About Me

I am a long-time Francophile who studied French Language and Literature for a total of five years at University. In that time, I received two scholarships for further study in Tahiti and New Caledonia, and subsequently went on to study post-grad Communications and Public Relations. After 20 years of working in the corporate world, I have decided to circle back to my first love - la langue française. Although not my native tongue, I have a colloquial French accent, and understand perfectly the challenges of shifting your thinking from English into French. I teach with humour, empathy and understanding which make the journey to fluency more enjoyable - and quicker, as a result.

Education

Massey University, New Zealand - Bachelor of Arts (French Language & Literature): First Class Honours (1996)

Massey University, New Zealand - Certificate in Public Relations & Communications (1997)

Experience / Qualifications

- Eight years working in PR agencies (corporate communications and issues management, including for the French team participating in the 2003 America's Cup in NZ)

- 12 months teaching English as a second language (Nouvelle-Caledonie)

Jonas
Spanish for Speakers of other Languages (all levels)
Spanish is the second language in terms of the number of native speakers, just behind Mandarin Chinese. It is also the mother tongue for twenty nationalities in America, Europe, and Africa. It is also quite similar to Italian or Portuguese, so it might help you to reach some understanding of those languages. I ́ve been studying English and French at school for a number of years, so I can perfectly get on students ́ shoes.
