    Let’s have an English Conversation Lesson together
    Let’s have an English conversation together! I know that each student is unique so I make sure to cater my lesson plans according to my student's pace, goals, and needs. In my classes, I will always encourage you to fully express your thoughts to utilize everything that you've learned. Although I mainly specialize in free conversations, I can also teach you grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. Furthermore, we can go through a textbook you're studying, read and discuss news/short stories, describe pictures, or do roleplays to practice for certain situations. In other words, I am pretty flexible in my teaching methods haha. If you have any preferences, you are always free to let me know. 

I can't wait to meet you in class soon. I really look forward to being a part of your learning experience!

    Succeed in the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Private preparation sessions | [IN LINE]
    My name is Fawzi, and I am a French language teacher. Since 2012, I have been giving private lessons online. My objective is to support learners towards success in the DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) or the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), as well as the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have had the pleasure of helping many students of different nationalities through my online courses. For me, helping enthusiasts practice the French language is an enriching experience, because I understand the importance of success in the lives of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English and a little Turkish. During my classes, I explain concepts in French, Arabic or Spanish, depending on your preference. At the end of each session, I offer exercises to do as homework, in order to identify your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some essential points to know about the DELF and DALF: - The DELF (Diploma in French Language Studies) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two high-quality official diplomas. They are aligned with the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and cover the following six levels, from the most basic to the most advanced: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences. - The DELF B2 and, increasingly, the DALF C1, provide access to French, European or French-speaking universities, as well as certain Grandes Ecoles. If you plan to take DELF or DALF exams, or if you want to improve your level, do not hesitate to book your sessions with me to start preparation. I am available !
