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!

My name is Fawzi, and I am a French language teacher. Since 2012, I have been giving private lessons online. My objective is to support learners towards success in the DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) or the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), as well as the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have had the pleasure of helping many students of different nationalities through my online courses. For me, helping enthusiasts practice the French language is an enriching experience, because I understand the importance of success in the lives of ambitious people.

I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English and a little Turkish. During my classes, I explain concepts in French, Arabic or Spanish, depending on your preference. At the end of each session, I offer exercises to do as homework, in order to identify your gaps and monitor your progress.

Here are some essential points to know about the DELF and DALF:
- The DELF (Diploma in French Language Studies) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two high-quality official diplomas. They are aligned with the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and cover the following six levels, from the most basic to the most advanced: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
- The DELF B2 and, increasingly, the DALF C1, provide access to French, European or French-speaking universities, as well as certain Grandes Ecoles.

If you plan to take DELF or DALF exams, or if you want to improve your level, do not hesitate to book your sessions with me to start preparation. I am available !

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Learning French can be challenging, especially when you're just starting out, but even after months or years of study. Having structured, high-quality guidance is essential if you want to communicate confidently and speak about the topics that matter to you.

My lessons combine conversation practice, listening activities with authentic videos, grammar explained in a simple way, vocabulary building, quizzes, exercises, and interactive games. Every lesson is adapted to your level, your learning pace, and your personal goals, whether you want to travel, work, study, prepare for an exam, or simply enjoy speaking French.

I believe that learning should be both effective and enjoyable. That's why I create a friendly and encouraging atmosphere where you can make mistakes, ask questions, and gain confidence without feeling judged.

All of my French as a Foreign Language (FLE) lessons are exclusively for women.

Why women only? Because I want to create a comfortable, supportive environment where we can build confidence, connect openly, and discuss topics that are meaningful and relevant to us.

Whether you're a complete beginner or already have some knowledge of French, I'll be happy to help you achieve your language goals. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your French learning journey!
