Holder of a Bachelor's Degree in English Language & Literature from the University of Michigan and a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics from the University of Manchester, certified in CELTA (Certificate of Proficiency in Teaching English at non-English speaking people) by the British Council, I specialize in the areas of academic English (high school "baccalaureate program", preparation for official exams such as: TOEIC, IELTS, TOEFL), in addition to professional English (Legal English). I encourage the learner to get out of his comfort zone to reach his "learning zone" and allow him to acquire new skills by encouraging him to allow himself to make mistakes and to appropriate this right to error as well as by valuing experimentation and initiative by promoting autonomy. I help students discover their potential, support them as they gain confidence in their abilities, and assist them in achieving their personal and professional goals.
