Abstract:
Staff and students from almost every country are now learning python programming language. However, the syntax of programming languages, libraries, documentation, and instructional materials are taught and presented in English language. Non-native English speaking counties are faced with many challenges with the contents, reading and writing codes in Python. In West African countries Hausa language is one of the languages spoken by over 80 million people globally primarily found in Nigeria, Niger, Sudan, Ghana, and Cameroon. Therefore, it is imperative to teach python programming using mother’s tongue which can be understood easily by non-native English speaking country. The methodology used in this paper is python programming and Hausa languages. Results obtained indicated that there is significant increase in the rate of understanding using this technique.
