Bonjour ! Je m’appelle Christine. Je suis née en France où j’y ai obtenu une licence d’anglais. Ensuite j’ai vécu en Alberta au Canada pendant plus de 30 ans, pour désormais vivre au Costa Rica. Ayant appris 4 langues étrangères (avec l’italien), je comprends bien la démarche d’apprentissage des apprenants. Je me spécialise dans l’enseignement du français aux tout débutants (quel que soit leur âge) et aux enfants, de 3 ans à 18 ans. J’ai le talent d’expliquer les points de grammaire de façon simple et efficace. Mes étudiants progressent rapidement et adorent leurs leçons de français avec moi ! Je vous invite à réserver un cours d'essai avec moi pour que l'on puisse se rencontrer. Hello ! My name is Christine. I was born in France, where I earned a degree in English. I subsequently lived in Alberta, Canada, for over 30 years, and now reside in Costa Rica. Having learned 4 foreign languages (including Italian), I truly understand the learning process from a student's perspective. I specialize in teaching French to absolute beginners (of all ages) and to children and teenagers aged 3 to 18, where I use a highly effective method I developed myself. I also love having advanced students who want to keep their French current! Whether you are starting from scratch or looking to polish your fluency, my dynamic classes combine grammar, games, and real-life situations to make learning lively and fun. I look forward to sharing my passion for French with you soon!

Christine has been teaching my 11-year-old son for a year now and he absolutely loves his lessons. He even asked to increase from 30 minutes a week to 45 because he enjoys them so much. Christine has a warm personality and makes every class engaging with a mix of conversations, games, and different materials that keep him motivated. What really stands out is how much progress he has made. Even though he has no French outside of Christine’s lessons, he already knows so much after just a year. She also writes detailed reports after each class so I can clearly see what he has learned and how he is improving. Christine is professional, caring, and creative, and she genuinely invests in her students’ success. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a teacher who makes learning fun while delivering real results.

Christine was a fantastic French teacher for my six year old daughter. She managed to build very effectively on my child's existing French language skills gone rusty after a summer of no lessons. She's the perfect blend of warm, kind, firm and knowledgeable. My daughter's an infamous wiggle but, and Christine took it all in stride, while giving Michaela fantastic instruction.

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Christine. She is an incredible French teacher who brings so much positivity and energy to every single lesson. She has a wonderfully encouraging approach that immediately put my daughter at ease and built up her confidence in speaking and understanding French. Her teaching methods are phenomenal—she uses creative, engaging, and highly effective techniques tailored to how kids actually learn best. French has quickly gone from a subject to practice into something my daughter genuinely looks forward to every week. If you are looking for a patient, skilled, and inspiring language teacher, I cannot recommend Christine highly enough!

Christine is a wonderful tutor! She is personable and encouraging, and always comes prepared with structured lessons. Lessons have been a good mix of vocab, grammar, and practical phrases. I appreciate how she keeps me honest with my pronunciation—correcting me in a supportive way that helps me improve without ever feeling discouraged. I’m making steady progress with her guidance and would highly recommend Christine to anyone learning French!
