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.

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!

The lessons are truly excellent. Everything is well structured: not too fast, not too slow. I feel completely comfortable and I’m really making great progress. Karen is highly recommended! Give it a try :)

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.

My first lesson with Umuhoza Karen was great! A good introductory lesson with greetings and self introduction. Very friendly and I felt comfortable even when making mistakes. Looking forward to more lessons!

Umuhoza is super patient and always willing to answer questions to solidify your understanding at any point in the lesson. Highly recommend!
