About Me
italki teacher since May 26, 2020
My name is Sylvia. I live in Nairobi, Kenya. I teach both Swahili and English languages. Swahili is my first and native language. I am a graduate from Kenyatta University, with ambient knowledge in research, management, documentation, leadership, mentorship as well as gender-related issues and literature. I am also a life coach, mentor, and counselor. During my free time, I do a lot of social work and traveling.
I accommodate every learning need of the student. Whether you want to learn Swahili for business, travel, or other purposes, we can focus the class on that. I am always willing to answer any of your questions at any time during the class, as well as outside of the class. Your learning process will be enhanced by using Memrise as a source of your vocabulary. I also use the "Living Language Swahili" book to provide well-structured lessons. I am going to provide you a free PDF of this student book. Each lesson will consist of speaking, reading, listening, and vocabulary exercises. We can always focus more on a particular learning aspect that you'd like to have improved primarily.
I prefer 1-hour-long classes. I teach both formal and informal styles of Swahili, depending on what is your objective in the learning process. I use various teaching materials and adapt the class to student's needs.
