Communicating in a foreign language is a challenge for people engaged in development work in East Africa. During the last 50 years, MS TCDC has developed extensive expertise in enabling expatriates to improve their language skills. As a result, our training has gained a very strong reputation in the East African Region (Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi).
The international composition of the Swahili classes at MS TCDC enhance informal cross-cultural discussions and provides participants with important contacts valuable for their future life in East Africa.
