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.

French Lessons - From Basics to Advanced is the right course for you if you are a complete beginner or want to make a fresh start. It is an immersive course which will help you to understand, read, and speak most of the French you will need on holiday or a business trip.

The first ten units introduce you to the basic structures and grammatical points you 'll need in everyday situations. Units 1-10 should be taken in order, as each builds on the previous one.

Units 11-19 deal with everyday situations such as shopping, eating, booking a room, traveling, and give you the opportunity to put into practice the language you've acquired in the first part.

Grammar is essential for everyone and there is a need to sharpen it from a young age. Hence for the beginner level students get to learn vowels, pronunciations, greetings, consonants how to read and write in Swahili and English.

East Africa has great and amazing visitation sites and hence visitors are attracted. Swahili is commonly used in the region and for that reason I teach students the basics of Swahili to get to understand and feel confident and comfortable when speaking it.

The students get to learn to be confident in their grammar for both school work and for their interactions. I provide handouts in order for the students to understand and practice their skills fully.

1. Swahili lessons for beginners aim to provide a solid foundation in the language, with an emphasis on building vocabulary, understanding grammar and sentence structure, and developing basic reading and writing skills.

2. Beginners will typically have access to resources such as textbooks, workbooks, and online materials, and they may also have the opportunity to practice speaking and listening skills with a teacher or tutor.

3. Swahili lessons for beginners is learning how to read and write in the language. The Swahili alphabet consists of 26 letters, similar to the English alphabet, but with a few differences in pronunciation.

4. Beginners will also learn how to conjugate verbs in Swahili, which is an important aspect of the language. The verb "to be," for example, has different conjugations depending on the tense and subject of the sentence.
