We teach the work we do every day.
Glala Academy is the teaching side of Glala Studios, a brand, web and AI studio in Nairobi. We help people learn to design, understand and build digital products, and to use AI with judgement instead of blind trust.
AI can make an app. Someone still has to know if it's any good.
Anyone can now ask AI for a website or an app. Knowing whether it solves the problem, works properly and keeps people's data safe still takes design sense and technical understanding. That's what we teach, through small live classes and real projects.
Four rules behind every course.
- 01Design before buildingUnderstand the person and the problem before opening a code editor.
- 02One real projectEvery lesson moves your own project forward, so nothing is learned in a vacuum.
- 03Check what AI gives youUse AI to go faster, and know how to tell when it's wrong.
- 04Small and honestClasses of 8, clear prices and no promises of jobs we can't guarantee.
Taught by the person who runs the studio.
Jojo, the founder of Glala Studios, is a designer and developer in Nairobi with a background in interior design and UI/UX. The studio builds brands, websites and software for real businesses, and the examples in class come from that work.
