Umuhoza Karen

I recommend Umuhoza for all levels of Swahili learners. Her wealth of knowledge of different east African cultures/customs adds an extra level of benefits to taking her classes for beginners to advance level learners.

If it were possible I would definitely rate Umuhoza Karen much higher. She was very kind and understanding in her approach and always encourages me to keep speaking Swahili. She made the lesson very fun and interactive, and she is very knowledgeable about the Swahili language, she explains clearly and precisely more than what the word means but how to use it properly she is one of the best Swahili teachers out there. I'll definitely be doing more lessons with her, and I have nothing but great things to say about her.

I could you recommend Umuhoza more highly. I learn a lot during her classes AND it is a lot of fun. This must be the best way to learn a language... She leads the class Professionally, and seems to understand very well how to adapt her curriculum to my needs, interests and learning speed. When we talk, it is like I am in Africa already!

Wonderful dedicated teacher. Karen is very organized, and makes learning easy. Also, no idle chit chat, she stays with the subject matter.

Umuhoza has been amazing explaining grammar and sentence structure that Duolingo has been lacking in their Swahili course!

I have a busy schedule, but if I could describe how her lessons have helped, they have been Transformative!! Very, very impactful! My patients are SOOO delighted that I'm speaking Kiniwanda.
