Salut ! :) I'm Cynthia, 30 years old, a native French speaker. Previously an engineer with a passion for language learning, I decided to switch careers and become a French teacher, which brings me so much joy. I graduated with High Honors the first year of a Master's degree in Teaching French as a Foreign Language. With me, you'll learn the most effective way to learn French using various neuroscience-based tips, tested through my own experience learning other languages, and you'll get confidence in both speaking and writing! My hobbies include traveling (+40 countries!), learning languages, music (singing, piano), fiction writing and blogging, cooking, and more 🌸

Me as a Teacher

What differentiates me from others is that : - I integrate culture teaching with language teaching - I have an action-oriented approach - I teach you how to remember absolutely everything I can identify to you through my own experience learning languages. 🎓 Education & Certifications: - Master’s Degree in Teaching Languages – Université du Mans (France= (1st year with High Honors, 2nd year in progress) - Bachelor’s Degree in Linguistics, option French as a Foreign Language – Université de Rouen (France) (High Honors) - Master's Degree in Engineering Management – Duke University (USA) - Diplôme d'ingénieur de l'Ecole Centrale de Nantes (France)

My lessons & teaching style

I teach the language at the same time as French old and modern culture, history, gastronomy, geography, politics, artists... so that you can blend in with French people easily. My classes are a safe, motivating space where you can speak freely, make mistakes, and grow. I also provide authentic resources to help you understand how French is actually spoken in daily life. 🎤 At the end of each unit, I will prepare a project or task for you to complete alone, with a French penpal, or with another student, to help you use French in a real-life natural way. I currently use the textbook series "Edito" but I complete it with a lot of external ressources so that your learning is complete and fun!
