1-on-1 Shona for Kids

Personalised weekly coaching to help your child speak, read, and feel confident in Shona.

Whether your child is starting from scratch or preparing for the Grade 7 ZIMSEC exam, these weekly sessions give them the tools — and the confidence — to thrive.

What Your Child Gains

• Confidence to speak Shona without fear
• Enjoyment in reading stories and understanding meaning
• Clear pronunciation & fluency that feels natural
• (For exam learners) Preparedness to face Grade 7 with less stress and more confidence

Beyond skills, learning Shona gives your child a stronger connection — to school, to family, and to their roots.

Two learning paths — one goal: progress

Because learners come in at different ages and stages, I offer two tailored tracks:

🌱 ZimbOriginal Story Track

For younger learners or those new to Shona:

• Learn Shona through stories, vocabulary, reading and writing practice
• Build long-term fluency step by step
• Ideal for learners up to early Grade 6

Note: Older children who are not preparing for the ZIMSEC Grade 7 exam, especially those learning Shona as a heritage language, will continue on this track.

🎓 Grade 7 Revision Track

For learners preparing to sit the national ZIMSEC exam:

• Guided pracice with past exam papers
• Focus on comprehension, vocabulary, grammar and composition
• Reduce exam anxiety, boost confidence
• Ideal for learners in late Grade 6 or Grade 7

What’s included:

• Weekly 45-minute live sessions (via Microsoft Teams)
• Access to the Shona Book Club digital library

• Learning that matches your child’s rhythm

How it works:
