The CEO
Fatou Diaby
Fatou Diaby is a Spanish Certified English and French Philologist with roots from Senegal. Her teaching experiences initiated in private schools in Barcelona and later on, she started to give private lessons online to some of her Afrodescendant and Muslim friends who were struggling to master English and French, even if they’d been studying it for a long period of time at high school, private schools or even university.
When she graduated from the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB), she decided that she wanted to become a teacher and to create her own way of teaching that will enable her students to preserve their roots and their mother tongues would matter. So, she studied a master’s degree online entitled Technology-Mediated Language Teaching and Learning at the Open University of Catalonia (UOC) for a year. Eventually, she started to develop his own way of teaching English and French including the roots of her students and it was a success.
Additionally, she moved from Spain to Belgium to continue gaining experience. Her passion for languages and her willingness to protect her roots and Jahanke, her mother tongue, will definitely be an amazing game changer on the language teaching world.
