First lesson went great! Excited to get more practice in as time goes. I'm already looking at my calendar to schedule more lessons. I learned more about Wolof in my first lesson from Yaya after seeing it in writing rather than just speaking it which really helped!

Yaya is a great Wolof teacher! He dives straight into Wolof from day 1. Not only he teaches you words, grammar, pronunciation, but he also shows you how the language actually works compared to other languages. He's also incredibly patient and positive. Absolutely recommended to anyone interested in learning this beautiful language!

Yaya is a great Wolof teacher. I had not practiced Wolof in many years and he was able to help me pick up where I left off.

Excellent first lesson. The teacher was patient, explained the basics of 'être' and prepositions clearly, and even gave extra time. Looking forward to more.

I’ve been taking lessons with Yaya on italki, and I’m really happy with the experience so far. He is a great teacher—very patient, encouraging, and supportive throughout the lessons. Each week we make steady progress, which keeps me motivated and confident. Yaya creates a comfortable learning environment where I feel free to practice and make mistakes. He takes the time to explain things clearly and adapts to my pace. I will definitely continue taking more lessons with him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a friendly and effective teacher!

Yaya is a fantastic tutor who explains even difficult concepts in a clear and simple way. He’s patient, supportive, and always makes sure you truly understand the material. His positive energy and engaging teaching style make every session enjoyable, turning learning into a fun and rewarding experience.
