Bonjour!
I’m a native French speaker from Paris, with a multicultural background that deeply influences my teaching style. I’m half Japanese, half African, and growing up with a diverse perspective on French culture has shaped how I approach language instruction. I bring this rich cultural blend into every lesson I teach. ?✨
MY LESSONS
*Beginners (A0 to A2): Using pictures, videos, and quizzes, we’ll make rapid progress while having fun. From day one, you’ll be speaking French!??
MY TEACHING STYLE
*As a former lawyer, I understand the importance of clear goals.? My lessons are relaxed but purposeful, ensuring you leave each session with a sense of achievement. I focus heavily on speaking practice?️ — many students reach an intermediate level and feel stuck when it comes to conversations. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an intermediate learner, we’ll work together to boost your confidence.
*I also specialize in explaining cultural differences, providing you with the keys to understanding the French mindset. ??We’ll explore the richness of French-speaking African cultures ??— did you know that 62.5% of the 362 million French speakers worldwide live in Africa? There’s so much to discover!
I have a passion for working with shy students ? and helping them gain the confidence to speak French comfortably.?
WHO AM I?
*A Polyglot: My language journey started with English,followed by German, Japanese, Chinese, and now Spanish. Learning a language is a marathon, not a sprint ?♀️?, and I’m still running! ?
*A Music Explorer: I’ve dabbled in several instruments, from the piano ? and cello? to the Chinese Dong Xiao flute ? and, more recently, the handpan.
*A Classical Music Lover: In the summer, I can’t resist the classical music festivals in Europe ? — Salzburg's being one of my favorites ??.
*An Avid Reader: in French,English,Spanish... Always up for a challenge! ??
*A Spiritual Explorer: I believe in the power of self-discovery ? and mindfulness ?♀️ to nurture inner peace and growth. ✨
MY EDUCATIONNAL BACKGROUND
Formerly a lawyer, I transitioned to become a certified life coach in 2023. This background enables me to guide you through not just language learning but also personal growth and confidence-building.?✨
MY STUDENTS
