Bonjour everyone ! 

My name is Oana Maria and I am a professional language teacher and a Linguist graduated at the University of Bordeaux , France. I am currently living in North Norway. I came here to take a second master on Sami language and culture, and recently I have been working in an alternative school with kids. 

I am an eternal language learner and a nomad at heart. I love getting to know new places, living in different countries and cultures and never stop learning. I consider learning a language as buying a new pair of shoes that will lead you to a new culture, experience and life style. And definitely, open up your horizons. 

I am currently developing my own methodology to teach languages through theater and arts, therefore my lessons are full of games, dialogues and dramaturgical exercices to make you feel comfortable using the language but also creative and dynamic and ready to use the language in everyday situation. 

I am looking forward to meeting you and walk together the fun, exciting and sometimes challenging path of learning a new language. I am here to guide you ! Let's go ! 

Bonjour! 

With a Master's in French as a Foreign Language in progress and a Bachelor's degree in Applied Modern Languages, I am deeply passionate about language learning and teaching my native tongue—French!

For the past few years, I have been teaching French both online and in person to learners of all ages. I am well-versed in the DELF A1-B2 exams and also offer lessons focused on pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar for casual learners. I tailor my lessons to each student's level and goals, working with beginners up to B2 intermediate learners. My priority is to help you gain confidence and make tangible progress in French.

For the trial lesson

• I will first share a Google Docs document with you. This will allow you to access lesson plans in advance and add your own notes throughout our sessions.
• In the first few minutes, I’ll ask you to introduce yourself and share your expectations for our lessons.
• We will start with some simple exercises to assess your comfort level with grammar, reading, listening, and speaking.

If your main focus is speaking, we will engage in various speaking exercises to help you gain confidence in the language. If you're preparing for the DELF A1-B2 exams or any school/university assessments, we will target the areas you feel need the most improvement. And if you're here to learn French in a fun and relaxed way, we can explore any themes or topics that interest you.

I hope to see you very soon! 😊

Bonjour! 

 I come from Nancy in the north-east of France. I lived one year in Spain and  I am living now in Dublin. 

 I studied Performing Art and film studies in France, Spain and in Ireland. I am passionate about travelling, discovering new cultures and art. I recently completed a diploma to teach French to foreigners (DAEFLE- Alliance Française de Paris). I am also an examiner and corrector for the DELF-DALF exam.

I started teaching French part-time 6 years ago when I moved to Dublin. I used to help Irish teenagers to prepare their French exams (Leaving Cert - Junior Cert) and students at the University (preparing oral exams, proof-reading essays).  I have been teaching French online since April 2020 and in person to adults and kids in some languages school since February 2021. 

I teach French to all levels (beginners to advanced) and all ages (kids, teenagers, adults). I can help you to improve your French skills (grammar, vocabulary, French culture, oral fluency) , to prepare your essays, oral presentation, job interview, Delf-Dalf exams  … With  children I usually use a power point to learn basics vocabulary and sentences, and make French games with them. 

I am flexible to your needs, level and way of learning. I use videos and articles based on your interests and encourage practising conversation. I also often relate the lessons to French culture as film, music, news , literature ... I can provide grammar lessons and exercises.

À bientôt !

Bonjour a tous!!

Are you planning to move to a French-speaking country? Do you want to improve your language skills? Do you wish to embrace a new culture? or just looking for a new hobby? I am here to help you no matter what you need, from the comfort of your own home, anywhere in the world!

My name is Alizee, I am from Bretagne, in the north west of France, the land of butter and cider!

I have been a language teacher since 2014. I graduated from the University of Oregon in the US with a Master of arts (French culture and Literature) and then I got a bachelor of Teaching French as a 2nd language from the University of Nantes, France. I started teaching at the University of Oregon as a GTF and it helped me find my path, teaching became a part of my identity and I really found myself thanks to this experience. Afterwards, I started to travel around south east Asia and moved to Vietnam and started teaching English to Vietnamese and indonesian students. I started teaching French online when I moved to the Philippines in 2019, and have continued since in several countries such as Canada, France, Panama...

I provide personalized online classes, based on your level (from A1 to C2), your goals and your interests. Each class will include grammatical introductions/reminders, listening comprehension but most of all speaking practice. If you are planning to take the DELF exam, I can also help! Homework will be provided outside of class to not waste time during the lesson. From daily life situations, to current events and news, we will have a wide range of different topics.

A bientot!

Alizee

Do you need help to learn or get your French to a higher level? 

Are you learning French and you need to practice your speaking skills? Would you like to develop or maintain your skills? Are you seeking support in your learning?

My name is Magali. As a native French with a background in coaching and vocational training in communication, I’ve been a full time and private French tutor since 2015. I have been helping adults and kids from basic to advanced to enhance their level and confidence. Here are the lessons I offer:

• lessons based on text books: learning in the context of real life with dialogues of everyday life (pronunciation, reading, role-plays, vocabulary, conversations) and grammar essentials
• conversation: practicing oral skills on various topics or for a specific purpose
• aloud reading: improving your french accent and knowledge through texts/articles, short novels or short stories for children
• presentation: enhancing your communication skills (written and/or oral presentations, exams)
• coaching for non-native French tutors/instructors : building lessons, explaining certain grammar points/culture, finding ressources, various questions and tips

Patient and creative, I will fit your needs and provide you with a fun and adequate material and environment.

Why am I dedicated to pass on knowledge? Because the more I teach, the more I learn and the better I get, the more I can help! I'm a lifelong learner and teaching has always been part of my life mission. 

I’ve lived in Canada (from West to East) for 10 years and I am currently living in Brussels, Belgium. In both countries, I can be immersed in a multicultural environment, which makes me happy and at home. Besides, I love to write, create clay sculptures, paint in watercolour and get into nature as much as I can. 

I’m looking forward to meeting you!

Hello my name is teacher Sussu, and I am so happy to meet you.

I am an experienced teacher with more than 17 years of experience.

I have a Master's degree in TESOL (Teaching English as a Second Language) and FLE (French as a Second Language), plus I am Montessori certified.

I believe that learning a new language should be fun and exciting.

Yes, it is not always easy, but it is more like a puzzle you build piece by piece.

I always start where you are and offer new ways to use and expand what you already know.

My priority in class is to make sure my students speak and relax.

The more relaxed, the more confident you will be. The more daring, the more you will see that it is okay to make mistakes and try again.

I will always challenge you to reach higher, to add one step and then another step in your language journey. And then, you will have fun doing so.

Plus, I match my classes to your interests and goals.

So what do you think?

Are you ready to book a trial with me?

I promise to always be patient and kind.

I hope to see you soon.

Until then...

Let's set your goal and start a work plan! There are many reasons to learn French, such as:

• Passing exams such as the DELF, TEF or DFP.
• Travelling or living in a French-speaking country
• Work requirements and career growth

I can help with all of the above, and more.

It is always a pleasure to be able to have a fluent conversation (or a heated debate) with students who sometimes started as total beginners and to see them acing their exams.

As for the method, I use trusted manuals and activity books because I believe in structure, but also material that suits your interests and tastes - from literature to popular songs, news to scientific articles, series, and movies (subtitled or not), online resources and grammar exercises. Resources are shared on a Slack group where lessons are summarized, and tasks listed. I can also tailor-make lessons for a specific objective like a job interview or a power point presentation.

Teaching French has been my main activity for several years both privately and at the Alliance Française. I am outgoing and chatty, but homework is not optional (at least if you want to improve fast!).

Do not hesitate to book a trial session.

See you soon!
