Experienced Yoruba Tutor in Lagos | Online & In-Person Lessons
Hello! My name is Akeem, and I am a Yoruba language tutor from Nigeria.
I teach Yoruba to children, teenagers, and adults, including complete beginners and Nigerians living abroad who want to reconnect with their Yoruba language and culture.
My lessons are practical, structured and interactive. I help learners develop their speaking, listening, vocabulary, pronunciation, reading, writing and everyday conversation skills.
For children, I use age-appropriate activities, repetition, questions and answers, conversation practice, exercises and homework to make learning Yoruba engaging and effective.
For adults, I focus on practical Yoruba that can be used in everyday situations, helping learners gradually build confidence in understanding and speaking the language.
I offer both online Yoruba lessons through Zoom and in-person lessons in Lagos by arrangement.
Whether you want to learn Yoruba for your family, culture, travel, communication with Yoruba-speaking relatives, or personal development, I will guide you step by step.
My goal is simple: to make learning Yoruba practical, enjoyable, and useful in real life.
Ẹ káàbọ̀! I look forward to helping you learn Yoruba.
Yes, Yoruba can be easy and enjoyable to learn, especially when lessons are practical and taught step by step. Beginners can quickly learn common greetings, everyday words and simple conversations. Yoruba pronunciation and tones require some practice, but with regular lessons, repetition and conversation practice, learners can make steady progress and become confident speakers.
The time it takes to learn Yoruba depends on the learner's goals, previous experience, and how regularly they practise. A complete beginner can usually learn basic greetings, everyday vocabulary and simple conversations within 2–3 months with regular lessons. With consistent study and practice over 6–12 months, learners can develop much stronger conversational skills. I tailor lessons to each student's level, age and learning goals.
