I've been teaching French online since 2016, previously having worked developing the skills of young people, adults and foreigners of all levels.
In my opinion, a teacher’s enthusiasm, patience, humour and understanding of their students’ needs are key to help a student learn efficiently, and for the student to enjoy lessons which is important for learning,
I adapt my teaching to your needs which will naturally vary according to your personnel situation, from beginner to advanced level, as a teenager at school or student, or as a mature learner. Choosing topics which interest you is very important.
Your needs may vary such as:
- learning the French language, discovering French culture, history or current affairs.
- seeking conversational French to keep up your level. If you have an intermediate level or above, we can speak about any topic that interests you.
- wanting to improve or refresh your French before visiting France or working in a French speaking country. De
- wishing to improve your French for professional use.
- looking to pass French proficiency exams such as DELF (A2 to B2) and DALF (C1 to C2).
Teaching method:
I use a variety of tools and aids such as books for grammar and vocabulary, specific books for exams such as DELF, press articles, podcasts and literature.
We start with a small test to establish your level and then progress to discussion, reading and writing exercices. I can send you material according to your needs.
About me:
My interests include travel especially in Europe. I spend my time between Provence and Northern Ireland ; nature, animals, and the environment. I loved horse riding ; sustainability ; history, architecture and philosophy ; geopolitics ; food and especially French and Asian food.
