I've been using YapTime to improve and learn more Yoruba. It's easy and flexible as you can book sessions around your availability. My sisters are now also using YapTime.

Huge fan of Yaptime, I’m actually learning to speak Yoruba!!

The lessons have been great my teacher Kemi is so encouraging and I can see the progress I’ve made. I’ve done Yoruba lessons before the more traditional way (one hour a week) and have never gotten this far in terms of speaking and reading ability. Also customer service is great, if you have any problems they are very responsive. I’m very glad I tried this.

Prompt and supportive Igbo tuition

Prompt and supportive Igbo tuition from a local native speaker. Arranging sessions was easy, as was having them over WhatsApp. The follow on resources at the end of each session were really useful to help build my knowledge.I found myself keen to learn more and develop my speaking and thinking in Igbo each session.

Time and money well spent!

I thoroughly enjoyed using Yaptime to learn Yoruba. My instructor, Adebamike, was very hands on. She challenged and encouraged me. I've already recommended Yaptime to my family and friends. Just 10 minutes a day is really all you need to learn a new skill. Thank you Andrew for creating this platform!

Learning a language made easy

The tutors are amazing. They are patient, flexible, and really take the time to understand how you learn. Their conversational style made picking up Yoruba feel natural, engaging, and genuinely enjoyable. I have made real progress in a short time, and I feel much more confident using the language in everyday conversations. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for supportive and effective language learning.

I have been so busy and I wanted to learn my own mother tongue as I am really not good with languages. Yaptime has been the perfect platform for me to learn and I am already speaking to my parents with my mothers tongue just after 2 months.

Wonderful Language Learning Style and Service

I have only positive things to say about my experience with YapTime. The methodology of learning a language for 10 minutes a day really helps you to etch words and phrases into your memory, and also caters to busy professionals with limited time during their day. My tutor had a great knowledge of the language and provided tangible resources to look over in my own time if I wanted to. She was very patient and made sure the pace was perfect for a complete beginner like me. I would highly recommend the service.

Business Details

  • YapTime, created by Andrew Osayemi (co-creator of the Netflix show Meet the Adebanjos), helps members of the African diaspora reconnect with their language through simple 10-minute daily WhatsApp conversations with friendly native tutors.

    Starting with Yoruba and expanding into more African languages, YapTime is designed for busy professionals and students who need flexible lessons that fit into real life. Learners choose a time that works for them Monday to Friday and receive personalised voice notes and pronunciation tips after each call.

    Over time, students move naturally from basic greetings to confident, meaningful conversations with family and friends. YapTime isn’t just language learning — it’s cultural reconnection, one conversation at a time.

    The platform was inspired by Andrew’s own journey after struggling for years to learn Yoruba himself and realising that real progress comes from short, consistent practice — not long, overwhelming lessons.

    We know life can be hectic, so YapTime is built around daily flexibility. You choose a time that works for you, and your tutor adapts around your schedule. Even on the busiest days, 10 minutes is enough to keep your momentum going and build confidence step by step.

    Every learner is matched with a tutor based on their goals, pace, and availability. Lessons run Monday to Friday, with personalised voice notes and pronunciation tips after each call. Over time, learners move naturally from simple greetings to meaningful everyday conversations.

    Today, YapTime is more than language learning — it’s cultural reconnection.
    We’ve begun with Yoruba and are expanding into more African languages, helping people everywhere speak with confidence and pride, one conversation at a time.See more
