Six small wins. The kind that turn a tourist into someone who belongs at the table.
I grew up in a small village in southern Tanzania — the kind of place foreigners rarely visit. In 2019, I bought my first smartphone and went online to practise English. Instead, people kept asking me the same thing: can you teach me Swahili?
So I did. From my university dorm room, figuring it out as I went. Free first, then gifts, then money — three years before I called myself professional. Since 2021, I've taught Swahili to more than 300 learners from over 50 countries.
I'm certified by Tanzania's National Swahili Council (BAKITA) and I'm also TEFL-certified. I'm still learning languages myself; so, I know what it feels like to sit where you're sitting right now.
The hundred words inside are the ones a Tanzanian actually uses on a Tuesday afternoon. Greetings that change depending on who's in front of you. Numbers that count to ninety-nine with just ten words. The word for I don't know that closes a hundred awkward conversations honestly.
Free. No card. No countdown.
