Hello, my name is Rym!

I am bilingual in English and attended international schools for part of my education. Currently studying International Business, I offer English lessons to help finance my studies while sharing my passion for the language.

Motivated and dynamic, I adopt an interactive and personalized approach. I don't believe that a language can be learned solely through exercises: for me, each lesson must be tailored to the individual, in order to make learning more natural and effective.
