    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.

    Well, as some may say that French is a language of love, i dare say that Swahili is the actual language of love for the syllables tend to have way more impact! Not forgetting how sweet to the tongue Swahili is when speaking. I have therefore designed this course to offer a Kenyan national dialect in Swahili language for any interactive beginner level student to an advanced level student.
