“…Kupotea njia ndiko kujua njia…”; “…To get lost is to learn the way...” At NISEAC we help our enthusiastic and curious students push themselves to overcome cultural and linguistic barriers within East Africa. We take great pride in guiding our students on their path towards knowledge expansion and exploration of the customs and languages of a vast array of East African ethnic groups and societies.
After spending some time with our faculty and fellow learners here at Nairobi Institute of Swahili & East African Culture, our students are well equipped to explore life outside our lush gardens, with newly acquired means of socializing, networking and ultimately the ability to integrate smoothly in the local society. Take the first step towards a mind bending experience of mastering communication in East Africa. Unleash your potential, accomplish your goals and thrive within the region. “…Mwenda bure si mkaa bure, huenda akaokota…”; “…One who walks with no reason is not like one who sits without reason, the one who walks might pick up something…” Satisfy your curiosity and hunger to explore. Join us!
“…Penye mafundi, hapakosi wanafunzi…”; “…Where there are experts, learners do not lack...” Nairobi Institute of Swahili & East African Culture offers a broad range of Swahili language courses ranging from short term ‘full-emersion crash-courses’, to regular beginners’ courses, intermediate courses, advanced courses and proficient courses. We also offer bespoke courses, such as Swahili for business. We have an international and very diverse student body including volunteers, overseas students on sabbatical leave, NGOs, diplomats, as well as a variety of expatriates based in Nairobi. One of our strengths is anchored in the combination of a highly qualified faculty of teachers, an inspiring and indeed very social environment, coupled with affordable, competitive tuition fees.
