In recent years, the language has been a barrier in academic performance among many students. It acts as
an obstacle to some of the students toward learning new concepts intended since they fail to understand
what is taught in the classroom by using English language. As a result they finish a certain level of
education without having the required skills and competences.
Some measures should be taken in order to solve the existing problem. It is suggested that Kiswahili
should be used as a medium of instruction in all levels of education because it is the National language and
it is well understood by Tanzanians as compared to English language.
It has been proven through various researches that, people understand better when they learn in the
language they know.
There are some prevailing wrong perceptions that, Kiswahili has limited vocabularies and it is not self-
sufficient when it comes to scientific and technological issues. This is a very wrong perception since any
language in the universe has ability to borrow and incorporate words from other languages. However,
there is no language which is self- sufficient by itself
