The four mathematics teacher educators to be presented here come from different regions and have different home languages. Mrs. Joshua1 and Mr. Lukhere come from the northern region of Malawi and Chitumbuka is their home language. Apart from Chitumbuka, these teacher educators can speak Chichewa (since it is a national language) and English as the official language. Both of them were teaching at Kachere TTC (Teachers Training College) in the Southern region of Malawi. In their classes, there were four major languages: Sena, Lomwe, Chichewa and Yao. These classes had very few students who could speak the teacher educators’ home language, Chitumbuka.
