“My journey with the Mdw Ntr began over 35 years ago at the City College of New York when I took an introductory class on the writing system with Dr. Rkhty Amen who was a Ph.D. student at the time. I was completing my undergraduate degree in Computer Science with a minor in Black Studies. Dr. Rkhty's instructions and expertise on the writing system of the Ancient Egyptians, properly called the rmT (Remetch), exposed me to a skill set that has improved my cognitive and neural abilities, problem solving skills, and worldview.

I'm an Independent Researcher with a Journal Article on the meaning of Km.t, an educator, and an online content creator with several million views on YouTube (search for "Bro Reggie"). I'm also a resource to scores of professionals and students interested in Nile Valley Civilization.

This was my journey, and my question to you is this: are you ready to begin your journey in understanding, verifying, and translating exactly what the Ancient Egyptians thought and wrote in order to enrich your life? The field of Ancient Nubia, Egypt, and Africa is expanding and waiting for you. Will you take the step and learn to read this incredible language and continue the mission of those who created civilization itself?

It's my recommendation that you join Dr. Rkhty's school and start your journey learning all about the Mdw Ntr. You will inherit a treasure that will benefit your whole life!”

“I have been a student of sbA Bonotchi Montgomery for several years. Studying languages is one of my passions. Learning Afrikan Culture is another one of my passions. Studying and learning the mdw ntr is a perfect combination of these two passions.

sbA Bonotchi teachings has helped me expand my view of where Afrikan people are in the world today, Afrikan people role in the world in the past and the potential for Afrikan people future world.

sbA Bonotchi teaching has assisted me to improve my listening skills leading to more articulate speech. I appreciate his structured approach to teaching the mdw ntr using the grammar to develop a solid foundation for translation.

sbA Bonotchi encourages studying with a group. Studying the language has broaden my cultural knowledge and understanding of Afrikan people then and now. Ancient Afrikan people connected all things to nature. This helped me to express my connection to nature.

I tutor children in grades K-12 math and reading. The skills used and enhanced along with the Afrikan Cultural knowledge has improved my tutoring of Afrikan children. Lastly studying with sbA Bonotchi has caused my brain and mind to continue to grow and I have formed special friendships with the members of my study group.”

“First of all, I'd like to thank you for what you are doing for us. What had I learned in this class? I learned a lot. In fact, I met great classmates who have the same goal in mind. They taught me a lot of things and made me feel that we belong together. My classmates were very supportive. This class was the best decision I ever made in my life to learn about how our ancestors thought, talked, and view the world.

My opinion about the class is that there is so much I have learned in such a little time. Since I started this class, it has changed me not to want to let it go. I wish the course wouldn't end as soon as it did. I can't say thank you enough for the work that you are doing, Baba Bonotchi.

What I can say is that what you have shared with me will not be wasted because I will use this knowledge and pass it on to the people who need it the most. That means you have made an impact on me and beyond.

“The least I could say is that the Institute of Kemetic Philology changed my life. No hyperbole necessary. Learning md.w-nTr at Mwt Rkhty's school has been the greatest learning experience of my life, and this is coming from someone with a college degree. Never before have I had a classroom experience where the material, instructor, students and program were in harmony like this. I will always be indebted to Mwt and Baba Bonotchi for taking me on as a student, I and I plan to make good on said debt as best I can; no teacher can be great without the perpetuity of being a great student.”

“I want to start off by saying that I am a proud student of Dr. Rkhty Amen. She is the best mdw nTr instructor alive today. I can say that because I left her to study under another teacher, even though the instructor was great, the class didn't compare to Dr. Rkhty Amen's class and her wisdom.”

“I have been with Dr. Rkhty since 2012. I went through all of her levels and I finished her final level last year. It is an amazing journey learning the mDw nTr with Dr.Rkhty Amen. In the Beginner semester, she gives all of her students the foundational skills needed to translate the mDw nTr. They learn grammar, vocabulary, and a foundational background to Kemet and its culture.

The intermediate semesters are all about building on your foundation, building the grammar, and more vocabulary. Finally, in the advanced classes you are ready to translate mDw nTr texts and learn complex grammar concepts.

After going through all her levels, I am able to read mDw nTr like it's English; along with comprehending and understanding the text like the Kemetyu. I would recommend her to everyone who is interested in learning the mDw nTr and Kemet.” Khepera Mery Amun, June 2020

“I began my studies of mdw neṯer with Dr. Rkhty Amen in 2013 and I learned a lot more than just the language. In addition to the language, students learn about the culture and history of Kemet and the Nile Valley and are taught a Kemetic “worldview.” As an advanced student I learned the different historical phases and dialects of the language as well as hieratic.

What distinguishes this school from other schools is that Dr. Rkhty has established an institution. The Institute of Kemetic Philology has been around for many years and is well-equipped to last into the future, ensuring that many of our people will learn the language and culture for years to come. Instructors Sonjedi Ankh Ra and Baba Akinjide Bonotchi are exemplary teachers and scholars. sbAt Rkhty has a vision and a passion to revitalize mdw neṯer (wHm mswt) and make it a living language once again and the Institute for Kemetic Philology is well established to meet that challenge. I encourage you to enroll and be reconnected to your ancestral heritage so that you can pass this on to your children, family and friends, and community.”

“The Kemetic Astrology course is a journey back to our ancestors, the beginning of timekeeping, mathematics the stars, and the heavenly bodies which lay the foundation of what today is known as astrology.

Sen Metu guides and instructs not just by disseminating factual information but with artistic vision and expression which gives insight into the mindset of our ancestors in a unique visual and truly fascinating way.

He aided me in tapping into my right brain to access the spiritual aspects of the culture and how at the end of the day this science is about Us, and a guide on how to cultivate the divinity within. The class was an enlightening experience and I’m looking forward to the next level. Dua, Dua, Dua. Hotep.”
