About Us
Welcome to the Yoruba Language & Culture Institute, the leading Yoruba Language and Culture school in Houston, Texas. Founded by passionate Yoruba speakers based in the USA, our school aims to bridge the gap between Yoruba natives and the younger generation growing up in western democracies. We understand the challenges faced by children of Yoruba origin who have limited exposure to their rich language and cultural heritage. Our mission is to provide a nurturing environment where students can learn, appreciate, and embrace the Yoruba language and culture.
With both online and onsite classes, we offer a flexible approach to accommodate the diverse needs of our students. Whether you are a child of Yoruba natives seeking to reconnect with your roots, a parent looking to enhance your language skills, or a student interested in learning Yoruba as a foreign language, the Yoruba Language & Culture Institute is here to guide you on your language journey.
At the Yoruba Language & Culture Institute, we are proud of our team of experienced Yoruba native speakers who are dedicated to teaching Yoruba and sharing their cultural knowledge. Our instructors bring a deep understanding and passion for the language, ensuring an engaging and immersive learning experience. We believe that language acquisition is not just about vocabulary and grammar; it is about embracing an entire culture and its unique worldview.
Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to cater to students of all levels, from beginners to advanced learners. We combine interactive lessons, cultural activities, and authentic resources to provide a comprehensive learning experience. By immersing our students in the vibrant Yoruba culture, we aim to develop well-rounded individuals who are not only fluent in the language but also well-versed in Yoruba customs, traditions, and values.
Beyond the classroom, the Institute is committed to fostering a strong sense of community. We organize cultural events, workshops, and celebrations that bring together students, parents, and Yoruba language enthusiasts. We believe in the power of connection and the importance of building meaningful relationships that extend beyond our school’s walls.
Join us at the Yoruba Language & Culture Institute and embark on a journey of discovery, connection, and growth. Whether you wish to strengthen your ties to your Yoruba heritage or explore a fascinating new language and culture, we are here to guide you every step of the way.

What Students Say
Feedback
I enjoyed the class a lot. It was extremely useful to attend a Yoruba class led by people who not only know the language but can also teach it and provide real-time feedback and additional context. For me, that was invaluable. Additionally, I enjoyed the group format because it was helpful to hear others speak and gave us to the opportunity to learn from each other’s successes and failures.

This class was very helpful in not only developing my proficiency with Yoruba, but my confidence. We practice each week in our zoom meetings and as long as you practice outside of class, you will improve. I will be sure to enroll in any of their future courses!
