About Speak Ghana

Our story, our values, and the people dedicated to helping you reconnect with your roots

Our Story

Speak Ghana was born from a simple observation: millions of people in the diaspora long to connect with their Ghanaian heritage, but don't know where to start. Language is the key that unlocks identity, culture, and belonging.

Founded by Richard Asiamah and Charlotte Tetebea Asiamah, our school began with one simple goal: to help diaspora learners speak Ghanaian languages confidently and reconnect with their roots. What started as a few private lessons has grown into a community of learners worldwide.

Today, we offer structured courses in Twi, Ga, Ewe, Fante, and Dagbani. Our mission remains the same: one word at a time, we're bringing people home.

"We believe that language is the key that unlocks identity, heritage, and belonging. Every word learned is a step closer to home."
