Originally from Vendome in the Loir-et-Cher, I am a versatile native French teacher who has been teaching students of all ages and levels in London for more than 30 years. My students' French language knowledge ranges from complete beginner to advanced levels: as well as teaching adults, I teach French to primary school children and conversation skills to A-levels students. For 30 years, I have also tutored students for French exams and taught adults in one to one and groups in companies and government agencies. As an applied linguist (MA), I am passionate about all aspects of foreign language learning and teaching and I always aim to provide a positive learning experience in order to help students develop a long-lasting interest in languages regardless of their age, level or ability. My teaching classroom practices are influenced by communicative and task-based language teaching. As a constuctivist, I strive to make my students active and inquisitive participants in class in order to enhance their own learning experience. My classes are accessible, lively and interactive, and I try to use authentic French material to make my classes cultural as well as linguistic.

Please note: We reserve the right to change our tutors from those advertised. This happens rarely, but if it does, we are unable to refund fees due to this. Our tutors may have different teaching styles; however we guarantee a consistent quality of teaching in all our courses.
