Fortunate Tabi Eta (Language, Arts and Mass Communication Teacher)

Brief Bio

Fortunate Tabi Eta did his Primary Education around the Southwest Region of Cameroon where in 1996 he obtained his first ever certificate (F.S.L.C) As if this certificate only gingered his desire to acquire more certificates, he pursued his secondary educational career in this same region and the Littoral where he obtained his Ordinary and Advance level Certificates in 2002 and 2004 respectively.

Just like every ambitious young scholar will do, the young High School graduate got enrolled in the Prestigious University of Buea (the lone English University in Cameroon at that time) where he ventured through all the techniques that go with English Language, Literature and French as a Minor.

As smart as he was, he quickly rounded up three years later, that is, in 2007 with a B.A. Hons in ENGLISH LANGUAGE. While in the University he had been doing Freelance writing with Eden Newspaper and presenting radio shows with local radios around, this explains why immediately he graduated he was retained by CAURIS FM 99.0; a Douala based radio station as NEWSCASTER and ANCHOR MAN for 3years. This job was run alongside his Newspaper writing job with Eden Newspaper and a part-time Tv Show with Spectrum Television(STV) DOUALA.

When his father died in November 2009, he decided to respect his memory by doing what he had always wanted him to do, that is, Teaching and Movie Making. In 2010, this decision shoved him into a full time SCRIPT-WRITING, Acting and Teaching career; a career that saw him through movies like ‘‘HARD TO FORGIVE’’, ‘‘SCARED’’, ‘‘HABIBA’’ etc. (some of these movies are available on YouTube); this same year saw the publication of his Play entitled ‘‘HABIBA’’ and his Anthology of poems entitled ‘‘A BEGINNERS FIRST POETIC ANTHOLOGY’’.

His Movie-Maker/Actor/Music career did not impede him from sustaining a stainless result-accompanied teaching career through the best schools in Douala and Cameroon, such as; M.B.C, G.B.H.S BOBONGO, KING DAVID INERNATIONAL SCHOOL DOUALA, THE AMERICAN SCHOOL DOUALA (A.S.D), AMITY DOUALA, ISTIKAMET INTERNATIONAL, TURKISH MAARIF INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL etc. He is an excellent singer and a seasoned instrumentalist. In fact, his students claim there is no musical instrument Fortunate will not play even though he humbly and repeatedly insists that he is just trying his hands on the piano, acoustic guitar, bass guitar and drums.

As a matter of fact, his childhood friends and his Mum call him FORTUNATE THE TALENT. After 13 good years of experience in moulding and developing skills and talents in learners, FORTUNATE TABI is privileged to be amongst those who will carry this wonderful vision projected by MFAH MFAH ACADEMY to its bloom. He started off in September 2022 and according to him, MFAH MFAH ACADEMY is the real Oasis for Skills and Talent Development.
