I am a social person with good interpersonal skill and as a tutor i think the best methods for teaching would be the cooperative one, where students can work together and learn from one another. And also the modeling one, as it is important to tell the student what to do, he/she should know how to do it. Through giving clear explanations and example in order to yield positive outcomes.

  • Do you speak this language fluently because of your origins or because a teacher inspired you to learn it?

    I speak the language fluently because I grew up in a french speaking country. I learnt it from my parents , to school and from interacting with people.
  • Can you name a living, historical or fictional character that you think is the emblematic representative of the language's culture?

    Something that reminds me french is a popular cartoon named Kirikou that explains the myths and lifestyle of old time africans .
  • Is there a typical word, phrase, tradition or behaviour in the language that you particularly like?

    yes, there's this saying that my french teacher in high school used to say « on ne déshabille pas saint pierre pour habiller saint paul »
    Meaning finding a solution shouldn't be to the detriment of someone else.
  • Why does speaking this language matter to you?

    French matters to me as it is my native language, I speak it with my family on a daily basis and it always reminds me where I come from.
  • What is the main difficulty in learning this language, and what can help students with the learning process?

    French accent and grammatical rules are the trickiest in my opinion, I will help my students by making sure from the start that they master phonetics and learn grammar in an interesting and fun way.
  • Could you share an anecdote related to your language learning or your student days?

    Sometimes we had low grades in school and one of our teachers was repeating the same phrase over the years, « Que faisiez-vous au temps chaud? » it's a saying from a very popular french fable « la Cigale et la fourmi ». It means « what were you doing when it was time to work? »
  • How has travel or a specific experience helped you to increase your understanding and appreciation of the language?

    Traveling had me learning a new language from scratch and realised that communication is key to creating relationships.
    I also realised that the people from countries I've been to really value their native languages and struggled to speak foreign ones. That's where I saw the opportunity to teach french and value this unique skill .
  • What makes you a Superprof?

    What makes me a Superprof is my teaching approach , I create a good environment with the student and have positive and encouraging ways to teach the language. I adapt quickly to different levels and make sure they learn practical things that they will not forget.
