Introducing Linguistic Counseling in the Undergraduate French Language studies in the Nigerian Universities

This study is geared towards the search for a more productive approach to facilitate the teaching and learning of French in Nigerian Universities through the use of Linguistic Counseling. Our worries are the down trends of French learning in our Universities where students of French seem not interested any longer in learning the language as shown in the research results and observations presented in this study. The purpose is to create an awareness of the possible introduction of Linguistic Counseling in the Departments of French. As contribution to knowledge, areas and methods of the counseling exercise were carefully presented. Consequently, there will be tremendous improvement in the output of graduating students of French provided the methods suggested herein are adhered to by the teachers of French in our Universities.
