by Aimée DushimeI came across this quote recently and it couldn’t be timely. “Think about where you were last year. Think about the things that used to worry you so much that no longer consume your mind and time: the relationship that wasn’t healthy, the stress of what this year would be like, the things you never […]
by TeakisiBy Eunice Tossy I always imagined how my mom would react to me telling her I was being sexually assaulted in our own home. To the extent that when I did, her response was good, but it wasn’t what I had expected. She was mad the first night, but later on she handled the situation […]
by Yunah BvumbweThere has been a plethora of hashtags that took turns trending on various social media platforms – #ManAreTrash, #IamNext and so forth, with the intention to stop the madness and frightening numbers of women being killed each day, but the question remains. Are they stopping? I find it nonsensical that there could be any reason that […]
Another Friday, another piece spotlighting the women behind Teakisi. This week we head to the largest East African country that is known for its exotic wildlife, rich culture and ancient cities. Who is … I’m Eunice Tossy, a 25 year old Tanzanian woman, who is on a journey to learn more about Africa, being African […]
by TeakisiBy Caroline Numuhire The 2019 International Women’s Day’ theme was Balance for Better. I loved how, as women, we did not focus on the traditional fight against men, but rather on women taking care of themselves, and each other. My intimate, personal experience with most women has been a different aura from the public, passionate […]
Je n’en ai pas fait depuis longtemps. Je vois cela comme ma petite façon de mettre en lumière les femmes africaines extraordinaires qui croient en moi et en ce que j’essaie de réaliser avec Teakisi. La prochaine étape de notre “Take Ten” est … Qui êtes-vous ? Je m’appelle Christelle Ahia Kamanan, femme, la trentaine, […]
by Salha KaitesiWhen you are black or a person of colour in the UK, the United States and in many other countries where white people are the predominant race, you get to know of all the ‘intricacies, contradictions and double standards’ of racism. There is no such thing as being neutral or siting on the fence when […]
by TeakisiBy Winnie Kyomuhendo “I am not my hair I am not this skin I am a soul that lives within” India Arie A woman’s hair has often been described as her crown, a symbol of her identity and sometimes a window into her personality. If you wear your hair pony-tailed without a single strand out […]

I absolutely loved the Blogging 101 course by Teakisi. The knowledge Salha has is evident from the advice that she gives, testament to her years of experience in the field. The amount of content in this course is of incredible value. The step by step process she has produced is clear cut and easy to follow. I thoroughly enjoyed the live demo to see how to create a blog post. She was able to answer all of my queries regarding how to do well as a future blogger. If you really want to start a blog, this course will give you a solid foundation to do just that. She condenses so many days, weeks, even months of research, into a concise programme. I can see this course being delivered in schools, colleges, and more, because of the ease in accessibility, set-up and content. Thank you so much taking your time to deliver the course, I’m very excited at the prospect of starting my own blog!
This course has given me a comprehensive view of resources that I can use to design my own blog. I loved the step by step guide, and Salha showed a high level of expertise and professionalism. Highly recommended!
