Esther O.
French Language Tutor
Experienced French Language Tutor
Having spent a great deal of time in the classroom, I have come across all types of learning style and can alter my approach accordingly. I am genuinely enthused by my subject and aim to project my passion for all languages. I enjoy breaking down and demystifying the more complex aspects of language-learning and my experience of different types of syllabus has given me a great deal of confidence when teaching exam technique.
About
I hold a Bachelor's degree in French from the University of Lagos Nigeria, a Diploma and a Master's degree in teaching French as a second or foreign language from the Universite de Strasbourg and a Master's degree in International Affairs from the Universite de La Rochelle. I have a progressive teaching experience of about ten years, teaching French, English Language and Yoruba Language. I have trained numerous non Speakers of these languages and can guarantee success within a short period of time.
I have trained students for different external exams such as WAEC, NECO and JAMB and have recorded fantastic results in all. I push my students to be better versions of themselves, not only academically but also morally.
I believe that knowledge adds value to one's life and ignorance is no bliss. I use modern day teaching techniques focusing on the needs of the student and relating each topic to real life situations hence building confidence and making learning much faster.
