Jane continues to impress me as a teacher! Learning new languages has NEVER been easy for me, but for some reason with her I’m learning faster and more easily than I ever have in my life. She makes things seem easy and manageable. She moves at a speed that helps us excel and retain information. I recommend her to everyone I meet who wants to learn Swahili.

Mwalimu Jane is an excellent teacher! She is student-oriented in her lessons and teaches in an intresting manner. She helped me refresh my Swahili and I feel I learn a lot during each lesson. I am certain I will advance very quickly in my Swahili skills thanks to her. I highly recommend Mwalimu Jane :)

As a teacher, I recognize when someone excels in their role, and Mwalimu Jane truly does. Her lessons are marked not only by a high level of language instruction but also by engaging discussions about Swahili history and culture, all while fostering plenty of laughter. With her extensive knowledge, passion for teaching, and great sense of humor, she truly stands out. Keep up the great work!

Mwalimu Jane is the best teacher, she explains everything very clearly. Even if I sometimes need to miss a class, she effortlessly ensures we are right back on track. She has already taught me a lot of things and I am excited to learn more.
