Bonjour! 

I’ve been a professional French teacher since 2007. I taught French in various language schools, for big companies and at university. Since 2020, I’ve been teaching exclusively online. These experiences have allowed me to be in contact with different types of students, from children to adults, from beginner to proficiency, for leisure or business purposes or to prepare for the official French certifications (I’m also a DELF examiner). Therefore, I’m used to adapt to the needs and learning objectives of my students. This means that I can choose the right teaching material so that we can practice and progress according to your own goals and interests. 

Languatalk is perfect to learn a language in a very efficient, funny and motivating way. My teaching method is based on oral communication and pronunciation, which doesn’t mean that you won’t learn and practice grammar and structures which are necessary to express oneself properly. Through the material provided such as books, newspapers, videos, you will also be improving your reading and listening skills. We can also work your writing if you need or want to.

See you!

I help, motivate and encourage anyone to have a better understanding, extend knowledge and improve confidence.

I've taught in France, Denmark, India, Russia, Hong Kong and Berlin since 2009. I have a Didactic of Languages diploma from La Sorbonne University. I teach anyone from 4 years-old.

Lessons are tailored to each student using different books, music or movies to dispense knowledge of the French language and its culture. I look forward to meeting you!
 

Hello, how are you? My name is Sylvain, I'm 30 and from Belgium. I currently live in São Paulo, Brazil with my wife. I have a degree in management, but I've been working as a French teacher since I arrived in Brazil. 
I did a university exchange in Chile, which helped me learn Spanish.  I'm a curious person and I'm interested in almost every topic, but I particularly like talking about the economy, politics, technology and cultural differences between countries.After arriving in Brazil, an opportunity came up for me to work as a French teacher in a school for adults, where I worked for the first two years. After that, I decided to become self-employed and concentrate on one-to-one, in-company and online teaching. Today, I have students of all levels with different objectives (work, travel, pleasure, French language maintenance, diplomacy etc.) and I love it when they are satisfied and see themselves progressing. On top of that, I find it very interesting to be able to talk to people with different profiles, backgrounds and histories.


We will define the material to be used according to your specific needs. We'll work with a variety of materials such as:
-French language methods (Défi, Tout va bien, Alter Ego, etc.)

-Grammar/vocabulary books covering general themes or more specific to your objectives 

-Recent articles, videos and audios on current topics

-Speaking or conversational exercices

-Test preparation

In addition, I try to stimulate the student to talk about different themes that are important to him/her.


 

Hello Everyone, 

Languages are a passion of mine, I am currently working on language 5 and 6. Because I've been learning other languages  I am very familiar with the difficulties my students can have and which methods are efficient. 

My first objective is for my student to develop the skills to speak and understand French so that they can be independant consulting French content at home. My classes are very relaxed and I try to have a good time while I teach. My classes are tailored to each student's level. 

• For beginners: we work on the elements of the sentence, conjugating verbs, prononciation exercises, we read basic text and we start writing and speaking in French. we also introduce the idea of daily practice.
• For intermediates we work on more advanced grammatical concepts and conjugating with more tenses, we work with audio and written format (about 50/50 technique and practice)
• For advanced students we usually do more conversation based exercises, prior to the class I'll send a podcast, documentary, youtube video, movie extracts and more and the student have to express their thoughts, their critic or commentary on the topic, on my hand I will ask questions to keep the conversation going. We can also do interview prep, review of essays written in French etc.

 I also do give a little bit of homework.

Hi, I'm Lucie and I would be glad to help you learn French! 

I've been teaching French for some years now and I'm myself passionate about languages. As a matter of fact I speak six languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, a little bit of Dutch and Italian). I know how hard and challenging it can be to learn a new language, and I strongly believe that practice is key to improve and learn a new language. So, be ready to speak with me! Of course, we will go through grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, and I'll structure my lessons according to your needs (without forgetting the practice).  I also believe that learning should be fun because when you're having fun, things get easier and you will feel more confident. 

So, ready to learn? 

About Me

I hold degrees in French Literature, Philosophy, and History from Université Paris 10, along with a Master of Science in Global Change Management from HNE Eberswalde.

Before settling in São Paulo, Brazil, I lived and worked in Berlin for five years, where I began teaching languages through private tutoring and literacy classes for young refugees. In 2017, I completed a French language teaching certification and went on to teach at the Technical University of Berlin for three semesters.

Today, I work with a range of language schools in São Paulo, including IFESP, Versátil Idiomas, and the Alliance Française. I have experience teaching students of all ages and levels, and I regularly design personalized learning materials to meet their goals.

Alongside teaching, I work as a translator, with professional experience translating from English, German, and Portuguese into French.

My Methodology

I offer a highly adaptive, student-centered approach — rooted in curiosity, creativity, and care.

Whether your goal is to pass an exam, grow professionally, travel, or simply reconnect with the joy of language, I build a personalized learning journey tailored to your rhythm, interests, and way of thinking.

