I love people. I love animals.🦒 🐘 🦓
My favorite color is yellow. 💛

I like playing games. ♣️♦️♠️
I like traveling✈️, sightseeing and meeting with people from different backgrounds. For 5 years I worked as a mountain guide and through this experience I enjoyed meeting people from around the world. I had the opportunity to teach them about the fauna and flora of the highest mountain in Africa, Mt. Kilimanjaro, which I have climbed more than 20 times. I also enjoyed working as a Safari guide in the beautiful natural parks of Tanzania. I lived in Ghana for 2 and half years. Currently I live in United States. I love teaching and sharing with people what I know.Me as a Teacher
I am a TESOL Certified English Tutor with over 10 years of experience teaching. What would you do if you came face to face with a leopard 🦁🐆? I can tell you.... because it happened to me. I would love to share my experiences as a safari guide and mountaineer while practicing your conversational Swahili or English. I can't wait to hear more about you. Talk with you soon.My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is friendly and conversational. I focus more on speaking and grammar. I believe that the more a student gets to practice the more confident he/she becomes.My teaching material

I’ve really enjoyed my classes with Jacob. I’m a complete beginner and have been learning so much from him. His explanations are always helpful and easy to understand. He’s very patient and encouraging. The classes are a lot of fun and I look forward to them every week

Jacob is such a great teacher! He's always encouraging me to do my best and always giving me positive feedback. He always makes sure I talk a lot in Swahili so much so that after only one year of weekly classes with him I can now hold a conversation in Swahili

Jacob has helped us make significant progress. He is experienced, dependable and friendly. His solid command of English enables him to explain things well, while still stretching us to hear & speak Swahili during lessons.
