Kiltinou

Krik?

You already know it.
Now say it out loud.

Kiltinou turns spoken answers into courses. We ask the questions, you answer them one at a time from a phone or a laptop, and each answer becomes a lesson. There is no course builder to learn and nothing to type.

Already taught this before? Send us the syllabus, the notes, the handouts. We'll build the questions from your own material, so you're reacting to your work rather than starting over.

What do you teach?

Each one works the same way. The questions are different.

Scholars

History, research, and the archive

What did ordinary people in Cap-Haïtien actually eat in 1820, and how do we know?

Krik

Chefs

Cooking, baking, and the food of home

How do you know when the epis is right? What are you looking for?

Krik

Musicians

Playing, singing, and making records

What makes a kompa bassline sit correctly? Why do so many people get it wrong?

Krik

Artists

Painting, sculpture, and craft

Where do the sequins on a drapo come from, and why those colours?

Krik

Storytellers

Oral tradition, writing, and language

How does a Bouki and Malis story actually open? What has to happen first?

Krik

Teaching something not listed? Write to us anyway. The list grows when someone asks.

From question to course

Four stages, one of which is yours

  1. 1

    We write the questions

    You tell us the subject. If you've taught or cooked or played it before, send whatever you already have and we'll draw the questions from that. Either way you get a list back to cut, add to, and reorder. That edited list is your syllabus.

  2. 2

    You record the answers

    One link, one question at a time, from a phone or a laptop. Re-record any answer as often as you like. Nobody is waiting on a call, and there is no session to schedule.

    Your part ends here
  3. 3

    We shape the lessons

    Each recording is transcribed and edited into readable prose, with draft quiz questions. Anything we were unsure about is flagged for you rather than guessed at.

  4. 4

    You approve, then it's live

    You read the draft, fix what we got wrong, and publish. Nothing reaches a student until you say so.

Teach in the language you think in

Every course is taught in one language, chosen by the person teaching it. We don't translate. Something explained in the language you reason in is better than the same thing rendered into a language you merely work in.
