About Me

Bonjour ! My name is Yussuf Ajibola and 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 French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.

🖐🏻 HI, SALUT, MERHABA! 🖐🏻
How are you doing? Comment allez-vous? Nasılsınız?
Thanks for having a look at my profile!
Here is the pathway we will follow in our lessons!
We will start our lessons by learning the most basic skills such as correct pronunciation and simple grammar rules.
We will continue to improve our speaking, listening and grammar levels by learning new informations step by step.
Based on my 13 years of experience, I think that A1 level is a very important period in language learning. When learning any language, beginner level students should learn it in the correct order and important details should be explained well by practising previous ones. Students at more advanced levels, such as A2, B1 or above, also need to practice their skills at the previous level thoroughly to improve their language skills. I try to provide good teaching by paying attention to these important points in my lessons. I keep our lessons' notes in a word file. After our lessons, I send you back all the additional notes and exercises that we covered in our lesson as a Word file.

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.

- Progressive objectives: we set short and long term objectives together to motivate the student.
- Learning techniques: I use interactive methods (online exercises, educational games) and revision sheets to help memorize and understand key concepts (flashcards, etc.)

Type of sessions:
- Course of the sessions:
- Review of previous concepts: 10-15 minutes to review the points covered during the last lesson.
- Lesson of the day: 30-45 minutes to present and explain a new concept.
- Practical exercises: 20-30 minutes to apply what has been learned, offering exercises adapted to the student's level.
- Questions and corrections: 10-15 minutes at the end to answer the student's questions and correct mistakes together.

So what are you waiting for? Join me for an unforgettable adventure!

Learn French, English or Spanish in a natural and effective way

With over 17 years of experience in language teaching, I have developed an immersive and contextual method that allows you to learn a language like you learn your mother tongue: by understanding, using and living the language from the very first lesson.

My method is based on a simple principle: communication before memorization. Instead of accumulating vocabulary lists or isolated grammar rules, you learn the language through real-life situations, dialogues, stories, images, videos, and conversations tailored to your level.

What distinguishes my method:

* Gradual immersion from the very first lesson.
* Clear explanations tailored to your profile.
* Simultaneous development of comprehension and oral expression.
* Correction of pronunciation in real-world context.
* Natural acquisition of vocabulary and grammar.
* Customized support tailored to your objectives.
* Emphasis placed on confidence and fluency in speaking.

I teach teenagers, adults, professionals, and students who wish to:

* Improve their conversation.
* Prepare for an exam (DELF, TCF, TEF, IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC, DELE, etc.).
* To travel or settle abroad.
* Use the language in a professional context.
* Develop a more natural pronunciation.

Each lesson is designed as a hands-on experience where you actively use the language rather than passively study it. My goal is to help you speak with confidence, spontaneity, and accuracy as quickly as possible.
