My goal is to help you improve your French skills for personal or academic purposes. I adapt to your goals and your time. Homework can be assigned if necessary. I have graduated with high honors on my French exams and have experience with children and teenagers, but adult lessons are also fine :)

About Me
Hi there! I’m 24, and I’m passionate about both brain and body.
Currently, I’m doing my PhD in Neuroscience at the University of Helsinki. I’m fascinated by how the brain works, and my research is all about combining neuroscience techniques with psychology to better understand what’s going on up there. It’s a lot of work, but I love the challenge!

When I’m not working in the lab, you’ll probably find me swimming, cycling, or running. I’m actually training for a triathlon right now! I also enjoy reading, and even more so now that I’m living abroad. It feels great to still dive into some French books every now and then. I’ve always loved literature, and actually, I was better at it than science in school (don’t ask me why I chose this path ahah). Now, I’d love to help others appreciate French grammar a little more!

I’ve spent several years as both an artistic gymnast and coach, working with athletes of all ages and skill levels to help them reach their full potential. It’s been an amazing experience and has taught me a lot about teamwork, patience, encouragement, and how to help others believe in themselves.

Hello! I’m Nava, a French tutor with over 5 years of teaching experience. My passion for the French language started in high school. I’ve always loved languages and wanted to learn new ones, so I decided: why not French, such a beautiful language?

I studied French language and literature at university in Iran, starting from zero knowledge of French. After just one year, I discovered my passion for teaching. I loved helping my classmates with grammar, expressions, and understanding different structures. It made me genuinely happy! This led me to complete an internship as a semi-tutor at an international language institute in Iran, which was the beginning of my teaching journey. During this time, I learned how to personalise lessons for different students and how to create a warm, supportive space for learning French. Even when using textbooks, I always tried to make them more engaging and enjoyable.

In 2023, I decided to continue my studies, this time in Finland. I am currently a Master’s student at Åbo Akademi University. At this point, I asked myself: why not share my experience of learning French from zero to a higher level with others?

In the middle of my Master’s studies, I wanted to experience studying in France. For every French teacher and learner, this is often a dream, and mine came true. ✨ I was accepted for an Erasmus exchange in France for five months, where I studied a Master’s in FLE (French as a Foreign Language).

During my exchange, I also completed a three-month internship at CIEF (Centre International d’Études Françaises), one of the well-known French language institutes, where I worked as a teaching assistant. It was an incredible experience that allowed me to grow as a teacher and truly immerse myself in French language education.

I understand how challenging it can be to start a new language from scratch. I know the difficulties, and I want to create a relaxed, supportive, and stress-free environment where you can learn French with confidence and joy.

If you want to experience a fun, interactive, and inspiring French learning journey, I’m here for you! 💙
