Ndava nemakore akawanda ndichidzidzisa Chi Shona. I have been teaching Shona to adults from beginners to advanced levels. I use direct drilling, storytelling and analysis, podcasting and song transcription. I establish a daily routine to help the student understand simpler phrases with little difficulty. I invite my students to a trial class for a strategy session to help me understand their learning needs, so I customise the curriculum according to their goals.
Kim Littlewood17 Jun 2024Another great lesson with Melody today! We recapped the material from our last lesson and Melody helped me to correct my pronunciation, diversify the phrasing and added some new words. Then in the lesson we learned about family and relations (the family tree). I look forward to putting my new language skills into practice again next week.
