👋 Salut! I’m Edwin, your soon-to-be favorite French tutor (or at least in your top three, I’ll take it).
🇸🇦 Living in Saudi Arabia and learning Arabic, after 5 years in Sydney, where I discovered that "Yeah, nah" and "Nah, yeah" actually mean two completely different things (and yes, I still get them mixed up).
🤓 I focus on practical, real-life French - no outdated textbook phrases. Whether you want to refine your grammar, expand your vocabulary, or feel more at ease in conversations, I tailor each lesson to your goals.
⚠️ Not for total beginners, but if you already know some French and want to level up, let’s make it happen! 🚀
Ich als Lehrkraft
🧦 Kick off your shoes and relax - I know what it’s like to learn a new language from scratch!
🧘🏻 I’m patient, and totally fine with you making 78 mistakes per sentence (I’ll only start worrying if we hit 79).
😎 I adapt to your needs to help you develop fluency, expand your vocabulary, and fine-tune your pronunciation.
🎯 Your goals, your pace—I’ll create a learning plan tailored just for you. Let’s make French fun! 🚀
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
🎯 Before we start, I like to understand your goals—whether it’s improving fluency, fixing tricky grammar mistakes, or finally figuring out why half of French letters exist just for decoration. This helps me create targeted exercises, real-life scenarios, and lessons that actually make sense for you.
☕ No stress if you don’t have a set goal! We can simply chat about topics you love, explore fun themes, and let the conversation flow—because the best way to learn is by enjoying it.
📚 After class, I’ll send you a recap with the vocabulary we used and some optional exercises. You can do them… or not—I’m a cool teacher, not a school principal 👀.
My first session with Edvin was EXACTLY what I need - talking very comfortably in French to a real Parisian haha. I have never had so much while learning on Italki. It was a very comfortable session that I feel like I am talking to a friend. There was so much friendliness in the air that the 1 jours session went by like minutes haha. Will definitely no doubt having sessions again with Edvin ! Merci mec à la prochaine ! :)

Before my first class with Edwin speaking in French terrified me. I could only speak in short, simple sentences. After our first lesson I immediately felt more comfortable. Edwin let me know that he was there to help me, not to judge me. He also lets you direct the lesson to whatever you want to talk about. If you have a question he'll answer, if you want to talk about your day he'll not only listen, but he'll remember details too! It's obvious that Edwin truly cares about you and he believes if you are having fun the learning will come naturally.

It's been about 5 months for me to take lessons from Edvin. I was at the level of B1 when I started with him. I have done a lot of lessons mainly focusing on the conversation. He's always fun and yet very attentive to what I need during the lessons. Quick to find and provide the source of the information in depth and creative to offer the subjects to discuss together. I passed the B2 exam in June and the oral production was where I got the highest score out of all 4 different parts, even though that was where I usually felt most nervous. If you are looking to improve your French and advance to the next level while having fun, try it out with Edvin and see it for yourself. Learning French can be fun with him and that's the way to start having confidence in your French, I believe =)

I am preparing for C2 exam and I found the conversational lessons with Eric very helpful. He would provide a lot of useful feedbacks regarding pronunciation, expressions, and grammar while encouraging you to speak out. He is also flexible enough to adapt the class to my needs and interests so that I get the most out of each session. Overall I think he is an excellent French prof.

Edvin is super patient and helpful, I have gained a lot of confidence and learnt so much since I started lessons with him.
The thing I love most about Edvin's style is that I have a lot of fun and time seems to fly by. I am always laughing and feel very relaxed, it's a safe environment to make mistakes and improve my French.
