Teaching Method

Many Swahili language courses only give you part of the picture, by focusing on memorizing words and phrases-with the hope that you will someday be able to parrot them back. This method, while effective in expanding your vocabulary, does not teach you the underlying structure of the language. Speaking a foreign language is a creative act. You need to understand the rules of Swahili in order to speak your own sentences. Courses that rely on memorization alone ignore this fact.

In contrast to the memorization only approach, Foreign Service Swahili utilizes a holistic teaching method. By focusing on teaching all aspects of the language, you’ll learn to speak Swahili, rather than just a list of Swahili words and phrases. Using a straight-forward, easy to follow presentation that uses both Swahili audio and a course book, you will be exposed to everything you need to know to start speaking Swahili fluently. By following lessons in the text and practicing with the course audio you will learn:

• Swahili Vocabulary and Phrases
• How to Speak Swahili with Correct Pronunciation
• Swahili Grammar Needed to Speak Swahili Fluently
• How to Read and Write Swahili

Learn Swahili rapidly with practical, enjoyable exercises, focused review sessions, and real life conversations. With an easy to use, sensible, and effective format, you will see why this course has been used by the Foreign Service for decades.

What You Get

The Swahili Level One course is presented in a digital course book. The course book provides an organized, easy to follow lesson plan that makes teaching yourself Swahili easy, enjoyable, and fun.

Working in concert with the course text, Swahili level one also includes 16 hours of full immersion Swahili audio. The audio portion of the course teaches you proper Swahili pronunciation and provides and opportunity to practice along with simulated conversations. The audio included with the course can be used on any computer or loaded to your iPod or other MP3 player.
