Dar
es Salaam — Government has embarked on preparing teachers who are set
to teach Kiswahili language in SADC countries including Namibia, South
Africa and Zimbabwe.
This was said by the Director of Information Services, Dr Hassan Abbas today at a news conference
in Dar es Salaam
He further revealed
that the National Council for Kiswahili (Bakita) has registered some
708 Kiswahili teachers ahead the refresher course.
The move to recruit
teachers came after the President John Magufuli held official talks
with Heads of some SADC countries on the possibility of deploying
Tanzanian teachers to teach Kiswahili in those countries.
"Doubling of
efforts is necessary to recruit our local linguistic experts so as to
improve their capacities to teach Kiswahili to foreigners, " said Dr
Abbas.
He added: "I
therefore encourage more Tanzanian teachers to turn in a large number at
Bakita offices and register their names for the advanced training."
