What I'm looking for

I’m seeking remote annotation work, with 28 hours per week available and no conflict with my medical studies.

As a native Swahili speaker, I tutored Gakurari Primary and Gathanji Secondary School learners in formal Swahili grammar, phonology, and syntax while preparing them for standardized assessments.

I evaluated spoken and written exercises, correcting grammatical and phonetic errors in line with Kiswahili Sanifu. I’m equipped for remote annotation work, including audio validation, text labeling, phonetic annotation, and transcription.
