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.

I am taking lessons with Charlélie to improve my ability to have real conversations in French. Charlélie always finds very interesting subjects to discuss and he keeps me speaking with good questions. He is patient and he is flexible in adjusting the lessons according to my ability and my interests. Highly recommended!

Excellent! He asks a lot of questions to really get you talking in French constantly. He has materials that you go through together, there is then homework on a variety of topics that is quite interesting. He has helpful insights about the nuances of the language to really get you to grow. Planning on more sessions!
