Fun Facts

It has been said that French is the language of love. Let's learn how to love! I mean let's learn how to speak French! Thant is how I graduated in French language and I want to transmit this love language to all who like to read and listen to some of the best literary works in their original version. I would recommend you to give it a try and learn it easily even if some people says that it is a hard language to learn!

About Me

I am a graduate in French language and Literature from Boston University. I've started to teach right after my Bachelors, from 2007 to present. I hope to attend in Northwestern University for my PhD but what makes me motivated always is the passion to teach and to be in contact with motivated and driven people who like to develop their interpersonal skills in different languages.

Experience

After my Bachelors I attended to teacher training courses in the Embassy of France to grasp the first-hand knowledge in teaching with interactive methods. I've been teaching French since 2008 and at the meantime I attended university for my Master's degree. I have a wide gamut of experience in teaching with different methods for different type of language learners, from novice to advanced levels. I've taught French for business, for passing exams like TCF DAP, TEF Q and also DELF .

Approach

I ground my approach upon the need of my students and their age. there are different manuals specifically for business or for teenagers. Besides that, I prefer interactive methods which basically put student in a real, authentic situation where they need to sort out a problem with the usage of language. this method give more confidence in student's knowledge of language and help them learn grammatical points and vocabulary in an unconscious way. In other word, I insist on cultu usage of language
