About Me
italki teacher since Aug 22, 2019Me as a Teacher
I am passionate about my job and have been developing my teaching material for 10 years now. I love using a wide array of documents and strive to help my students improve the best as possible.
I am a very sporty person and my classes are therefore also very dynamic. I have a master's degree in history and am a huge fan of foreign languages and cultures so will be very happy to explain to you aspects of contemporary France. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are fun and efficient, my students have a good time but achieve their goals in a timely and productive manner as well.
Classes focus on the student's ability to complete real-life tasks (talking about your family / holidays, writing a cv / essay, go for shopping / ask or give directions etc). The grammar always comes second never first, because you learn by using the language to complete every day tasks, not by conjugating verbs without aim.My teaching material

Stéphane is one of the best tutors I've ever worked with on this platform. He breaks down exactly what I'm saying wrong and writes it down so I can review it later.

I've had 5 classes so far (6 counting the 30 minutes trial) and it has been amazing! Stéphane helped me to do a huge improvement, mainly in my righting. We are working towards a B2+ on TEF but as part of my journey I'm also improving a lot my French in general. He helped me to lear new verbs and many rules that I was missing/mistaking. Also, as a TEF Examiner he is giving me valuable tips not only to close my gaps or learn new things, but also how to get an kind of "wow factor" to not leave doubts on evaluators heads. Thanks, Stéphane 5 down and more to come!

J’ai suivi les cours de Stéphane pour la préparation de l’examen pendant un mois et demie.
Un ´merci beaucoup’ ne suffira pas pour exprimer mes joies quand j’ai reçu mes résultats, également mes reconnaissances à Stéphane ! Son professionnalisme, ses expériences riches et sa patience ont été beaucoup appréciées durant mon apprentissage.

Stéphane incarne l'enseignant idéal pour les apprenants en quête d'une analyse claire des défis liés à l'apprentissage. Il convient particulièrement à ceux qui apprécient des conseils directs et subjectifs.
