To learn to speak it, you’ll have to have people to talk with. That might be hard to arrange. But here’s what you can do in the meantime. Learn to read it! Get a "teach yourself" book, make flashcards, and find some easy texts to read, especially one’s that exist with an English translation to help you. The Bible is an obvious choice.

In my opinion, the above is one of the best and most complete courses for learning the language on or offline…
Rosetta Stone will teach you how to say several basic sentences in Swahili, useful, practical sentences such as "This dog is brown." After wasting dozens and dozens of hours and hundreds and hundreds of dollars on Rosetta Stone, you won’t even be able to make it one day in a Swahili speaking area. Just my opinion based on experience. (not with Swahili, though)
Google it.
The Kamusi project has some useful stuff. http://kamusiproject.org/
Tigris has a good suggestion and a good website! But when you’ve learned some early basics, you certainly could benefit from practicing!
I used to live in Tanzania and I did pretty good talking in Swahili — I lived in the village, and most people knew very little or no English. I came back to the States 3 years ago, and I could really use the practice if you’d like to "pen pal" a bit! My grammar isn’t perfect by any means, but I myself would love the chance to stay in practice. I could always write in both languages so you can see translations…
I also have quite a few friends back in Tanzania who would love to have a pen pal also, if you would like.
Just a friendly offer of help!
Just more practice in using the language
