My journey brought me to Switzerland 24 years ago. Since 2009, I have been living here in the cultural city of Basel.

I am originally from Busia, Kenya. Located near Lake Victoria, Kenya is ten times the size of Switzerland. Because I have always maintained a deep connection to my culture and language, I am very proud to teach Swahili here in Basel. As the only course provider in the region, I have made it my mission to share East African language and culture with you authentically and passionately.

I deeply value this opportunity, as intercultural exchange truly brings the world a little closer together.
