Yorùbá Linguist at Koyo, auditing language content for accurate spelling and tonal marks.

Nigeria
Message

At Koyo, I review and audit Yorùbá content for linguistic accuracy, correct spelling, and appropriate tonal marks. I also document inconsistencies in dictionaries, learning modules, and lessons.

I facilitate live Yorùbá language sessions, helping learners develop oral fluency and conversational skills. My work draws on my experience translating English expressions into idiomatic Yorùbá and explaining their cultural context.

Before Koyo, I taught English Language and Literature at JIBWIS Science College and Dominion Comprehensive College, and taught primary pupils at Dominion Nursery and Primary School. I also contributed to campus radio broadcasts and to editing and producing Anthill Magazine.
