My lessons & teaching style
I teach all kinds of learners from beginners, intermediate and advanced level. I also teach Swahili for those who want to learn for traveling or vacation. I always ask learners to explain what outcome they would need to attain, so I use simple notes, audios, short stories, simple grammar, audio visuals, you tube etc. I help learners practice speaking the targeted language. I categorize my teaching into grammar, vocabulary, language use & conversation.My teaching material

Had a great lesson with Mwalimu Pius today. After catching up on the current events, I did my best to summarize an article about an infamous conman from the 1930's. Mwalimu helped me with a number of new words and asked follow-up questions. It was a very good lesson.

Mwalimu Pius and I had some great conversations today, expanding vocabulary into the AI sector. He deftly pointed out a nuance of the words kutongoza/kushawishi that I didn't realize. He is very good at covering the nuances of words and proper usage.

It's always a joy to have a lesson with Mwalimu Pius. We always have interesting conversations on a mix of pre-planned and impromptu topics. He is very patient and has impeccable Swahili.

We had a very interesting lesson today about the history of Portugal and its role in Africa. We focused on factors leading to the decline of Portugal's power. Mwalimu also provided some sets of related words that were very similar to each other. It was a good exercise in differentiating similar words.

Had a great lesson today with Mwalimu Pius. We discussed the history of Japan with a focus on World War II events. There was some new vocabulary due to the topic, which Mwalimu easily and clearly explained. We also came up with some ideas for the next lesson.
