Our team will provide templates of language curriculum. Each teacher is responsible for developing their own curriculum while maintaining the core of the language pedagogy and professionalism of LingoAfrica.

You will need a laptop/desktop computer with video and audio capabilities and a stable internet connection for teaching students. Teachers will use a zoom for the virtual classrooms. On some occasion, class will be conducted using google meet.

At LingoAfrica, we follow strict rules and guidelines to ensure the safety of our teachers and students. We expect the highest level of professionalism from both our students and teachers. If teachers are being harassed, we request an email be sent to info@lingoafrica.us providing the details of the harassment. After completing an investigation and the student is found liable, the student’s account will be suspended.
