My belief is that each student is different and requires a tailor made lesson to meet that student’s needs and goals. Every class is personalised for your own profile and is adapted as needed. I give priority to conversation, convinced that even from the very first day, one can start to communicate in the new language and thus gain confidence to go on. I base my courses on the four essential competencies: speaking, listening, writing and reading, always focusing on your personal goals and motivation. I progressively integrate phonetics, grammar, conjugation, vocabulary in the courses which always include practical exercises. You will also learn a lot about the culture as it is deeply linked to the language. The pedagogic materials I choose are mostly created for native speakers : texts from literature, newspapers, radio podcasts, videos, songs.... Indeed, I am convinced that the learning process has to tackle « real subjects », as languages are alive and constantly changing. My main challenge is to help the learners to be able to « think » in the second language. The debate is the heart of my classroom, but always in a playful way, through many role games — for me learning a language is first and foremost a great joy !
I teach with a positive mindset, which suits my cheerful personality. Having practiced this method myself, I have successfully learned 5 languages. I can teach in French, Russian, Italian, Spanish and English. All courses are tailor-made for you, although I give priority to conversation. The classes are based on the competencies of the European framework for languages CECRL: speaking, listening, writing, and reading. Come discover how fun is to learn Russian!!

I've really enjoyed my lessons so far with Célie-Anne. She has a positive approach to learning and has adapted her lessons well to my level of understanding. I've found them productive and would recommend to others.
