About Rihannah
Learning French can be a magical, playful experience—and that’s exactly what I aim to offer. With a Bachelor of Education in French as a Second Language and over 8 years of hands-on experience, I specialize in teaching beginners through fun, expressive methods. If you're nervous about starting French, you’re not alone. I’ve taught students of all ages who felt unsure at first, and I’ve helped them not only learn but love the language. My classes are far from traditional lectures. I believe in learning by doing—and by laughing! We might act out short scenes, turn grammar rules into rhymes, or use storytelling to bring verbs to life. I frequently use games, flashcards, puppets, songs, and dialogue-based exercises to build vocabulary in a way that’s interactive and emotionally memorable. The heart of my teaching lies in creating a supportive and safe space. I’m especially mindful of how vulnerable speaking a new language can feel. That’s why I infuse every lesson with patience and kindness, encouraging students to speak without fear of making mistakes. Mistakes are part of the magic—they’re how we grow. My ultimate goal is for students to develop real-world confidence: to be able to order a coffee in Paris, chat with a new friend, or understand a French movie with joy and ease. I tailor lessons to each student’s pace, interests, and goals, making learning both personal and fun. So if you’re ready to explore French in a space where joy, humor, and creativity lead the way—come learn with me. Let’s discover how fun learning French can be!

I’ve developed a teaching methodology grounded in both effectiveness and enjoyment. My goal is not only to teach you French but to ensure you feel confident using it in real-life situations. I design each session with a balance of structure and spontaneity, combining grammar and conversation in a way that feels natural, engaging, and personalized to your learning goals.
What makes my method stand out is its foundation in joyful learning. I use humor intentionally—not as a distraction, but as a way to create a relaxed and open environment where mistakes are welcomed and learning flows organically. Games, role-plays, storytelling, and even short skits are all part of the process. These activities activate memory, increase retention, and make our time together memorable.
When we approach grammar, I simplify it into visual and intuitive patterns. I believe the best way to learn the ""rules"" of French is by seeing them applied in funny, surprising, or emotionally engaging contexts. Whether it’s through amusing characters or relatable daily scenarios, I help you internalize the logic of the language rather than just memorize facts.
Pronunciation and vocabulary development are another key area. I often incorporate rhythm, song, and spoken repetition exercises that help anchor new words and phrases in your mind. This auditory element supports long-term retention and develops your ear for authentic French sounds.
Speaking is prioritized in every session. You’ll begin expressing yourself in French right from the start—even with limited vocabulary. I guide learners through structured dialogue practice, personal expression, and cultural nuances. I know it’s intimidating at first, but with supportive correction and a step-by-step confidence-building approach, I’ve seen countless students progress from quiet and unsure to fluent and expressive.
I also work well with students adjusting to new French-speaking environments. I offer cultural insights, survival phrases, and emotional support for adapting to daily life abroad. Every lesson is designed to be not only educational but emotionally safe and personally relevant.
French is a language of beauty, precision, and connection. My mission is to help you fall in love with it, see your progress clearly, and make it a lasting part of your world—whether for travel, school, work, or simply for the joy of learning something new.
