Hello š! Iām a tech-savvy, jazz-loving polyglot (English/French/Spanish/Haitian Creole) who teaches languages *through* cultureānot just grammar. Specialize in making idioms, proverbs, and geeky topics (AI, docs, music) your fluency superpowers. My 7+ yearsā secret? Lessons feel like swapping stories with a friendācomplete with terrible jokes (Iāve got 100+). Message me if you want to learn *alive* languages, not textbooks. Letās begin! šŗ
⨠Lesson Format & Tools
I usually teach via the italki classroom but can also use Skype, Google Meet, Zoom, or any platform you prefer. Iām flexible to make your learning experience easy and enjoyable.
š£ļø What We Focus On
Lessons emphasize:
⢠Conversational and Pronunciation fluency
