creole is to learn to clearly speak specific Haitian Creole sentences that will be of immediate use to you based on your own unique goals and situation.
For example, let’s say you want to adopt a child from Haiti. Can you get the child’s proper name pronunciation from the popular language app? Of course not. But a private tutor will teach you.
2 Ways To Pronounce Certain Haitian Creole Words in Real Life
In Haiti, due to the fact we have French, Haitian Creole, and French-pronounced Creole (Créole Francisé), the same word can have two different pronunciations, especially words that end with “u”.
For example, the word “street” can be spoken two ways in Haitian society. It can be “lari” as in pure Haitian Creole, or it can also be “la rue” with the French “u” depending on the education level of the speaker.
If you say either “lari” or “la rue,” the average Haitian person will understand you, although “lari” is the pure Haitian Creole pronunciation.
If you want to say “useful” in Haitian Creole, you again have two options. In pure Haitian Creole, you will say “itil,” but French-educated Haitians will be saying “utile.” Both versions are fully understood by everyone.
In other words, a Haitian person who speaks both Haitian Creole and French can be an invaluable guide in helping you achieve fluency, since they can show you when to use French vocabulary.
When it comes to the actual pronunciation, which requires repetition and instant feedback, a native one-on-one tutor offers a better way to learn the pronunciation of Haitian Creole.
If you mispronounce a Haitian word, your 1-on-1 tutor can show the similarity between a Haitian Creole word sound and an English sound, and thus you will achieve better fluency when you speak with Haitian people.
