Welcome to LSN'S 5- Pillar strategy of learning Swahili
Here at LSN, we recognize that learning a language as an adult in a non-immersive setting requires unique strategy. This is why each LSN program is designed to cater to fill the 5 gaps of learning a language.
Our entire program is based on 5 pillars.
Pillar 1: The "Why"- We help you connect with your deep reason for embarking on this journey.
Pillar 2: The "What"- We provide you with quality courses that will get you from a novice to expert in no time.
Pillar 3: The "How"- We teach you how to study and best practices as an adult learner.
Pillar 4: The "Who"- We help you create "your tribe" of fellow learners to keep you accountable.
Pillar 5: The "When"- We help you create workable and sustainable schedules to help you stay consistent.
I absolutely love the format. It’s interactive and engaging. It was consistent each week, video, subject to be discussed based on your level, practice sessions, and drills, followed by assignments to reinforce the concepts. Daphne R.

Here’s my story...
I created in response to the glaring need for quality, affordable and convenient means of learning Swahili. In the recent years due to the rapidly changing geo-political conditions, there has been an influx of Swahili speaking refugees, among others, to the Western World.
As a result, thousands of volunteers have signed up to work among the refugees. My husband, Scott and I have been working within the refugee communities in their home city of St. Louis, for about a decade now.
As a volunteer, we noticed that most English-speaking volunteers were struggling to find resources to help them learn Swahili. Using my experience as a native Swahili speaker, a college professor and an avid language learner, I set out to create a platform that would combine both quality and affordability into a convenient course that could be taken at one's own pace.
This platform would become LSN. I truly hope that you find this space a place where you can continue to grow your love for Swahili speaking people and language. I look forward to helping you on your journey.
"I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn Swahili or improve their skills," Addie, H.

This Kiswahili course (especially the 30 day challenge "Unleash your inner heart of a mission") was a great experience. I have learned so much. On one hand, Karen explains this beautiful language very well and in small bites, which makes it very understandable. She offers different types of learning tasks, such as listening, writing or speaking.

This challenge gave me the reassurance that learning Swahili is something I CAN do. The LSN platform makes it so easy for you to get organized with your learning. It’s convenient and available to you at any time. My plan after the challenge is to continue with my study sessions, and I’m grateful to have the tools to do so.
