Personal Description:
I am keen to teach French to anyone who feels the need to learn the language. I am enthusiastic, friendly, and ready to support you on your journey to success.
My Motto:
"I'll help you succeed—even if others have given up on you, or if you simply need some extra support."
"Whether you're brushing up on your French or starting from scratch, I’ll help you build confidence in the language."
With me, you will succeed!
Teaching Experience:
I am bilingual and fluent in French. I taught French abroad for 10 years. Although I am a trained primary teacher, my strong command of French allows me to teach not only young children but also teenagers and adults. I have excellent pronunciation, which I believe is a key asset for any French teacher. I also teach primary subjects.
Teaching Approach:
I use a variety of techniques to meet the different needs of my students. I focus primarily on listening, responding, and speaking skills—through conversation, audio materials, and practical activities. This helps students develop a working knowledge of the language for effective oral communication.
I keep lessons engaging by asking questions, giving praise, and encouraging the use of French as much as possible. Lessons are carefully graded so that students feel confident and capable of succeeding.
I also focus on reading and writing skills, teaching pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary in a clear, accessible way. I love sharing helpful tips and tricks that make learning French easier and more enjoyable!
