About Me
italki teacher since Sep 6, 2018InterestsPets & AnimalsSports & FitnessReadingTravelFood
Learning French with me goes beyond textbooks and grammar rules. We explore the language as it’s really spoken.
You’ll practice natural expressions, authentic pronunciation, and discover cultural insights that bring French to life.
Plus, as a multilingual speaker, I understand the challenges of expressing yourself in another language, and I know how confidence grows with the right guidance.
Step by step, French becomes natural, easy, and part of your everyday world, for daily life, travel, or new adventures in French-speaking countries.Me as a Teacher
Most of my learners I work with aim to travel or live in a French-speaking country, so I focus on communication that feels useful, real, and immediately applicable. Every lesson is a shared adventure.
Sometimes we prepare for exams. Other times, we tackle real-life challenges like visas or speaking confidently at work and in everyday situations.
My background as an interpreter trains me to listen carefully, understand meaning beyond words, and help learners express themselves clearly and naturally. My lessons & teaching style
No two learners are the same, that’s why every lesson is personalised just for you. I take the time to understand your goals, your pace, and what helps you grow best.
We create a safe space where you can speak freely, make mistakes, and learn without pressure.
With hands-on, varied activities, French starts to feel natural and useful in everyday life. I also let you speak without interruptions, giving feedback so the conversation flows like a real chat between two people.
With clear explanations and encouragement, learning French becomes effective and genuinely enjoyable.My teaching material

I have been taking French lessons with Khaoula for almost 1 year and I will definitely continue. She is a wonderful teacher. She is well-organized, she provides instructions on what I need to practice for our next lesson, and she always encourages me to continue. She makes corrections that are always to the point but with a very polite and professional way. She is very supportive and patient. I totally recommend Khaoula, as she is not only a great teacher but also a great person. Our conversations and lessons are always very interesting and pleasant. Merci beaucoup Khaoula pour tout!

Khaoula is wonderful! She is intelligent, friendly, and sincere. I've taken quite a few lessons with her, and have always enjoyed our conversation. The materials she uses for class are interesting, and she has a way to pose questions that would help me find things to say. Last but not least, she really lets me do the talk (this may seem basic for a conversation class, but actually not many teachers are able to do so). I look forward to having more lessons with Khaoula!

I’ve been taking French lessons with Khaoula for quite some time now. Her lessons are well structured and challenging but at the same time relaxed and with a varying content. Her encouraging demeanor helps you to feel at ease when trying to express yourself and most importantly for me, she’s patient and affords you the opportunity to try first and then helps to correct/improve afterwards. Whilst I’m not always the most dedicated student, I really enjoy my lessons with Khaoula; she quickly identified my goals, my lessons are planned accordingly and I’ve seen a marked improvement in my French thanks to her lessons and continued advice. Merci, Khaoula!

After having to take a long break from my lessons, I jumped back in with Khaoula and she was just as wonderful as always! We caught up quickly and got straight back to work. Though she always uses videos this she knows will be interesting to her students so it doesn’t feel like work ☺️
