Hi! I'm Josie! I'm an American currently living in France. I have always had a passion for travel and learning new languages. My students would describe me as caring, fun, and easy-going. I love meeting new people and talking about their unique perspectives on life. One day, I would love to speak as many languages as possible so that I can meet even more people around the world. I know how important it is to find a language teacher who believes in you and encourages you. That's what I do best! I create a safe place for you to learn. Our classes together will be full of laughter, joy, and curiosity! I also love to dance, sing, go to the theatre and participate in anything creative!
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I'll make our lessons fun as I truly feel this is the best way to learn a language. Personally, I have found that while learning foreign languages (French, Japanese, and Spanish) having a teacher who is enthusiastic is what has kept me consistent and has helped me become even more fluent. I have spent the past year privately tutoring students in learning English . My students would describe both me and my classes as warm, safe, stress-free, and fun.
My lessons & teaching style
Before our first lesson, I'll ask you what your level is so that I can gauge what I will prepare for you. I will also spend the first lesson getting to know you so that the next lesson we can center our time together around topics that you are passionate about: art, cooking, cinema, theatre, music, travel, culture...anything really! For me, one of the most important motivators in learning a new language is having someone to cheer you on. I'm a great encourager and our lessons will always be fun, relaxed, and positive.

I don't have much confidence when I speak English, but I gained more confidence thanks to your encouragement. I'm looking forward to our classes in the future. I'm so happy to find you. Thank you for coming to italki!
