About Me
italki teacher since Nov 6, 2018Me as a Teacher
I'm a certified Neurolanguage Coach and also a cetified ESL Teacher but at the moment I'm focusing on French. I'd like to help you progress and explain the fundamentals and nuances of this beautiful language and allow you to become a confident speaker!
I've studied 2 languages at school and currently studying more (Spanish, Japanese, Arabic) so I'm familiar with the learning process and I help my students find the path that works best for them. I'm very patient and curious about many topics. I like to keep the lessons relaxed and productive.
I encourage you to speak as much as you can!
I've helped many students prepare for the DELF, DALF, TEF, TCF.My lessons & teaching style
Note for complete beginners: I only offer Coaching sessions for you but no test prep.
Here are the fundamentals of the Neurolanguage Coaching approach.
> I'll help you find the spark that will keep you motivated throughout the learning process and together we'll set goals for you to improve your fluency and grammar.
> I'm not following a textbook or teach grammar lessons but we'll talk about grammar for you to understand how the language works so that you'll be able to understand it and, ultimately, speak it in a natural way.
> We'll find ways that work for you to practice in between lessons.
> My lessons are highly flexible and personalized according to your needs.My teaching material

Nous avons pratiqué sur différents sujets du tef, et après quelques cours, je me sens beaucoup plus à l'aise qu'avant. Cathy m'a beaucoup aidé par rapport à comprendre les critères de l'examen, à travailler ensemble sur les sujets que je trouve difficiles, et le plus important, à m'expliquer mes faiblesses à propos de la langue et aussi mes points forts. Pour les élèves qui se préparent pour un examen de Français, vous vous trompez pas si vous prenez des cours avec elle. Merci beaucoup Cathy!

Another good lesson! I have found my lessons with Cathy so far to be very beneficial. She is always patient and friendly and picks discussion materials that are interesting and well suited to my level.

Comme toujours, merci pour une bonne leçon! On a corrigé et discuté ensemble un texte que j'avais rédigé, et c'était vraiment bénéfique de voir plusieurs subtilités de la grammaire et du vocabulaire qui m'avaient échappé.

Great class! I learned several useful slang terms that I regularly encounter when trying to make sense of YouTube videos. Thanks Catherine!

Cathy answered a bunch of my random questions that I’ve compiled over the last few months. We discussed films, videos, and series that I’ve watched and she provided some additional recommendations. It was fun and helpful!
