French Made Simple: Language, Support & Culture / From Paris to Canada

My name is Lancelot. I’m a native French speaker from Paris, currently studying architecture after completing a degree in international economics. I’ve always had a passion for languages, culture, and sharing knowledge.

I lived in Edmonton, Alberta for a year as part of an exchange program, and I’m fluent in both French and English. I'm enthusiastic, curious, and open-minded, and I enjoy creating connections through language and culture. Teaching French is a way for me to share not only the language, but also the richness of French daily life, expressions, and traditions.
I offer a variety of French language sessions tailored to different needs, levels, and interests. These include:

Academic Support: Help with school homework, grammar explanations, reading comprehension, and preparation for French-language exams or assessments.
Test & Exam Review: Focused revision sessions to prepare for specific tests, including oral practice, writing skills, and targeted grammar exercises.
Cultural Discovery: Sessions that go beyond the language to explore French culture—through music, film, food, history, and everyday life in France.
Conversation Workshops: Casual, friendly opportunities to improve spoken French through guided conversation, games, and roleplay, adapted to each level.
Interactive Activities in French: Thematic workshops and animations (games, storytelling, creative activities) conducted entirely in French to make language learning fun and immersive—ideal for children or groups.
Whether you are a beginner, a student needing support, or simply curious about French language and culture, I’m happy to adapt each session to your goals and interests. Sessions can be individual or in groups, online or in person depending on location and availability.

Extra information

I will be staying in Calgary from the end of August until the end of September, and I’m available during that time to offer intensive French classes.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I'm a native French speaker from Paris, fluent in English, with a background in international economics and currently studying architecture. I spent a year living in Edmonton as part of an exchange program, which deepened my interest in cultural exchange and connection. Curious, adaptable, and creative, I enjoy sharing ideas and experiences across languages, disciplines, and cultures.

Education

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I began my academic journey with a degree in international economics and management at the Catholic University of Lille, where I also specialized in art and creativity through theater, photography, and fine arts. During that time, I had the opportunity to take part in an exchange program in Edmonton, Canada, where I studied the business of cultural and creative industries at MacEwan University.

After completing my bachelor's degree, I decided to pursue my passion for design and enrolled in architecture school in Paris. I'm currently studying at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture de Paris-La Villette, where I'm deepening my knowledge of architectural design, space, and built environments.

This academic path reflects both my analytical and creative sides, and has shaped the open, curious, and interdisciplinary approach I bring to every project.

Experience / Qualifications

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I'm a native French speaker from Paris, currently studying architecture after completing a degree in international economics and management. Alongside my academic background, I've always had a strong interest in teaching, sharing knowledge, and working with others—especially children and young learners.

For over 10 years, I was actively involved in the French Scouts, where I organized games, workshops, and activities for children of various ages. This experience taught me how to create engaging, educational moments in a fun and inclusive way. I've also taken part in volunteer projects, like leading activities for food bank fundraising or helping build a school in Ecuador.

I've had the chance to explore different cultures through many internships (Iceland, Lyon, Paris etc) and an academic exchange in Edmonton, where I studied cultural and creative industries. I speak fluent English, and I enjoy using language not just as a tool, but as a bridge between people and cultures.

Whether through academic support, conversation practice, or creative workshops, I love making learning feel natural, playful, and personal. I'm patient, curious, and adaptable—always happy to adjust to the needs of each learner and to create a positive, culturally rich learning experience.

Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

French courses for students in school and students who would like to improve in the language.
French is one of the most influential languages in the world. Knowing how to speak, read and write it while understanding the significant accuracy of the words used is an asset that unfortunately very few master. My lessons are based on my student's expectations, the areas in which he wants to work will be implemented.

Abdoul Kader
French support courses for middle and high school
Experienced teacher and chalk in hand, offers coaching (online or at home) taking into account the learner's level and adopting the most appropriate method for adequate monitoring. Online, the sessions will be recorded and the video will be available for the listener (for their revisions). If you are an intermediate (non-exam) student, looking to upgrade and fill the gaps that could potentially hinder you in an exam class, you will find the skills and experience competition to be sure to meet the challenge. Whatever your fear or certainty of the weakness of your level, our promise is to raise you to performance. If you are a student in an exam class, you will find, through various media, the resources allowing you to get up to speed and approach the tests with more confidence, with the certainty of a positive result. The difficulties related to analysis (grammatical as well as logical), conjugation, spelling, vocabulary, the methodology of the exam tests (essay, summary, commentary), the understanding of texts, genres and literary trends will no longer be a secret or a pitfall to your success. The same goes for literary analysis tools: lexical and semantic fields, figures of speech, textual typologies, etc. We have already supervised auditors online or in person with satisfactory results, using a method centered on the learner and taking into account their abilities and limitations. We proceed with a flexible method according to the level of development of the auditor/learner to avoid any dropout that may arise from reluctance or apprehension.
