      Hi Agen,
      While we love the idea of teaching Bemba, we currently do not have a program that you can join.
      Until we are able to arrange one, we will continue to post our lessons.
      If we come across something that will meet your needs better, we will let you know.
      If you do come across something that helps you, please feel free to share it with our readers here.
