Wolof is the most spoken language in Senegal and Gambia. I've designed the course for people who would like to learn to speak wolof either for family reasons or traveling.

I have also family background in Gambia, and currently living in Gambia. I am not a native speaker but learned Wolof as my second language since child. I can offer help in understanding the language and reach a certain level. I will be teaching the Wolof spoken in Gambia.

About Me
I am a kind and patient teacher who wants to make language learning fun and relaxed.I design my classes according to the student's needs and learning ways.
My native language is Finnish and I learned Wolof as my second language, because of my background. I have concluded one year intensive Wolof studies as a part of my Bachelor's degree. Currently I am living in Gambia and speaking Wolof daily. Obviously, I cannot offer you a native level understanding of the language, but I can teach you the structure and grammar of the language.
My goal as a teacher is to help students to become courageous in using the language they are learning and to have the tools to keep learning the language. My main goal is to help you to reach a goal where you can have conversations in Wolof. Repetition and conversation will play a big part in my classes.
As my academic background lies in linguistics and African studies, I want to engage the culture in the language learning. Understanding the culture will help us to understand the language as well, I believe they go hand in hand.
As I live in Gambia and have a Gambian background, I will be teaching Gambian Wolof.
Education

Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart.
I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Learn the schedules by heart.
2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results.
Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind.
I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics.
What will not be the subject of the course:
learn lists of verbs;
learn lists of nouns with their gender;
learn words with their translations;
memory card game;
doing school exercises;
follow the program in a notebook;
impose French grammar on the Latin language.
What matters to me in particular:
motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm;
encourage creativity;
make friends with language;
letters and their sounds
strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop;
teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart;
explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ;
place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice.
In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy.
I look forward to meeting you.

I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people.

Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF:
The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles.

Online lessons for English pronunciation for ESL studentsMost English courses focus on grammar and vocabulary but, if you want to be understood you’ll need to know how to speak clearly, and that means learning the key features of English pronunciation. You may think you need sound like a native speaker accent to have good English pronunciation, but this simply isn’t true.
My main areas of teaching English are improving pronunciation, increasing vocabulary and understanding grammar.
Many people have an ‘accent’ when they speak English, but they are easy to understand. In short, good pronunciation is not about accent, but rather clarity of speech.
Laura
French Lessons And Tutoring for Children and Teens. From Beginners to Advanced Levels.A class in French to learn to speak, read, and write in French. The learners are encouraged to speak in French when answering questions to learn proper sentence structure and pronunciation. A curriculum can be developed to match the learner's levels and goals with homework and a test at the end. No need to purchase books, I provide the pdf's. I am also available virtually for any questions that your learner may have during the week.
This class can also be as a tutor to support the learner's current curriculum in school is also doable. Reach out with any questions, or days and times you might prefer if you don't see anything that matches your preferences. What parent's say?:
My 7-year-old daughter's confidence in her French has grown significantly in Laura's French class. She attends a trilingual school and was initially struggling to keep up with all the languages. Laura's teaching has not only boosted her confidence but also improved her participation, as noted by her French teacher during our recent parent-teacher conference. Laura ensures that every student, no matter the class size, has a chance to speak a significant amount during her lessons, and her caring approach to diverse learning abilities is impressive.
Both my sons, 17 and 16, have been taking French lessons with Laura, and she is an exceptional teacher. She's patient, fun, interesting, personable, understanding, and on top of it. We are hoping she offers more classes that we can sign up for :)
My daughter has loved taking French from Laura for the last year and a half. And I can honestly say that if I had a teacher like Laura when I was in my high school French classes, I would still be speaking French. She has a great way of communicating with the kids and helping them feel comfortable learning and loving a new language.
Outstanding teacher! Great with kids and very organized lessons!
Laura is always supportive of the students. I saw my student progress in French and my student felt more confident in French language study. She attempts to make it a mostly immersive experience, but never leaves students confused about what she is saying.
