Swahili via Skype in Language Life School

Learn Swahili online

Swahili, or Kiswahili, is the language of the Swahili people. It is the most widely-spoken Bantu language and one of the most important languages of the African continent. Swahili is a governmental language in Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda. Interestingly, Swahili is the only African language to become a working language of the African Union and is the official language of the East African Community. Modern Swahili uses the Latin alphabet in writing. The name Swahili originates in the plural form of the Arabic word sāhil, sawāhil, which means “coasts”. Swahili’s grammar is based on concording classes. In the 20th century, interest in Swahili increased significantly. In present day, Swahili is taught and studied at almost all major universities and research centres in Germany, England, France, Italy, Belgium, Japan, China, the USA, and other countries.

The language school Language Life offers private and group online Swahili lessons with native speakers who are also professional teachers. With us, you can study Swahili regardless of your level.

Testimonials of our students

We started studying French as total beginners; it was also our first experience of studying via Skype. We had a few misgivings, but the fact is that if you have a high speed internet connection, it’s just the same as private lessons with lots of advantages. We don’t have to spend time travelling to classes, and we can study anywhere, even when travelling. Lessons are easy-going and pleasant, and we look forward to each lesson. We listen to recordings, do exercises, and receive all necessary documents by email. Marie is a good teacher, and the lessons go by quickly and are interesting. She shows attention to detail, which is very important for beginners. The materials, too, are very well chosen.

As far as the work of the school itself is concerned, everything is done very efficiently: we corresponded with Yulia; she chose a teacher for us; we transferred the money, and right away began our studies.

I'd like to share my feelings about about my studies and to thank my Italian teacher, Lara. Through the course of my lessons, I have come to see several positive outcomes. First of all, these are individual lessons at a time that is convenient for me. But the most important thing is that these lessons have augmented the level of my ability. As I am not a beginner Italian student, it was very important to me to find a teacher who was a native speaker. And it seems to me that I have been very lucky in finding Lara. She is a very open person and it is apparent right away that she wants to pass on to others the skills that she has mastered. The lessons are very informative. As she is a native speaker, Lara gives me a lot in the way of new vocabulary, and she presents the grammar material really well. Of course, conversation with her aids in the development of my conversational Italian, the level of which has significantly done down due to a lack of practice. It is with great pleasure that I express my thanks to her for the wonderful lessons and recommend Lara to anyone interested in studying Italian!

I thank God for giving me such an excellent teacher as Maria who, as well as being highly professional, is honest, patient, kind, and caring – qualities that are today, sadly, all too rare. I would recommend Maria to everyone, both as a teacher and as a person!
