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!
PLEASE NOTE : MY SCHEDULE IS FULL WEEKS IN ADVANCE. FOR NOW, I DO NOT ACCEPT NEW STUDENTS
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 !

Although I have had only one class with him so far, I can already tell Michael has a very well-consolidated method and knows how to motivate his students in the right way. Just bought a new package, and I am looking forward to having more classes with him! I definitely do recommend him!

Michael is a really great teacher. He is demanding and challenging, but thanks to that I feel like I’ve learned faster and better. He’s kind and patient but doesn’t let you be lazy. I highly recommend him but leave him time to still be my teacher, please.

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