What I'm looking for

I’m interested in Yoruba language and AI language roles where I can help improve AI systems through accurate, natural Yoruba language content and evaluation.

At Preply, I delivered 638 Yoruba lessons to 45 students, with 15 currently active. I teach practical conversation, pronunciation, vocabulary, and sentence construction, and create lessons and learning materials around each student's needs.

As an independent Yoruba tutor, I have taught learners—including learners in the diaspora through Zoom—since 2020. I use ChatGPT and Claude to support lesson preparation and quiz development, and review AI-generated learning content for suitability and consistency with Yoruba usage.

At Real Uncut, I managed project planning and execution through client acceptance, coordinating vendors, budgets, schedules, and deliverables. Earlier, at First City Monument Bank, I worked in business development and market research, researching customer needs and supporting client relationships.
