description: Kiswahili has been taught in this country for some three decades, yet the majority of the teachers have not been formally trained. As a consequence, there has not been a uniform approach to Kiswahili language instruction and the quality of the instruction has been uneven. The African Language Teachers Association has been aware of this situation and this manual is an attempt to redress it. The topics covered in this manual include types of students, teaching strategies, classroom management, class structure, student projects, how and when to correct students, using text material, using audio-visual material, language and maintenance and evaluation. In addition, the manual offers and index of terms used (with brief definitions), suggested reference books (language instruction and culture), suggested audio-visual materials, sample course descriptions, a sample lesson plan, sample tests with an addendum (Nyongeza), and an equipment wish list.
