What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a challenging, professional environment where I can apply my academic expertise, multilingual proficiency, and creative technology skills.

At Dar es Salaam International Academy, I teach Kiswahili and French and integrate AI-based tools and animated content to support student engagement and comprehension.

I previously developed and implemented a French curriculum aligned with the school’s mission and goals. I also used lessons about French-speaking countries to build cultural literacy and communicated with students exclusively in French to foster oral proficiency.

As a French Translator at Alliance Française de Dar es Salaam, I proofread and improved documents while preserving their meaning, tone, and emotion. I also provided cultural input to help people speaking different languages understand one another.
