Thank you for visiting us online today. We are here to take you on a journey to discover and appreciate the Igbo language and the culture to which it gives expression.
Perhaps you are an Igbo adult who did not get a chance to speak Igbo as a child and it bothers you now that your heritage language is steadily falling out of use and may be facing an uncertain future. Or you may be an Igbo youth growing up at home or in the Diaspora but with a limited exposure to your heritage language. Or you are a parent who regrets not speaking Igbo to your children when they were much younger and now would like to make it up to them.
You may also be a teacher looking for some effective learning resources for your pupils; a foreigner hoping to visit Igbo land sometime and would like to be able to communicate with the people when you get there; a spouse from a different ethnic background but married to an Igbo man or woman and would like to be able to communicate better with your loved ones at home.
Whatever your interest or level of expertise in this language, we are here to help. We would like to introduce you to our very own robust and comprehensive package of Igbo language learning tools. Our book, Ìgbò – Our Mother Language (now in its second edition) is a book for all ages and all categories of learners. In it, you will discover Igbo language made easy. Our online Interactive Audio trainer demonstrates our belief that the key to learning a language is having a vocal role model. Both of these materials are designed to help you teach yourself (or someone else) the Igbo language. The materials are easy to read and also easy to follow. You will find them a great reference guide to the Basic Concepts and Essentials of Igbo grammar. But even if it is not for yourself, the package would make a useful present for that niece or nephew or friend’s child who is so eager to connect with their heritage language.
You will also find on our website some very useful links to varieties of Igbo knowledge base covering the Igbo people, the Igbo language, Igbo culture, Igbo history, and Igbo traditions, including Igbo Masquerade, Igbo music, Igbo wrestling, Igbo traditional wedding, Igbo New Yam festival and a whole lot more. We have every confidence that you will enjoy every moment of your tour.
We hope that you like what you see. If you do, please tell your friends. If not, please let us know how we may be able to improve on what we do.
Thank you.
