What Our Students & Parents Are Saying

E ku ise o!


Teaching the kiddos about things I don't even know, i.e. the grilled fish business.

I'm jealous! Lol.

Thanks for the knowledge that you're impacting. We appreciate you all!

Mrs. Osaloni

I give this program 5 Stars! I started the program at the age of 38 only know a few Yoruba greetings, thinking I was too old to start learning. I joined the class in hopes of learning and teaching my 2 year old son too. The class puts you in an environment where you feel comfortable to try and push yourself. My son can understand and speak certain Yoruba words and phrases now. I was able to speak Yoruba as part of my wedding vows and now working on giving a toast at my mom's 70th birthday. Thank you!


Dr. Olatunde

I have been meaning to reach out to say a BIG Thank YOU for the Yoruba Basics course. I am so grateful. The teachers are great,they keep the kids engaged. Although I speak primarily Yoruba to the kids, having a way to teach them didactically is a gold mine for us in the diaspora. God Bless.
