About Me

Bonjour !

I am a passionate French tutor dedicated to making language learning engaging, practical, and accessible for everyone. Currently, I serve as an online tutor at the Language Academy and work as a peer tutor here at Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU).

Because of my background in peer tutoring, I understand firsthand the challenges students face when picking up a new language. I believe that learning French should be an exciting adventure, not a chore! My teaching philosophy centers on building real-world conversational confidence right from day one. I like to keep my classes interactive, supportive, and completely stress-free. Whether we are diving into essential grammar rules or practicing daily vocabulary, I break concepts down into simple, easy-to-digest steps so you never feel overwhelmed.

My Methods & Experience
Every student learns differently, which is why I combine my university tutoring experience with dynamic online methods to match your specific goals and pace. In our sessions, we will focus on:

Active Speaking: Getting you comfortable talking about everyday topics and perfecting your pronunciation.

Practical Grammar & Vocabulary: Learning the language structure through relevant, contextual examples rather than rigid memorization.

Interactive Tools: Utilizing digital resources, tailored worksheets, and real-time feedback to keep lessons dynamic and fun.

Who I Love to Teach
I welcome students of all ages and backgrounds! Thanks to my experience both at the academy and the university level, I particularly enjoy teaching:

Absolute Beginners who are taking their very first steps into the French language.

Intermediate Learners & University Peers looking to polish their conversational flow, ace their coursework, or overcome the fear of speaking.

Students & Professionals who need a structured, encouraging environment to meet their academic or career goals.

No matter your starting point, my goal is to create a comfortable space where you feel safe making mistakes because that is exactly how we learn! I look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your French language goals. Let’s get started!

I am a trained French teacher with a degree in linguistics. I have been teaching since 2012 and I support candidates in improving their French and preparing for official exams.

The preparation is fully tailored to your level, the date of your exam and the skills you need to strengthen.

We are working on the different challenges:
- listening comprehension;
- understanding of written texts;
- written production;
- oral production.

The goal is not only to improve your French, but also to understand what examiners expect and to learn how to respond effectively to exam instructions.

Depending on your needs, we can work on methodology, organization of ideas, argumentation, grammar, vocabulary, time management and correction of written or oral productions.

Exercises and practice topics may be offered between lessons to track your progress and identify areas that require more work.

As the exam approaches, we can also carry out simulations under conditions close to the real test, particularly for oral production.

Before we begin, simply tell me the diploma and level you are preparing for, the scheduled date of the exam, and the difficulties you wish to work on as a priority.

Möchten Sie Ihr Französisch auffrischen, leichter sprechen und sich in Gesprächen sicherer fühlen?
Als französische Muttersprachlerin begleite ich Sie mit einem persönlichen, entspannten und praxisnahen Unterricht. Sprechen in this old English language and rich content at different levels, interests and personal interests.
Ob Conversation, Aussprache, Wortschatz, Grammatik, Reisen, Alltag oder Französisch im Beruf – wir konzentrieren uns auf das, was Sie wirklich brauchen.
It is 27 days in Munich and is written in Deutsch and English. Dehalb cann ich schwierige Punkte bei Bedarf auch auf Deutsch oder Englisch erklären.
Durch meine berufliche Erfahrung im Recruiting kann ich Sie ausserdem bei beruflichen Zielen unterstützen, zum Beispiel bei der Vorbereitung auf ein Vorstellungsgespräch auf Französisch, bei der Presentation Ihres beruflichen Werdegangs oder beim Überarbeiten Ihres Lebenslaufs.
Besonders wichtig ist mir, dass Sie sich wohlfühlen und sich trauen zu sprechen. Then you get to the Lernen – and the Unterricht darf also Spas machen!
Anfänger, Wiedereinsteiger und Fortgeschrittene sind herzlich kommen.
