A good way to learn Swahili
I want to learn Swahili because I am going to be living in Kenya for the next eight months. I like the course because I can take it with me anywhere in the world. As for the pace of learning, I find I am learning relatively quickyl and retaining what I’ve learned.

Very good
I especially appreciate the ability to switch between Swahili / French and French / Swahili. Writing what you see is particularly rewarding. I think I'll go for an English course in the near future.

Fun way to learn Swahili
I found the course very useful. Swahili is, along with English and French, the main language of communication in Africa mainly in the countries of the East. As such it is a highly interesting option both for tourism and for any business transaction or professional initiative in the area. The course provides an entertaining way to acquire a first contact with the language and advance gradually to acquire a basic level to function in the country.
