I’m originally from France but have been living in Latin America for several years. I’m 35 years old and passionate about languages, personal development, and conscious living. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy reading, traveling, and spending time in nature, especially near the ocean.
My educational background reflects a strong foundation in teaching and language studies. I hold a Certificat de Pédagogie de la Langue Française and have completed the TKT (Teaching Knowledge Test) modules 1, 2, and 3. I am also certified as a Conscious Leadership Coach and have earned a Docencia Virtual credential. Additionally, I spent two years studying languages at college in France, which deepened my understanding of linguistics and multicultural communication.
I have diverse experience teaching French in private schools in both Colombia and France, as well as working as a private tutor through various online platforms. Over the years, I developed my own teaching method, combining innovative strategies with practical tools to meet the unique needs of my students. My work spans both in-person and online courses, allowing me to adapt to different learning environments and help students achieve their language goals.
As a French teacher, my approach centers on empowering students to use the language effectively in real-life situations. I design functional mindmaps that serve as practical tools, helping learners visually organize and connect vocabulary, grammar, and expressions in ways that mirror natural, native-like communication. These mindmaps are tailored to real-world scenarios, enabling students to confidently navigate conversations and interactions.
I place a strong emphasis on habit-building as the cornerstone of language acquisition. By encouraging consistent journaling, I guide students to reflect on their learning, track progress, and reinforce new knowledge. This practice helps them cumulatively build and associate language skills, creating a robust foundation for fluency.
Through engaging activities and personalized guidance, I aim to foster an immersive and interactive environment where students feel inspired to experiment, make mistakes, and grow into confident French speakers.
I am open to working everyday, even early or late hours to accommodate different time zones, depending on availability and the specific needs of my students. For example, I can adapt to provide intensive preparation for exams or other time-sensitive goals, ensuring a focused and personalized approach leading up to important dates.
I have extensive experience teaching French, both in-person and online. I have taught at private schools in Colombia and France, and have served as a private tutor on various platforms. Currently, I offer online French instruction, allowing me to connect with students worldwide while residing in Latin America. This online format enables me to provide flexible, personalized lessons tailored to each student's needs, regardless of their location.
