Experience / Qualifications
I have more than fifteen years of experience teaching French, Spanish and even English as private teacher. I started when studying at university, teaching French to Chinese and Hispanic students. Obtaining great results through the specific programs I received from my own instruction, I decided to keep on going and have reached the point where I became a substitute teacher in schools in England.
Traveling a lot after high-school, I went a bit everywhere in France, then lived in England for a while. This explains the time taken to obtain my bachelor degree and to start my Master.
From working in restaurants to international relations, I traveled across Europe, went to Iran as I wanted to become a diplomat specialized in the Middle-East (learning Hebrew, Arabic and Persian). I visited Brazil and learned Portuguese, went to Italy and learned Italian, both languages spoken at a proficiency level. I use them on a regular basis for work.
I also learned English and Spanish at school and lived in Madrid.
In France I have opened a startup to offer innovative products using electromagnetic physics. Currently employed by a Spanish company as business and engineering consultant for the Anglo-Saxon and French markets - AI & construction management solutions and services.

These lessons will ensure the student to reach the highest levels of French, to succeed in their exams and certifications, as well as giving proficiency level to any professional needing it.
Learning French is not merely about acquiring grammar and vocabulary—it is about stepping into a world of thought, history, and expression. As speaking a certain language is intertwined with knowing its literature, philosophy, and history, so will you learn not only to speak French but also to understand its past and present variations.
I am a native French speaker from Normandy, born into a family where education was not simply a requirement but a lifelong devotion. From an early age, we were guided with care and discipline towards the art of speaking and writing with precision and elegance. We were encouraged—indeed, expected—to continually refine our lexicon, to master the nuances of expression, and to cultivate a vast intellectual curiosity. Our studies encompassed French, Spanish, Italian, and English literature and cultures; Latin literature and civilisation; ancient mythology; history; philosophy; and the fine arts.
In my lessons, you will not only learn French but live it—through the richness of its language, the depth of its literary heritage, and the precision of its structures. You will learn to pronounce French in its most neutral and historically authentic form, free from modern distortions. No coarse or careless words will be used; instead, you will acquire the ability to express yourself with refinement, choosing the most appropriate and elegant vocabulary for every situation.
We will dive deep into the structure and particularities of the language, with a method that follows the natural and most excellent way of acquiring speech:
Listening – to attune your ear to the rhythm and cadence of French.
Speaking – to cultivate fluency and confidence.
Reading – to absorb the literature, culture, and deeper meanings behind words.
Writing – to master precision, syntax, and style.
Speaking better – to refine expression, eloquence, and command of the language.
This is how a child learns: by listening first, then speaking, then reading, then writing—before returning to perfect speech with greater depth. This is the path I will guide you through, with rigour, but most of all, with great and benevolent manners.
Who Are My Classes For?
Those who wish to speak French fluently and with the elegance of a well-educated speaker.
Aspiring diplomats, professionals, and intellectuals seeking mastery of both language and culture.
Students and scholars who appreciate the humanities and desire a profound understanding of French.
This is not merely a language course—it is an initiation into the heritage, philosophy, and refinement of French civilisation.

All classes are given online. You will be provided with full methodology and an individual program will be generated for you to make sure you reach your goals.
Philosophy is the foundation of all knowledge, the pursuit of truth through reason, and the key to understanding the world, human nature, and society. To study philosophy is to develop the ability to think critically, argue rigorously, and grasp the underlying principles that shape reality.
Raised in a family devoted to intellectual discipline and excellence, I was immersed from an early age in classical philosophy, logic, ethics, metaphysics, and political thought. My approach is both historical and analytical, ensuring that students not only learn philosophical concepts but also develop the ability to question, debate, and apply philosophical reasoning to modern issues.
A Rigorous Methodology for Mastering Philosophy:
Understanding philosophy requires more than reading — it demands a structured approach to reasoning and analysis. I provide my students with a rigorous methodology that enables them to:
-Analyze texts with precision, identifying key arguments and logical structures.
-Construct well-formed philosophical arguments, mastering the art of reasoning and rhetoric.
-Engage in dialectical thinking, refining their thoughts through structured discussion.
-Write and express ideas with clarity and coherence, essential for academic and intellectual pursuits.
A Dual Approach: The Great Thinkers & The Great Questions:
History of Philosophy – The Evolution of Thought
-Ancient Philosophy – Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Stoicism, Epicureanism.
-Medieval & Scholastic Philosophy – St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, Duns Scotus, Suarez.
-Modern Philosophy – Descartes, Kant, Rousseau, Hegel, Nietzsche.
-Contemporary Philosophy – Existentialism, phenomenology, political philosophy, ethics, metaphysics.
Philosophical Themes – Mastering the Core Questions:
-Metaphysics & Ontology – What is reality? What is existence?
-Epistemology – How do we know what we know? What is truth?
-Ethics & Moral Philosophy – What is good? What is justice? How should we live?
-Political Philosophy – What is the best form of government? What is freedom?
-Logic & Argumentation – Learning how to construct, deconstruct, and refine arguments.
-Scholasticism – Mastering the structured reasoning of medieval philosophy, essential for theology and metaphysics.
- Languages and societal questions.
A Course Designed for Your Needs
Whether you seek to explore philosophy for personal enrichment or academic excellence, this programme is tailored to your level and goals:
-Academic support (school, high school, university)
Essay & debate preparation
-Personal enrichment (deepening your understanding of the great ideas)
-Diplomatic, political, or legal insight (for those in governance, law, or international relations)
Philosophy is not just an intellectual exercise—it is a way of seeing the world, questioning assumptions, and refining thought. With my structured methodology, you will gain the ability to navigate complex ideas with precision and confidence.
Join me, and develop a mind that is sharp, informed, and ready to engage with the deepest questions of life, to find the truth and, most important, to understand why it is true and how to act upon it.
