Swahili Conversation Tutor (Peer-to-Peer)
As a Swahili Conversation Tutor, I supported language learning through bilingual English-Swahili translation practice and conversational instruction for international students. The work involved converting learner needs into appropriate bilingual explanations and assisting with schoolwork translation and everyday communication. I also adjusted content for learners with no prior Swahili grammar or vocabulary to improve comprehension and cross-cultural communication. • Provided one-on-one conversational tutoring to approximately 10 international students. • Supported English-Swahili translation tasks for classmates’ academic and daily communication. • Adapted explanations to match learners’ background and prior exposure to Swahili. • Facilitated language-focused feedback in a remote/independent style of study.
