hello! U hali gani! Karibu Tanzania (welcome-Tanzania). I am Rose Pendael, I am professional Teacher for Swahili and Literature in English. I have bachelor Degree of Arts With Education. I have 2 years experience in Teaching Swahili to foreigners ,I usually talk to the students to get a feel of their level of knowledge and also to just figure out their personalities so as to know how to create and deliver my lessons. Materials I use include flash cards (which are one of the best ways to learn and remember new things), short stories and pictures which make lessons fun but very easy to remember at the same time. For Swahili lessons, i am interesting on using Interactive methods which are :- • Communicative approach (Competence based approach) • Immersion approach • Task based approach • Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling • Grammar approach & audio lingual approach. So I use mp3 audio and Video recordings for my students' supplementary purposes as well as pronunciation practice. This I usually alternate with regular homework as well as tests and pop quizzes to ensure the student is keeping up.
