I am a retired diplomat and lived and worked in 12 countries where I used the aforementioned languages intensively, written and oral, both in a professional and private context.

I see myself as the perfect guide to familiarize interested parties with the practical, pragmatic use of those languages. In language education, too much attention is often paid to aspects that are of no importance in daily practice.

I specialize in teaching in different languages: mainly French, but also English, Spanish, German, Dutch, ... are among the possibilities. We will work together to master the language or the specific difficulties you encounter as quickly as possible. If required, I provide extra exercises. For pupils who are still at school, I make an overview of the progress, so that the parents and specialist teachers remain informed about the work that has been done.

Hello!
I recently moved to Beringen and am available to help with French. French is indeed my mother tongue. I also teach English as a second language. I am an educator, patient and methodical. I am used to working with children, so for me that is your problem.

The lessons can be given at my home, online or at your home!

As a former primary school teacher (French, Arabic, etc.), I invite you to take advantage of my experience to improve your French in terms of communication and reflective language activities. Two years of professional training plus a degree in fundamental studies in French language and literature.

My mothertongue is French but I am totally passionated about the Japanese language.
I lived 5 years in Japan and taught French at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto.
Also, I've always been obsessed with learning processes and improvement of learning methods, for French and Japanese.
That's why my approach is totally different to traditional language learning or to "school language learning".

In February 2020, I discovered a new method and approach Neurolanguage Coaching®, that combines:
- the principles of coaching (goal setting, action setting, motivation, commitment, goal review)
- neurosciences in the learning process (how our brain best learns, emotional intelligence).

"My own method? Speak, speak and speak in your own context! Use applied grammar and applied vocabulary to speak about yourself, your activity sector, your interests." has proven right all these years with satisfied clients.
But as Neurolanguage Coach®, I gained more finesse in coaching and more expertise in neurosciences as added-values to my long training experience in BtB. Key-word is : further more efficiency in less time.

Being able to communicate, write and understand a language is a real enrichment. Just think of being able to make a telephone conversation, explain the way, place an order in a restaurant or make a booking for a hotel... I would like to help teach the material such as vocabulary, conjugating verbs in different tenses... at your pace and to your specific needs.
