About Me

My name is Eluwa Nkemdirim, and i live in Canada. I taught Igbo as a teacher in both primary and secondary schools in Abuja and i worked for over 10 years with students at various levels, ranging from grade 1 to grade 9. 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.

My trial lessons

My trial class gives my students the opportunity to practise simple sentences in Igbo and point out areas that need practise. It also affords one the privilege of having a short video to practise with there by encouraging and motivating them to learn Igbo and become proficient int it.
