Since 2000, I have been teaching German (UQÀM, Polytechnique de Montréal and Ashbury College as well as private courses), and French (teacher and pedagogical advisor for schools with special attention to the government's language exams).
I have taught Latin for 5 years at a high school in Rome.
Fluent in the three aforementioned languages.
Communicative Approach, where the simple, efficient and clear use of the language (execution) becomes more important than the sole knowledge of its grammar (competence).
No direct translation is involved since it's about learning, not translating from a language into another.
Practice makes permanent, not perfect.
Extremely flexible.
Attention: lessons via Skype all over the world (German, French, Latin).
