Hello š!
Iām a polyglot tutor (English, French, Spanish, Haitian Creole) with 7+ years of helping learners speak confidently *and* culturally. Whether youāre into tech, jazz, or global documentaries, letās turn your interests into fluent conversations, with a side of terrible jokes (I collect them!).
My secret? Languages thrive when theyāre alive: through idioms, proverbs, and stories that stick.
Ready to learn like youāre swapping tales with a friend? Message me, letās begin! šŗ

Leila is an amazing Haitian Creole teacher who really knows how to break things down for beginners. She explains concepts in a clear, simple way that just clicks. What stands out most is how sharp she is ā she instantly catches any little mistakes or language gaps and helps you fix them precisely so you really get it down solid. Her lessons flow smoothly, and she always keeps the energy up. Sheās warm, funny, and brings a real spirit to every session, which makes learning feel natural and alive. At the same time, she pushes you to grow and encourages you every step of the way. I genuinely recommend her to anyone serious about learning Creole ā if you can, take multiple classes a week with her. 10/10, youāll definitely level up fast with Leila.
