Spedo Earn connects native speakers across East Africa with learners abroad who want to actually speak Swahili, Luganda, Luo and more β not just study grammar. You set the price, you set the hours, you get paid to mobile money.
You already speak it. Turn conversation practice into income, on your own schedule.
Skip the textbook. Learn the way people actually speak, from someone who lives it.
More are added as teachers join β request one if you don't see it yet.
Pick the language(s) you speak natively, write a short bio, set your price per session and your available hours.
Learners browse teacher profiles and book a session directly with you. You confirm the time β no obligation to accept every request.
Hold the session over chat, voice or video inside the app. Once it's marked complete, your earnings are released to your mobile money wallet.
Most of my learners are people planning a trip to Uganda. It's fun to prep someone for a real conversation instead of just drilling vocabulary.
I teach in the evenings after work. Sessions are short enough to fit around my schedule, and payouts land the same day.
I started because a friend referred me. What kept me around is that learners come back for repeat sessions once you build a rapport.
Sample profiles shown for illustration β swap in real teacher stories once you have them.
Invite them with your link. Once they complete their first paid session, you both get a one-time bonus β no strings, no requirement to sign up to use the platform yourself.
No. Creating a teacher profile is free. You only need a phone, an internet connection, and a language to teach.
You set your own rate. New teachers often start lower to build reviews, then raise their price as demand grows β there's no fixed cap or fixed minimum.
Payouts go straight to your mobile money wallet (M-Pesa, MTN or Airtel) once a session is marked complete by both sides.
Teachers and learners can join from anywhere β the platform is built around East African languages, but people connect from all over the world.
