About Me
Effective communicator!Passionate about culture and people, loves animals and refuses to visit zoos.
Loves music, dancing and the outdoors, fresh air and walking on the coast.
I design lesson content with a focus on student’s level, desired achievement and we start with what the student is confident about and build an abundance material and resources around it.
I include “drill phrases and grammar”then practices, role plays, games, free chat, quizzes and consolidation in a lesson.
As a result a lesson is highly functional and resourceful, a handout with bullet points is given a day or two prior the lesson so the student can work around it practice and get an idea of what we will do in lessons. After lessons a note is also produced by me and given to the student, I encourage good effort and points, and suggest a focused work on things that need working on, boosting confidence.

I am Senegalese, Professor, Linguist and Specialist in the Wolof language. Learn and speak Wolof easily with me.My methodology is to base myself on the courses in a structural and clear way, accessible to my learners to give them quality teaching and a total understanding of the courses in a cordial and satisfying atmosphere.
My method is very simple, I start by teaching you the most common and most used words and expressions. Then slowly the formation of sentences, conjugation, grammar but also how to pronounce each word well and know their positions in the sentence.
Thanks to my very simple and effective teaching methodology, the student can form sentences in Wolof very easily from our first lesson.
Wolof is the most spoken language in Senegal, Gambia where it has been enriched with contributions from other dialects, Arabic and French, which remains the official language. It is experiencing cultural expansion in the country and is also present in Gambia and Mauritania.
So to facilitate your integration into Senegalese society; it is essential to use this language because it is the vernacular language although there are several beautiful local Senegalese languages but Wolof remains the most used language. This is why I offer myself to teach the beauty of this language which is my specialty and my mother tongue, I also teach Senegalese and Gambian culture and civilization.
Learning Wolof offers anyone who wishes to know Senegal, in a professional, cultural or tourist context, the opportunity to establish privileged contact with its population.
I would also like to inform my learners that apart from online courses, I organize language visits and tours in Senegal; for those who wish to travel to practice and discover Senegal with special packages.
DON'T HESITATE TO BOOK A COURSE DIRECTLY SO THAT I CAN EXPLAIN AND INTRODUCE YOU TO THE WOLOF LANGUAGE.

(Online) Mathematics Tutoring for High School StudentsHigh School Math can be confusing for students. Often there is not enough time in school to repeat the content and practice enough, for the students to gain confidence and a routine in solving mathematical problems. With my help and guidance, any confusion will be cleared and we will practice problem solving until you are confident and understand the material.
The lessons will be tailored to your needs and their structure depends highly on you: usually it is a mixture of repeating the content, solving exercises together, summarising important concepts and talking about exercises you tried yourself at home. The topics, content, pace and methods of learning will be adjusted to your needs, ensuring that you get the most out of my lessons. Besides the lessons, you will get "homework" to work on to strengthen your skills and independent working.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
-Linear Algebra
-Calculus
-Trigonometry
-Geometry
-Set Theory
-Analysis
If you have another topic in mind that you really need help with, just send me a message!
Whether you need someone that explains the concepts to you or just someone to practice exercises with - I am sure I can help you. You have an exam soon and want to review the main topics? No problem! You have a very specific problem, question or topic that you need help with? I'm here to answer any questions! You need help with preparing for your A-levels/High School diploma? Don't fret, I will guide and prepare you!
The most important part of my lessons is, however, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment - I have no issue with explaining the same concept over and over again until I am convinced that you have understood it. It is important to me that you feel comfortable in asking any questions - I want to show you, that Math is more than a subject and that it can be fun!

First, they will learn and think about how and why saving money:
- short-term and long-term goals they can save for (e.g. a toy, a trip, college education).
- how to create a budget and track their spending.
- Compound interest and the impact of starting to save early.
How to spend money wisely:
- difference between needs and wants.
- how to compare prices and make informed purchasing decisions.
- learn what is impulse buying and method to take the time to think before spending.
How to managing money:
- Keeping track of spending and creating a budget
- Different types of bank accounts, type of money and currencies
- learn what are credits, how they work and how it can impact their finances in the future.
This class is made for kids, so it'll include use games, puzzles, and interactive activities to help them understand the concepts while having fun.

Spanish as a second language - Spanish for foreigners (ELE)Currently, knowledge of different languages is very important, not only in the work or professional field, but on a personal level as well. We live in an intercultural world in which relationships with people from different cultures and who speak different languages is inevitable. For this reason, I offer Spanish classes for both teenagers and adults with levels from A1 to C1.
My classes are organized according to the needs and objectives of the students, in fact, the students I currently have can corroborate this. I like that people intervene and, of course, that we have a fun and enjoyable time.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to write to me. I'll wait for you!

Spanish online lessons with native spanish teacher for adults and teenagersI am a native Spanish speaker and a general language enthusiast. In addition to Spanish, I speak German and English. I am 100% confident that I will successfully teach you Spanish (while having fun and relaxing)!
I've been teaching spanish for 15 years. I am 41 years old, graduated with honors from the University of Salamanca. My main goal in teaching is to make students feel relaxed and comfortable while studying.
Do you already know Spanish? No problem! Rather than building the basics, we can design courses to suit your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can give presentations on topics that interest you or that I present to you, we can discuss current events, engage in debates, you can write summaries of newspaper articles, or we can delve into advanced grammar. Whatever you enjoy and need, we can do it together.
All my courses combine speaking, listening and grammar practice in interaction with me. Unless you are a very advanced student, we work with learning materials created by some of the best language learning publishers in Germany. These materials serve as a common thread for our course, introducing new words, grammar and exercises at a good pace and in an interesting way, keeping you engaged and motivated. I also show you German food, music and places. In addition, I will introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level.
Another important factor for me is the personal connection. We usually start our lessons with how the weekend or previous weekdays were like.
Contact me now to arrange a first lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn more about you, your needs and desires and thus design the optimal course for you.
