We understand that learning a new language can be isolating and daunting .
The Learn Igbo Now Club is powered by slow and beginner learners. It was built to encourage and empower YOU to reach your personal goals and become as fluent in Igbo as you can be.
We connect, learn, teach, and grow together as a global team. We’re changing the Igbo community one person, one conversation, one story at a time.
" I have been trying to achieve fluency in Igbo language since 2014. My journey has been challenging due to the lack of quality igbo learning resources. I became a member of Learn Igbo Challenge when it launched in 2020. I have waited 4 years for this type of opportunity. I will continue renewing my membership because becoming fluent in the Igbo language and learning about the igbo culture is a life long journey for me. I wish this program was offered at my university so I can use it to satisfy the language requirement needed to receive a bachelors degree. Yvonne does an excellent job teaching igbo and providing materials to help others like myself become fluent in the Igbo language while learning about the culture. Thank you Yvonne for creating these unique and helpful materials".

"Learn Igbo Now Challenge has been the key to expanding my Igbo vocabulary immensely, which has enhanced both my ability to communicate more in Igbo. I took some formal Igbo lessons before to learn the grammatical rules and tones of Igbo, and while I found those helpful, I still felt stuck in my ability to communicate in Igbo. I was one of the first to sign up for the Learn Igbo Now Challenge Membership, and I have enjoyed it. A year in, I am still learning new vocabulary, and when I watch Igbo shows or news, I am able to understand so much more than I would have a year ago. I love learning not just vocabulary but Igbo songs, some of which I can teach my kids, and learning about different aspects of Igbo culture and important people in Igbo history. I can tell that Yvonne dedicates a lot of time into developing these stories and dialogues, and I’m still a participant 2 years later because I continue to learn immensely. I am excited about the prospect of this program for kids because I know that this will enhance their ability to speak and help me achieve my goal of us being a completely Igbo speaking family."
