Passionate about the French language, I now wish to share what reading gave me from a very young age: a love of words, nuances, and ideas. As a teenager, I was an avid reader of dystopian novels. Over time, my interest in debate has become a driving force: it motivates me to enrich my vocabulary, refine my arguments, and bring the language to life more fully, both orally and in writing. As a French teacher, I want to offer a dynamic and stimulating learning experience, where progress is made through understanding, discussion, and building confidence, whether it's improving expression, grammar, writing, or public speaking skills.

What to expect?

Young children - More of a game/activity learning method but also involves learning a broad scheme of things. It is in a way, an introduction to the basics of the language.

Teenagers - Usually involve set goals to reach by a certain period (for school). The teaching method and intensity depends on the amount of catching up to do.
If no catch up is required a more friendly learning method can be applied depending on the learner's interests.

Adults - More of a discussion-based learning method, depending on the experience of the learner. And can be oriented more towards specific subjects or domains chosen by the learner. It can involve course work or tasks to be done.

Why me?

I was born in Scotland but I grew up mostly in the french-speaking part of Belgium so I would say that both English and French are my natal languages.

I have decent knowledge of the various English cultures, vocabulary, and grammar.
Having traveled for a year in North America and having lived in Australia, Ireland, and Britain.

My mother is an english teacher in a secondary school and has given private english lessons ever since we moved to Belgium when I was six years old . I have participated or helped in many classes when needed.

I have access to a ton of material and her personal knowledge if I or we are experiencing a problem that we can't seem to solve. Or an issue the learner is experiencing that is preventing him/her from advancing.

I am a very "auto-ditact" person who tries to maximize the resources I have and the ones I have access to. I am good at understanding and solving problems and I believe that I can apply this to teaching as well.

I am a very professional person that tries to stay as relaxed and calm as possible. I am also extremely patient and have a lot of dedication.
If there is a deadline and a goal to meet, I will try my very best to make things work.

Additional info

I also know the humiliation that we sometimes feel when speaking a foreign language. I try to be as impartial and non-judgemental as I can in order to make the person feel as relaxed as possible when communicating with them.
