With years of experience working with students of different nationalities, I have developed a flexible and interactive method that allows for effective learning and the pleasure of writing, whether for school, professional or leisure purposes.

I offer simple, concrete and effective French lessons, adapted to the level and objectives of each student, whether it is to improve written expression, oral expression, grammar or confidence in the use of the language.

I also provide support in creative writing (Poetry, Novel, Screenwriting).

About Me
Passionate about languages, I lived abroad for several years, where I taught French to students of many nationalities (including my girlfriend) while perfecting my English alongside them.

As a bilingual person, I want to share my knowledge and show that language learning can be effective, practical and above all much more fun than it seems.
Education
Master's degree (Bac +5) in Management & Business Strategy.

With 2 years of experience in Australia and 6 months in Ireland, my method has proven successful with more than 10 different nationalities.

Thanks to interactive and tailor-made methods, developed with different nationalities, I offer lively and effective courses, designed to progress quickly and above all to gain fluency in speaking.

Convinced that languages are learned primarily through practice, I prioritize concrete and useful exchanges from the very first sessions.

Having graduated with a master's degree from a business school, with international experience in Ireland and two years of living and working in Australia, I have evolved in varied and multicultural professional environments, where English was an everyday language, not a school subject.

Today, I put this experience to use for my students, with a simple, concrete and effective approach to English, while continuing to write my first fiction novel.

Courses available in Caen and its surrounding area, as well as in Paris proper, either in person or via videoconference.

A teacher for 20 years, holding French as a second language certification, I give, at the learner's choice, general French courses, reverse pedagogy courses (see explanations below) or French conversation courses.

I am indeed concerned with offering the learner a course that best meets their expectations and needs. Because it is not easy to dare to express yourself in a foreign language, I like to work in a caring atmosphere, without judgment, sometimes speaking French when it reassures the learner.

Keep in mind that the most important thing is practicing oral comprehension/expression. An hour of conversation class allows you to practice the language orally for an hour, with only brief corrections of your mistakes and a quick reminder of the vocabulary/grammar you are missing. If you want to go deeper into grammar, vocabulary and written comprehension, it is advisable to choose classes lasting 1h30 to 2h to reserve a minimum of 1h for practicing oral expression and comprehension (if your budget allows it, of course).

You then have two options:
1. In a one-hour general French course, expect 15 minutes of grammar and written expression, 15 minutes of written comprehension and vocabulary, 15 minutes of oral expression and 15 minutes of oral comprehension. Therefore, plan on a two-hour course if you want to have a minimum of 1 hour of oral expression/comprehension (30 minutes of each).
2. If you want to opt for a more economical solution, you can also plan on a 1h30 course and follow a course in reverse pedagogy. You will then have one hour of class in the presence of the teacher during which you will focus only on practice (conversation and oral comprehension). You will also have about an hour of work at home which will be more oriented towards theory (grammar, vocabulary, written expression and written comprehension). This is an independent course and you have an answer key to help you identify any mistakes you may have. It is of course possible to ask your questions about the time in the presence of the teacher, but these are more questions focused on your individual difficulties. This is the complete opposite of a traditional course where the theory is seen in class (in the form of general explanations by the teacher, which are the same for all learners) and the practice is worked on at home (often in the form of application exercises, without always having the possibility of receiving answers to your questions): this is why we are talking about reverse pedagogy. A course in reverse pedagogy requires more preparation time and you will therefore be billed for thirty minutes of preparation for the independent course.

Only courses in inverted pedagogy are accompanied by a work program to be completed at home. On a general French course, the homework will not exceed 2 or 3 exercises.
