In the diaspora, we rarely stop teaching our children Shona because it is hard. We stop because life gets in the way and there is no system holding it together. A few good weeks, then work picks up, the children resist, and the whole thing quietly disappears.
I have prepared a short, practical plan for parents who need something that fits inside the routines we already have: ten to fifteen minutes a day, a clear starting point, and a way to keep going when busy routines get in the way.
You'll also get a curated list of my recommended resources to help you get your child on a path to learning ChiShona.
