Reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Yasmin B., UK-Ethiopia​

“Not just learning, but connecting.”

I joined ROAR from London as a diaspora African looking to reconnect. The live events and community chat made me feel plugged into a pan-African tech movement. It’s real.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Tosin, Lagos, Nigeria

“ROAR feels like home and future in one place.”
As a Nigerian developer looking to transition into product design, ROAR gave me more than just content—it gave me context. I finally felt seen.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Kwame Edem, Instructor & Founder, Ghana

“I’m proud to teach here.”
I’ve taught on global platforms, but ROAR gave me the chance to share African-centered innovation stories with learners who get it. The engagement is unmatched.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Kezia Wairimu, Entrepreneur, Kenya

“This is what we’ve been waiting for.”
I’m based in Nairobi and run a small creative agency. ROAR’s business toolkits and HR tracks helped me train my team without outsourcing abroad. The content is fresh, local, and practical.
