... I am also afraid of Balinese language, I am thinking that maybe people of Bali use Balinese language among themselves and English with foreigners. If that is the case, maybe Yongyakarta (my second option) is better.
I have already found a couple of schools:
learnindonesianinbali in Seminyak
and
cintabahasa in Ubud
If someone has any experience with them or any other it will be very helpful.
I'm in the second week of a four week course at Cinta Bahasa in Ubud and believe it is a great way to learn Bahasa Indonesia.
It is true that Balinese speak Balinese among themselves but they also are fluent in B.I. I know of a 12 year old daughter in one family that hardly speaks Balinese because her family speak Indonesian at home. The Balinese often use Bahasa Indonesia in business. I think you'd find Bali just fine for learning B.I.
