Learn with pleasure and rigor! Tailor-made English, Spanish, and French courses in a dynamic and fun atmosphere.

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Early in my career, I taught using the Berlitz method, known for its immersive approach.

Today, I mainly use Headway materials, which allow my students to progress at their own pace and reinforce their learning between lessons, independently if they wish.

Thanks to my experience as a Gymnase student, I am fully familiar with the Vaud curriculum and the expectations of the final exams.

I like to set the bar high because I believe that high standards and kindness go hand in hand to help my students give their best and successfully achieve their goals. My classes are dynamic and fun.

About Me

Trilingue en anglais, français et espagnol.
Originaire de Colombie, j'ai eu la chance de vivre et d'étudier en Californie avant de m'installer en Suisse, où j'ai poursuivi des études approfondies en langues étrangères.

Depuis plus de 30 ans, j'enseigne avec enthousiasme aussi bien en cours privés qu'en entreprise. Mon parcours m'a menée en Chine, où j'ai enseigné l'anglais pendant deux ans, ainsi qu'en Californie, où j'ai donné des cours de français.

En Suisse, j'ai débuté comme assistante d’anglais avant d'enseigner au gymnase de la Cité. Aujourd'hui, je me spécialise dans l'enseignement aux jeunes adultes et aux adultes, un public que j'apprécie particulièrement pour sa motivation et sa curiosité.

Dynamique, bienveillante et investie, j’aime transmettre mes connaissances dans un cadre convivial et stimulant.
Voir mes élèves progresser, gagner en assurance et atteindre leurs objectifs est ce qui me motive chaque jour.
