Why AI, at a language school?

AI belongs in a room like this.

At Patio, we are more than a language school. We are a small community in Lagos focused on conversation, learning by doing, and helping people feel settled in a new place.

These AI courses fit naturally into that approach. Like our language classes, they are small, in person, and practical, with no jargon and no pressure. AI is becoming part of everyday life and work, and learning it in a simple, supported setting is often the most effective way to build real confidence.

Small groups

A handful of learners, so there’s time for your questions and your pace.

Face-to-face in Lagos

In person at Patio, where you can look over and ask as you go.

Guided hands-on practice

You’ll do it, not just watch it, on real, everyday examples.

No background needed

Plain language throughout. If you can use a browser, you can do this.

Your host

Meet Arek Adeoye.

Arek Adeoye

The workshops are led by Arek Adeoye, who has called Lagos home for six years. He runs Web Project Studios, building practical AI workflows and automation for real businesses.

Arek has spent twenty-five years building software, with the last few focused entirely on putting AI to real work: tools that research, draft and handle everyday tasks, always with a person in the loop. He teaches the way he builds, in plain language, hands-on, and grounded in what genuinely helps.

He designed these workshops as a clear, practical, and accessible way to use AI after seeing friends and family curious but unsure how to apply it safely and effectively in their personal and professional lives, bridging that gap.

How it works

What to expect.

Each course runs as four weekly two-hour sessions in our room in Lagos. Sessions are hands-on: short, plain-language explanations followed by guided practice, so you leave each week having actually done things, on examples that matter to you.

Bring your own device

You’ll practise on your own laptop so what you learn is ready to use at home or at work. Just ask if that’s tricky and we’ll help.

Where

Patio Language School, Praça do Poder Local, Lote 14, Loja C, 8600-524 Lagos.

Four weeks, two hours

A short, friendly commitment: one two-hour session a week for four weeks.
