About Me

Interest topicFilms & TV SeriesTravelHistory
I am a French-American, born in Los Angeles, California, raised in snowy Rochester, New York. I currently live in Nice, France.
I love to travel and learn about new cultures and languages. I've traveled to many countries, but some of my favorites have been Peru, Mexico, Greece, Vietnam, and of course - France. My dad is from Paris, and my sister and I grew up spending our summers in the South of France.
I also love houseplants, dancing, cinema, music, art, and the beach. Although I love and live in the city, I feel at home in the jungle, or swimming with whales, dolphins and fish.
My dream is to travel to every country in the world!
Me as a Teacher
Come hang out with me! My teaching environment is very casual and relaxed, and I am TEFL certified. Whether you want to have a chill speaking environment or are preparing for an exam or job interview, I can help!
I also have field experience in marketing, copywriting, editing and translation. If you have English writing that you need proofread, feel free to book a consultation with me under my "Copywriting" lesson option. I have edited websites, job applications, fantasy novels, and much more.
I love learning about your countries, cultures and interests. No topics are off limits, as long as we are only speaking English! :)
My lessons & teaching style
I like to focus mostly on conversation and oral learning. Depending on your comfort level with English, I will ask many questions about yourself, or let you choose the topic of our lesson.
I will correct your grammar when it's necessary - but don't be afraid to make mistakes! It is always the best way to learn.
I will sometimes assign a task before our next lesson, such as reading a blog, writing a journal entry, or watching an English video clip.
Sophie is our 8 and 10-year-olds English teacher and she is nothing short of amazing. She effortlessly connects with the kids, blending educational content with their interests in a fun and engaging way. Her humor adds a delightful touch to the lessons, making learning a joy.
The kids eagerly anticipate her weekly classes, and the hour always seems too short for them—they're hungry for more! Her unique ability to make learning both educational and enjoyable is truly amazing.
We highly recommend Sophie to parents looking for a fantastic online English teacher for their children. She is perfect!!
