About Me
italki teacher since Oct 12, 2021
Interest topicMusicFoodHistoryAnimation & ComicsFilms & TV Series
I was born and raised in France: I started learning English at 8 years old, I picked up Spanish at 12 and obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Foreign Languages "Magna Cum Laude". I have been studying Japanese as an autodidact for 5 years, and I also dabble in Italian. I have a Master's degree (in Wine and Spirits Management) which allowed me to travel around the world.
I have been living in the US for 4 years, working in a winery as a Tour Guide/Wine Educator, so I am used to sharing my knowledge with people from a wide variety of backgrounds. I have a passion for learning and sharing, always with a smile!
Me as a Teacher
As French is my native language, and as I am living in the US, I will be able to help you improve any aspect of the language that you wish to work on! My approach is intuitive: I will adapt the lesson to your needs. We can discuss your objectives together and take it from there. I am very patient, passionate and I will try my very best to share my love for languages with you!
The most important thing to improve, in my opinion, is to practice. The more we chat, the better you will become! You need to make mistakes to learn, so it does not matter if you struggle with some things: any little hiccup is an opportunity to learn.
My lessons & teaching style
I usually start by assessing your level on our first session, and from there, I can curate to your objectives: my favorite tool to use is Google Docs for feedback.
My goal is to ensure that you feel confident enough to express yourself in French, so I will take note of the things that can be improved but I will avoid interrupting you in the middle of a sentence (except if you ask for my help, to find a word for example!). Also, I LOVE questions so you can feel free to ask away!!!
**CANCELLATION POLICY**
Lessons cancelled with less than 2 hours notice will be charged for as it is not possible to offer the time to another student. Students who do not turn up for the lesson will be charged.

I've taken lessons from Marine for a few months now and she not only has helped me become so much more confident in using my French but also is an amazing listener and conversation partner who encourages me to learn through engaging lessons! I would highly recommend learning with her!

I have been using Italki for a while and have worked with many teachers on this platform, and Marine is by far the best! She helps take notes, is organized, and is very encouraging. Lessons go by fast because of how fun they are.

She is so easy to talk to and gives me both language advice and other tips.
She is a good listener and I really feel at ease in expressing myself.
