Bonjour! Ị dịkwa mma? I’m Oduko—your guide to French fluency and Igbo cultural connection! As a certified DELF/DALF examiner (CLA Besançon, France) and native Igbo speaker, I blend 10+ years of expertise with a love for music, history, and storytelling. Whether you’re acing exams, reconnecting with Igbo roots, or learning as a family, my lessons are vibrant journeys—think exam hacks, folktales, and Afro-French fusion playlists! Let’s make every word count. À bientôt!Me as a Teacher
Teaching and learning is a way of life that demands patience, perseverance, care, humility, honesty, open-mindedness and understanding. Teaching a language even demands more and it's not something one just starts doing spontaneously, it's something that has to be there somehow, it has to be nurtured. This is what I have carried and nurtured in me for a long time and it is that which defines me. My lessons & teaching style
I like to transform my lessons into an immersion programme, so from the very first minute I teach using the target language with of course effective demonstration. I use the modern foreign language curriculum as a guide. I also use images, questioning technique and authentic materials (video clips,songs, newspapers etc). Usually on the eve of the session I would send a brief explanation (pragmatic and linguistics objectives, lesson plan and keywords) of the lesson to the learner but in the learner’s language. To help the learner grow in confidence I do role plays and also let the learner teach in a flipped-class setting. Every lesson has both a final task and a plenary.My teaching material

Teacher was punctual and very supportive! Even though I wasn’t confident in speaking Igbo He Made me feel comfortable with speaking and helpful in correcting me. This was just my trial lesson but I’m excited to learn more.
