InterestsFilms & TV SeriesReadingWritingEnvironment & NatureHistory

I'm passionate about languages and started my journey with French at the age of nine. Since then, languages have become a central part of my life. I am a polyglot and lived in Argentina for five years, an experience that deeply shaped my linguistic and cultural perspective. Beyond languages, I am deeply passionate about literature, which strongly influences the way I teach: with attention to nuance, expression, and cultural context. I believe learning a language is not just about grammar, but about understanding how people think, feel, and tell their stories.

Me as a Teacher

I have three years of experience teaching French on different online platforms and have delivered more than 600 hours of lessons. I hold the DALF C2 certification, which demonstrates full professional proficiency in French. I support students from absolute beginner level (A0) to advanced level (C2). I offer both complete, structured courses and targeted lessons focused on international exams, adapting the content to each student’s goals and learning needs.

My lessons & teaching style

My lessons are dynamic and designed to maximize learning through engagement. I use games and interactive activities to make learning more effective and to spark students’ interest, especially when working on less attractive topics such as grammar. I regularly use cultural resources such as excerpts from books, songs, and films to illustrate the topics studied and show how French is used in real contexts. I work on all language skills—listening, reading, writing, and speaking—but I place a strong emphasis on oral expression, helping students gain confidence and communicate naturally from the very beginning.
