Learn Swahili - webcam lessons are possible

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
This course is for anyone who wants to learn Swahili. Swahili is a very common language in Africa and it will be very useful for those who travel there, especially in the region of the great lakes. This course focuses mainly on grammar and oral communication to allow students to express themselves correctly quickly. Reading/writing is very close to speaking and is learned quickly. The objective of my course is to give students the opportunity to experience this language. So I try to help students project themselves into Swahili culture through dialogue, music and poetry. Depending on the progress and experience of the student, a trip to East Africa is strongly recommended to complete the knowledge acquired during these courses. This immersion will give the student the opportunity to experience, if only for a moment, the magic of the region where Swahili comes from.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Originally from Kenya, I have a strong love for languages and I continue to learn others including Spanish, Arabic and soon Japanese. I am a business consultant and I support my clients in business strategy and finance. I am motivated to teach Swahili by my passion for the language. I find it very beautiful, poetic and Swahili music often gives me chills. I want to give those who are interested in Swahili the opportunity to discover the richness of this language and the culture of the Great Lakes region where it comes from. Above all, I try to help my students live this language and not just learn words.

Swahili follow-up course - A2 level (ideal follow-up to the A1 course
This is the continuation of the beginners course and leads to A2 + level. The course starts with a short review of the material from the beginners course and then continues with the more complex grammar. Topics that are discussed here include: the weather, the little words, safari, narrative, writing letters and topics related to your own destination. Speaking skills and writing skills become more important in these lessons. For example, it is expected that you can give a small presentation, and you will be challenged to do the emails to the teacher as much as possible in Swahili.

JUNIOR AND SENIOR SECONDARY HOMESCHOOLING FOR BOTH LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
Kiswahili is spoken by an estimated 80 million people in East and Central Africa. It is the official language in Tanzania and Kenya, and is also used in Uganda, Somalia, Mozambique, Malawi, Rwanda, Burundi, Zambia, and Congo (formerly Zaire). The vast majority of speakers of Kiswahili are native speakers of other African languages and use Kiswahili as a lingua franca. After Arabic, Kiswahili is the most widely understood language in Africa. History is the study of change over time, and it covers all aspects of human society. Political, social, economic, scientific, technological, medical, cultural, intellectual, religious and military developments are all part of history.
