I am a native French speaker with five years of experience tutoring French at all levels. I hold a Master's degree in translation studies and am passionate about translating Anglophone and Francophone literature, as well as teaching French. This allows me to ignite enthusiasm in my students, encouraging them to explore the beauty and complexity of the French language and culture to a high level of achievement. To stimulate my students’ French speaking, writing, reading, and listening skills, I incorporate readings of Francophone literature excerpts, listening to French music and film extracts, French linguistic theoretical teaching, and the practice of French through activity notebooks into my lessons. Having lived in France for 19 years, I bring a deep understanding of French culture to my classes. My lessons focus on improving oral skills and pronunciation while enriching my students' vocabulary, grammar, and cultural understanding of French through informal conversations and engaging activities, making the practice of French interactive, light-hearted, and effective.

You can choose one of the following three part as your learning content
Chinese daily conversation: You will be introduced to the basics of the Chinese language, its structure, and its unique features, including the writing system, tones, and grammar. We will explore the evolution of written Chinese, from oracle bone script to modern Mandarin, and highlight its influence on East Asia and the world. Special attention will be paid to the complexity and beauty of Chinese characters, as well as the ways in which language reflects culture.

Chinese Literature: This part of the course will provide an overview of China’s literary heritage, ranging from ancient poetry and classical novels to modern works. Key texts, such as the Book of Songs, Tao Te Ching, Journey to the West, and works by influential modern authors like Lu Xun, will be analyzed in terms of their historical context, thematic concerns, and artistic styles. You will also explore how literature has been a vehicle for cultural identity, social critique, and the preservation of Chinese values over centuries.

Chinese Philosophy: We will examine the profound philosophical traditions that have emerged from China, including Confucianism, Daoism, Legalism, and Buddhism. Through studying classic texts like Confucius' Analects, Laozi’s Dao De Jing, and the writings of influential thinkers such as Zhuangzi and Sunzi, you will gain insight into Chinese concepts of morality, politics, nature, and the self. We will also explore how these philosophical ideas continue to impact modern China and influence global thought.
