Bonjour, je suis Michael 🥰
I’m a certified French teacher, living between Paris and Beijing.
I hold two masters' degrees in International Relations and in Teaching French as a Foreign Language.
I’m passionate about contemporary art 🍄, history 🏛️, travel 🌊, sports 🏈, and cooking 🦞 — and I love sharing French culture with others!
Ich als Lehrkraft
🏫 2020–2022: Alliance Française of Xi’an, China – 2 years
🏫 2022–2024: City of Paris – School for Refugees – 2 years
🏫 2024–2025: Alliance Française of Beijing, China – Delf Examiner – 1 year
I’ve also been teaching online for over two years on other platforms.
I’ve helped dozens of students successfully pass official French exams (DELF, DALF), and supported expatriates in reaching a professional level of French for work.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
📝 During our first session, I’ll assess your level with a short test and discuss your goals. Together, we’ll create a personalized learning plan.
🚀 My motto: Tailored lessons, real progress.
🌈 My teaching style is friendly, patient, and supportive — I believe you learn best when you feel comfortable making mistakes.
🐢 As I’m not fully satisfied with standard textbooks, I create my own materials based on your level and interests.
💪 Having studied Chinese myself, I understand the challenges of learning a foreign language — and how to overcome them.
Je viens d'avoir mon premier cours avec Michael. Pendant ce cours, il a évalué mon niveau actuel de français et on a crée un plan pour mon apprentissage. Il sait identifier les erreurs et m'a aidé à les corriger. De toute façon, il est sympa et patient. Hâte d'assister à plus de cours avec lui !

A great first lesson with Michael - we discussed my learning objectives and he tailored the lesson to best fit them, and he provided a friendly and supportive learning environment along with clear explanations.

Michael uses his own written material with dialogue and questions, asks many questions to get you to practice spoken French and is very patient!

5/5 enjoyable! Michael is very well prepared and organized, patient and friendly. He took real-time notes and provided clear and concise feedbacks and answers. I never felt uncertain, awkward nor uncomfortable.

First lesson with Michael and not the last! I enjoyed my time a lot with him, and he has great energy, which is important for me! He was very patient too as a beginner, and I did not feel judged for making mistakes and for my confusion. I felt comfortable the whole time. Looking forward to more! Merci! :)
