About Me
italki teacher since Apr 30, 2020
InterestsTravelPets & AnimalsMusicArt
Initially I finished my baccalaureate in Literature (2001) but since then life brought me a bit everywhere between highs and lows. I volunteered for various populations (4 years), and graduated in BSSW (2019) Swiss, I call myself a wanderer because my heart got colored with all the beautiful cultures I have encountered on my exotic journey in Europe, Kenya and Philippines. Nowadays, apart of being a French teacher I am also an artist: I paint, sculpt, craft, play music, sing and dance mostly for the joy of creating beauty. Also I love trying news things, exploring, connecting with people and ideas. Let's talk, let's share! Teach me something about life while I teach you French!

I had a great introductory lesson! Xandra is perfect for anyone tired of strict teachers and rigid curriculums. She creates a welcoming environment and provides excellent feedback. We had an easy and free-flowing conversation about various topics. She explained grammatical concepts and things about Swiss culture in a kind and patient manner. Anyone would benefit from a lesson with Xandra, from complete beginners to more advanced students. I'm excited for my next class.

Xandra allows me to practice French conversation that doesn't feel like teaching or babying. She patiently listens and helps out so we can have intelligent, thought provoking conversations despite my super rusty French. I would never have thought to have conversations on this level despite barely speaking any French for the past decade! Xandra's cosmopolitan attitude and ways of thinking are a breath of fresh air, compared to the "France is superior" attitude common in the world of teaching French. If you are thinking you need a French teacher from France, think twice :)

Xandra is super nice and friendly and I feel comfortable to ask her questions. She is very patient with me and encouraging. I would personally like a little bit more structure to the lessons - perhaps a focus on one particular topic such as grammar or a particular theme. This would help me keep going and use the lesson time as efficiently as possible.

Zandra is an amazing tutor. She helps me practice my french conversationally and is completely non-judgmental. I am always nervous about speaking French as I am not too great yet, but after the first few minutes I was no longer nervous. Lessons are laid back and it's very easy to talk to her. She is very patient and speaks to you as if speaking with a native, explaining the parts you do not understand. She is flexible and fun. I couldn't recommend her enough!

Xandra is an excellent French teacher—she is engaging, easy to converse with, and created a comfortable environment. She provides just the right amount of help, allowing space to practice while guiding when needed. Most importantly, she is very encouraging, which made talking with her both enjoyable and motivating.
