Hello!
My name is Regina and I'm originally from San Francisco, California. My native language is of course English and I'm fluent in French. I began learning French in high school and later in college I had the chance to study abroad in the south of France where I had a very hands-on experience in practicing the language skills I already had in a more day-to-day setting. After my time abroad I returned to California and received my BA in Comparative and World literature with a focused interest in French Literature and Poetry.
I currently live in the south of France and I really enjoy talking and the chance to exchange experiences through language learning!

Me as a Teacher
As an instructor, I have experience working professionally at an "ecole maternelle" or pre-school in San Francisco which was Franco-American, meaning I taught in both English and French with children fluent or who were gaining fluency,as well as French-speaking parents. I've earned credits from the University of Los Angeles in early child education and development, so I am very comfortable working with younger students. I have also given English lessons during my time in France, working with native French speakers in a conversational setting to help the pupils develop recognition and improve pronunciation as well as developing technical language skills for their workplace or university.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are based around the interests and needs of the students. For example, working with a business student recently, I sectioned off parts of her assigned text which we were able to review in detail and I supplemented the lessons with articles found online relating to American and global businesses. I create slideshows and presentations for the pupils as well so that in between lessons/sessions, they can have something concrete and familiar to return to. Additionally, I find that conversation and listening activities are crucial to the language learning process, and this has been something which helped enormously when I first began learning French.
