Jambo, karibu sana!
Do you want to improve your Swahili speaking and comprehension skills? I am a native Swahili speaker. I am also experienced in tutoring for school and college students. I can customize the lessons based on the students' requirements.

I am used to working with people of different ages. I believe in segmentation, visualization of progress, objective results and practice.

Beyond these general lines, there is no rule or magic method. Some things work with some students and not with others. Adapting to needs is the goal of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my students.

I speak Spanish at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.

The design of my lessons is varied, follows current scientific findings on language acquisition and implements the demands of modern foreign language didactics in teaching practice.

I pay particular attention to the following aspects: Development of communicative and pragmatic language skills through a systematic, progressive development of linguistic skills and in particular through the active use of language.

Courses for adults, children and travelers who either want to travel to Tanzania, simply learn the language or want to get involved with the language.

Various topics are discussed and everyday language is practiced. Experience shows that you can learn to understand a new language better and more easily through dialogues and discussion opportunities.

Goals: Learn new expressions and the art of language, discuss various topics and learn vocabulary, use grammar, independently form simple sentences, conduct simple dialogues, deal with current topics and discuss them. Furthermore, the ability to conduct dialogues and understand what is being said should be achieved.

My English, Swahili and History are made simpler as we will have more spoken interaction, fun activities that build on your confidence to speak and express your ideas as there is no wrong answer or questions in my class. We learn language through experience and real life scenarios. We incorporate, discussions, individualised learning and even explore learners curiousity. I' m a teacher by profession and now pursuing a masters degree in education management as I'm interested in researching on curriculum designs and how different learners abilities, curiosity and individual opinions are incorporated in schools and most importantly in classes. I believe every learner has something to offer. It's all about value addition where learners improve on themselves through consistency and practice rather than rote memorization of knowledge and information. I teach with so much patience, empathy and most importantly motivation to allow ourselves to fail and make mistakes in order to learn, no competition with others just us in a safe place to laugh at our slip up and correct them with a light heart.
