About Me
italki teacher since Sep 16, 2024InterestsSports & FitnessTechMarketingBusiness & FinanceReading
Hello! I'm a passionate conversationalist with a unique teaching background as a native speaker and from my experience as a Sunday School teacher. I also co-founded an educational app called Smartdarasa.com and created a community of Startup Founders in my country called Founders Tanzania.
I grew up speaking our native language, Kinga, which I learned while staying in the countryside with my grandmother. Unfortunately, after returning to town and not having anyone to speak Kinga with, I gradually lost my fluency. This experience showed me the importance of practice and communication in language retention, and it drives my passion for helping others maintain and improve their language.Me as a Teacher
As a Sunday School teacher, I've gained valuable experience in guiding and engaging students in meaningful conversations. My role involved creating a welcoming environment where students felt comfortable expressing themselves, asking questions, and participating in discussions. I focused on helping them understand and apply lessons in a practical, relatable way.
This experience has equipped me with the skills to facilitate conversations that encourage learning, build confidence, and improve communication. My goal as a conversationalist on Italki is to create a similar environment where learners feel at ease, motivated to practice, and inspired to improve their language skills naturally.My lessons & teaching style
As a language enthusiast with a passion for sharing my native tongue, I believe in a conversational and engaging approach to learning. My lessons focus on creating a comfortable and supportive environment where you can practice speaking Swahili confidently and naturally.
We can talk about anything from daily life to more complex topics, depending on your comfort level. I’m here to guide you, correct your mistakes gently, and help you build the confidence to speak naturally and effortlessly. My goal is to make sure you not only learn the language but also enjoy the process of learning it.My teaching material
