Hi everyone,
My name is Farid, I was born in Paris and have worked for many years as an International Sales Consultant and for a couple of years as a French teacher in China.
I lived and worked abroad: China, Czech republic, Germany, Ireland.
I speak French, English, German, Spanish, Czech on a fluent level and I am currently learning Chinese.
I have a big passion in life and that big passion is foreign languages.
In my free time, I enjoy learning languages, reading books, repairing things and doing some sport.
My big interest for languages motivated me to join Italki. I'm currently working on my German and my Chinese and I want to keep learning languages.
Me as a Teacher
I know that French is a difficult language, but isn't it a beautiful challenge to take?
I have been multiple times in the situation of starting a new language and that experience helped me build a solid patience with my students.
To me, the most important aspect of the learning process of the language is to build your confidence in it. I know speaking a foreign language can be daunting at times and I want to help you improve both your skills and your confidence through conversations.
My aim is to make you feel comfortable when speaking to other people. Voilà !
My lessons & teaching style
The structure of my lessons is very flexible and will depend on your level, needs and aims. I will help you to get new vocabulary, understand the grammar and to produce the best pronunciation. We will rely on free online resources, such as texts, articles and videos, as well as any materials you would like to bring with you, homework or papers you would like me to look into.
I am also happy to help you with any school or university work or help you prepare for exams (I have prepared students for exams and I myself passed the C1 exam in German this year) or even interviews (professional interviews or "entretiens pour la naturalisation").

Conversation Practice - (FR/EN/DE/SP) - Intermediate and Advanced
I am always nervous when I speak French, but Farid is very calm. He is also very good at keeping a conversation going, a skill I don’t have in French. So, I want to say thank you!

J'ai trouvé ce professeur très compétent et serviable, il a adapté notre cours à mon niveau et était très expérimenté dans le sujet dont je devais discuter.

Prendre des cours avec Farid, c'est vraiment top. Après le cours, je prends des notes, ça va m'aider pour réviser plus tard.

Farid m'a aidé beaucoup. Il m’a demandé dès le début quel était mon objectif et nous avons immédiatement commencé à travailler.