Beyond traditional grammar and vocabulary, I incorporate contemporary tools and immersive media — sometimes drawing on memes, music, or multilingual storytelling — to help you engage with the language in a dynamic and meaningful way.

Over the past four years, I’ve curated a rich and evolving digital library of resources, which allows me to create flexible, intuitive learning paths for each student — all available to you with no extra cost.

Hi all! My name is Miriam, I speak four languages and I have been teaching French online for 3 years. My mother tongue is Arabic and I started learning French since I was 3 years old. I started learning English in elementary school and had Spanish classes for two years at university. I also speak Italian as I currently live in Italy.

I have acquired some experience in academic support and language teaching. I would be very happy to discuss with you what interests you to help you progress in your learning. I am also available to adapt to your preferences in terms of materials and learning tools. Hope to see you soon!

I am a certified examiner for DELF A1-A2-B1.I have been teaching french for 14 years.Be it general or business french, my students quickly become comfortable and confident with the language, I have also trained many multinational companies all over the world .

I use practical activities based on Communicative Language Teaching (CLT),  methodology, throughout the course, I encourage my students to use their own daily situations in class and express them in french like in real life in role plays. In the communicative approach you will be able to start talking very quickly this is when we are going to work on theory which is grammar, I have many resources to make grammar easy , we will practice with examples and exercises which helps in learning new vocabulary and also learn how to use the correct grammar in a sentence.Take a trial with me so we can get to know each better and create a course fit for your needs!

Bonjour! 

Ready to unlock French with a visual method that gets you speaking before you even open a textbook?

I’m Romain, creator of a Revolutionary Visual Method that uses symbols to represent words, tenses, and grammar, with a clear and obvious symbol, helping your brain to memorize and make complex sentences.

This tool is great for people who need to visualize what they’re learning.

Why a visual method?

• Faster recall – Your brain stores images more easily than abstract rules.
• Immediate speaking – Place the symbols side by side and you’re forming real sentences in the very first class guaranteed.
• Engaging – Illustrations make every lesson fun and remarkably effective.
• Natural acquisition – Children learn languages visually, why should adults do it any other way?

Why study with me?

• Proven results – I’ve met countless students who could read and write after years of classes yet still couldn’t speak, my method fixes that.
• 10 years of global experience – I’ve taught in NYC, Shanghai, and Rio.
• Multilingual support – I speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Mandarin, so I can clarify tricky points in your native language when needed.
• I have a lawyer degree but I followed my passion for languages and teaching French is my main activity.

For beginners & intermediate learners, the program covers

• Speaking in French from day one
• Rock-solid pronunciation and confidence
• Grammar made painless through visuals

For advanced learners, the program focuses on

• Slang, everyday expressions, their origins, and tricky grammar/tenses
• Expanding vocabulary with terms from science, tech, finance, literature, so you can discuss them with confidence
• Analyzing great songs.
• Perfecting your accent while deepening your understanding of French history, culture, and society

I just need to know your wishes, and I will prepare every time a special lesson for you, in accordance with your interests.

I’ll help building your confidence, did you know what a foreign accent is? It’s a sign of bravery!

À bientôt,
 

Hello and welcome to my page!

My name is Célia, a native French teacher living abroad. I graduated with a master’s degree in French as a Foreign Language [teaching French to foreigners] in 2020 at the University of Paul-Valéry in Montpellier, and I became a certified DELF (A1–B2) corrector in 2022. I grew up in a small village near Montpellier, and I have lived in Northern Ireland, Germany, and Asia.

During my master’s degree, I learned how to create didactic units (lessons), design exams, and work with the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages). I have been teaching French both online and on-site—in international schools and at the Alliance Française : from A1 to C2 levels, to learners of all ages: children, teenagers, and adults. Whether you’re preparing for an exam, looking to build your skills, or just want to practice speaking, I’ll be happy to help!

In our first class, I’ll ask you why you want to learn French, what your goals and interests are, what your current level is, and if you want to focus on any particular aspect of the language. This first conversation during our trial lesson helps me get a better idea of your level so I can prepare a plan tailored to your needs. The materials I use are varied: listening exercises from media sources, text comprehension (books, articles, excerpts), grammar practice, and more. All resources are adapted to your level and objectives. Most materials are provided, and I also share a lesson summary and homework after each session （-＾▽＾-).

My teaching method is mainly based on communicative and action-oriented approaches. I aim to involve learners actively in their learning process and help them speak as much French as possible, in a supportive and relaxed atmosphere. I know learning a new language isn’t always easy—mistakes are part of the process! I’m here to guide you, support you, and help you gain confidence step by step.

I’m passionate about languages and culture, and I love exchanging with people from all over the world. I’m sure we’ll find plenty of interesting topics to talk about while building your French skills!

À bientôt!
