About Me
italki teacher since Mar 25, 2022InterestsScienceEnvironment & NatureTravelFood
I am from the center of France, traveling and living around the world to work as a scubadiver guide and french tutor, and sometimes as an independant backer. I graduated in ecology, I am passionate about nature and travel.
I am very patient, so the course will be at your own pace and focused on your needs. I adapt the content of my courses to each student. I am curious and open, we will be able to discuss many subjects, we will not be bored.
I base myself on my experience of learning Portuguese quickly in Brazil to help my students save time in learning French. I speak French as much as possible to get you used to the language. I teach you everyday French to have conversations like a French and not formal like in French class at school. I teached really beginners but also helped advanced french speakers to get more confident and increase their vocabulary so doesn't matter your level, we will find the perfect pace for you ! For beginners we will also work on your pronunciation so you know how to pronounce each new word you learn in the future.My teaching material

Maëlle is incredibly patient and a wonderful teacher. I had to take an unexpected hiatus due to work and other reasons. When I was able to return to classes, we jumped right back into our curriculum. Maëlle plans great lessons, and is very supportive even when my French is kind of messy! I really appreciate her, and would recommend that you start your French-language journey with Maëlle if you are at all on the fence. I think you'll be happy you did. :)

Maëlle is an excellent teacher! She noticed early on which skills I needed to learn. She promptly showed me a document with the structure and examples. Using a visual guide, we then talked about what I did last weekend. It was very helpful. I will request a class again soon. ❤️

I couldn't have asked for a better teacher. I have learned many things from her and she knows her grammar very well. She is always optimistic and supportive. Goes above and beyond!

Maëlle was very good at keeping the conversation going when I was struggling to put my thoughts into words. This was my first french lesson and it was very helpful to have her there to steer me in the right direction.
