\ Jisie ike!* (Take courage!) I’m Eluwa, an Igbo teacher from Nigeria now sharing our rich language and culture from Canada. With over 10 years teaching in Abuja schools, I specialize in making Igbo engaging for kids and beginners through songs, cartoons, and folktales—tools I created as a published Igbo textbook author. Whether you’re reconnecting with roots or starting fresh, let’s learn with joy!" I am also an Igbo author and have written textbook series approved by the Education Resource Center. The body responsible for recommending school text books. I also have Igbo cartoons, Kiddies songs and animated dramas in Igbo for various age groups to help in learning efficiently. I have organised cultural dance and songs for students during inter-school competitions and presentations when i was the head of department of Igbo Language in Abuja. I incorporate video songs when teaching kids at beginner level, I have a quite number of them that cover topics on Alphabet, numbers, birds, animals, greetings, cleanliness and many more. short comprehensive reading and dialogue lessons are provided as the student progresses. There's also short fable stories for kids to keep them focused at the given time. Pictures and demonstrations are used to also create a sense of humour and real life events. Interrogation is often emphasized on to keep response flowing in from student's side.

First class was great! We were able to learn quite a lot in an hour. Looking forward to more lessons. It was a very casual and informative lecture.
