Q1. Why should I learn Swahili on AmazingTalker?
AmazingTalker’s one-on-one tutor is suitable for everyone that wants to learn Swahili, regardless if you are a child, beginner, student, adult or professional.
Our tutors can help you to learn in all aspects of the language - listening, writing, reading, speaking, pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, or customized courses (e.g. business Swahili programs). If you would like to significantly improve your conversation abilities in Swahili, or if you’d like to stand out in your test or your work, then AmazingTalker’s Swahili tutor can definitely help you!
Q2. Who are our Swahili tutors?
AmazingTalker handpick only the best local and international Swahili tutors.
Each of our tutors have to go through a rigorous selection process before becoming an AT Swahili tutor, and their performance will also be constantly monitored by us. You will get the best learning experience from the tutor we have recommended for you!
Q3. How do I choose my Swahili tutor?
If you have a clear idea of your criteria for choosing a tutor - such as cost of lessons, nationality of the tutor, learning objectives, etc. - you can use the search function to quickly find a tutor to suit your needs, and select “trial lesson” for your first Swahili online lesson.
However, if you do not have the time to find a tutor, we can help you with a recommendation. In just a short 3 minutes, we can find a suitable tutor for you using our Auto-Match function!
Q4. Should I choose a Swahili tutor that is a native speaker?
One of the best way to learn Swahili is to immerse yourself in an environment where you can only use Swahili.
However, if you do not currently have a solid base of spelling and/or vocabulary, we would recommend a bilingual tutor, as you will achieve a better learning outcome in the limited time of one-on-one private tutoring.
If you have a good range of vocabulary but lack the opportunity to practice, then we would definitely recommend you to choose a native Swahili tutor.
Q5. Learn Swahili in the US - how to find a local or online tutor?
We have local Swahili tutors from New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, San Francisco, San Jose, Philadelphia as well as international tutors based in other countries.
Q6. How much will my online Swahili class cost?
All tutoring fees are set by the Swahili tutors themselves, and not by AT. Most of our Swahili tutors charge USD$10-30 per hour.
We will match suitable Swahili tutors to the student’s cost needs. If the tutor’s fees are acceptable to you, we recommend that you can start with a “trial lesson”.
Q7. How do I pay for the my Swahili lessons?
We accept payment for the lessons by credit card. In some countries (e.g. Taiwan), we also accept local methods of payment, such as ATM payment or payment at convenient stores.
Q8. How many Swahili lessons should I purchase?
If you have a short term goal, we recommend you to purchase the number of lessons that is appropriate for your timeframe. If you need significant improvement to reach your goal, we recommend you to purchase adequate number of lessons, and get into the habit of regular weekly learning!
