    Wolof classes for beginners and Intermediates. Learn to speak and understand Wolof language.

    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.

    In this course you will learn to speak Wolof in basic everyday settings, grammar and depending on your goals we can dig deeper in the language.

    I have background in linguistics and have experience in teaching languages. I have my Master's degree in African studies and have studied Wolof language for one year intensively as a part of my Bachelor's degree.

    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

    African studies, Master's degree. A one year intensive wolof program as a part of my Bachelor's degree.
    University of Helsinki, one year wolof program Institute National des Langues orientates, Inalco (Paris)

    Experience / Qualifications

    I have experience in teaching languages for kids and adults, mainly Finnish and French. My background lies in Linguistic, especially sociolinguistics. Wolof I have only taught informally, but am enthusiastic to start this journey!

    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.

    Albanian/"Shqip"(Improve Academic/Language skills, Proofreading): Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced
    Albanian as a language is very distinguishable as it has its own branch in the Indo-Europian language tree. It is an ancient language transferred from the Illyrians who lived in the Balkan peninsula. As it is my native language, I have always helped and tutored people who are ethnically Albanian but have been raised outside of Kosovo or Albania and do not have a complete understanding of their mother tongue. Together, we will focus on all fundamentals, including the core bases of Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking. Throughout lessons, we will practice together with additional homework. I am looking forward to meeting you soon. "Jeni të mirëseardhur!".

    Arabic language lessons - Egyptian curriculum - primary and preparatory classes
    This chapter is designed to explain the Arabic language subject for the Egyptian curriculum in a simplified and comprehensive way, suitable for all levels of students in primary and preparatory grades. It combines detailed explanation with modern interactive methods, with a focus on developing students' skills in reading, writing, listening, and speaking. My passion for teaching Arabic comes from my deep belief in its importance as part of our cultural identity, and my desire to help students understand its grammar and enjoy its beauty. Therefore, I make sure to use stimulating teaching strategies, such as interactive quizzes, practical examples, and interesting stories that touch their daily lives, which makes learning more fun and effective. In this lesson, students will learn how to analyze and understand texts accurately, in addition to acquiring parsing and grammar skills in an organized and easy way. I also focus on enhancing their self-confidence through practical exercises and applications that support repetition and effective practice. My goal is to transform learning Arabic from a challenge into an enjoyable experience, by providing a positive learning environment that helps each student reach their full potential. I also provide personalized advice to each student to improve their level according to their individual needs. This lesson is not just an explanation of the course, but rather a journey to discover the beauty of the Arabic language and learn how to use it effectively in daily life.
