Obafemi Awolowo University - OAU Speciality : Modern Languages
programme: French

Obafemi Awolowo University Ile Ife is one of the few universities in Nigeria that offers quality education and has international recognition. Although the students go through the vigorous learning process, it always produces excellent students in the long run.

I studied French as a Foreign Language. It was a course that exposed me to a culture, beliefs, civilization and people different from ours in Africa. I love studying French as it is a known fact that language is life and the French will like and respect you more once you’re able to communicate in their language. However, I do not like the fact that some lecturers were unnecessarily mean and made learning difficult and uninteresting.
The university as a whole is a true citadel of learning as it does not only make you a master of your subject but also brings culture and norms closer to you and helps you become an intelligent, smart, hardworking and civilized human being.
I would like to see students being rewarded according to how hard they have worked and the school to reduce the rate of internal riots and strikes so that the academic calendar will not be disrupted.
It is a school that helps to engage students both socially and academically. So students have fun while learning and it is worth recommending to others. It is also recognized internationally as it has produced students that have made positive impacts all over the world. This is why I know that it has given me a great foundation that has helped me to be a great teacher and an administrator today.
