What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote or classroom-friendly roles where I can teach Yoruba with cultural responsiveness, support learner progress through clear assessment and feedback, and collaborate on language-focused projects.

I’m a native Yoruba language educator and remote learning specialist with expertise in Yoruba instruction, language assessment, cultural communication, and practical learner support. I teach beginner-to-advanced students and help diaspora and heritage learners strengthen fluency while understanding culturally accurate language use.

Since 2022, I’ve delivered one-on-one and group Yoruba lessons covering pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, conversational skills, and tone marks. I create customized lesson plans, monitor learner progress, and provide structured feedback to improve performance while keeping learning engaging and culturally inclusive.

I also support classroom-based instruction and language development through guided practice, interactive activities, and assignments that build confidence in real communication. Alongside teaching, I contribute culturally informed writing for international audiences and apply my skills in AI language evaluation, translation, and linguistic support to remote educational and localization-style projects.
