I spent 6 weeks in person learning Igbo with Edith, along with having a few lessons online with her prior to meeting in person. After my time, I was able to have basic conversations in Igbo. The classes aren't structured in a way that most Western language classes are structured, but Edith is very resourceful and able to make sure you learn what's important very quickly. Edith was able to adapt to my learning style very quickly and teach me the specific dialect I was focused on, while making sure I learned Central Igbo as well. She was not only able to teach me grammar, but also the cultural nuances for why certain words were used in one case over another. As a result of this it helped me connect things I have seen growing up in my life but never had a solid understanding or appreciation for. Igbo is such a philosophical language, and I feel to really teach/learn and appreciate it, you have to also have an understanding of the cultural practices along with how life was perceived (when the language was initially formed). Edith has these skills, and I have recommended her to friends and family. I will continue to take classes with her in the future.
