Aligns with School Schedule
We meet on weekends, so the program doesn't interfere with school schedules. From September to May, our students learn about an important part of Yoruba culture every week. Our curriculum covers useful conversational skills, mythology, history, geography, culinary, and more!
-
Our curriculum is developed based on Indiana University's National African Language Resource Center which emphasizes "Big Ideas" and "Enduring Understandings"
-
Once a month, our students take a virtual field trip where they can apply their newly acquired language skills.
-
Not only do we limit class size for better interaction among the students, we also assign classes by age group so that students can learn in a socially safe space. The groupings also allows the students to learn at a level that is appropriate for them.
-
We know today kids are busy. They have school work, after school activities, sports and more! That is why we have tailored our classes to be short, fun and educational!
