About Me
italki teacher since Feb 27, 2014Interest topicWritingReadingMusic
Hey, I'm Lisiane!
I'm a native French speaker, originally from Switzerland but I grew up in French-speaking West Africa and have also lived a few years in France.
I grew up trilingual (French, German and English), have learned Spanish, some Arabic and now some Turkish and Hebrew.
In other words, I know what it's like to be a language student! Due to my long-term experience learning and teaching languages, I have many useful and practical tips for learning to speak a language fast.
My interests are: reading, making music, watching movies and blogging.
I look forward to meeting you!
À bientôt!Me as a Teacher
I have taught in several different schools with different teaching methods and each unique approach has enriched my own way of teaching. I like teaching in a practical way to help my students apply what they learned as soon as possible and enabling them to get by even with a beginner's level.
Having learned a few languages myself, I can share reliable and highly efficient techniques I used to be able to overcome the speaking barrier most students face!
(PLEASE NOTE: For those of you who want to work with me because I am Swiss so I can teach you Swiss French and Swiss Culture, I will only be able to help you a little, since I didn't grow up or spend many years in Switzerland myself.)My lessons & teaching style
My aim is always to empower you to start speaking some French, even if you're a beginner!
The lessons usually starts with a written online article or a textbook dialogue. You practice pronunciation through reading out loud. Then we look at the new vocabulary together and a little bit of grammar, followed by some exercises. Finally, you will practice conversation by answering some questions I ask you around the theme of the text and that leads to a small and hopefully interesting conversation together.
Of course this isn't set in stone and we can do something else entirely, if you wish!
I look forward to meeting you!My teaching material

It was a really excellent lesson. I learnt a lot. It was a very engaging lesson. I will definitely be having other lessons with this wonderful and engaging teacher. She helped me use my current limited understanding of French to get a much better grasp of French. 10 stars out of 5, that is she was really, really excellent.
