Hi! I'm Axelle, a native speaker of Spanish, French, and English with 15+ years of teaching experience. I hold an MA in Translation & Localization Management and taught Spanish at the college level for six years in California. I also worked for Berlitz in Brussels teaching total immersion classes. What makes me different? I'm a language learner too! I started learning Bulgarian on italki two years ago, so I truly understand your challenges. I'm passionate about helping students build confidence and achieve their language goals! I'm patient, encouraging, and experienced. I taught Spanish in College for six years with a 95% pass rate. I also specialized in one-on-one total immersion teaching styles and I used to teach highschoolers in California. My approach: we speak from day one. I adapt every lesson to your goals—travel, work, exams, or conversation. I explain grammar clearly and create a comfortable environment where mistakes are welcome. I understand learner struggles because I'm learning Bulgarian on italki myself! Every technique we will use together I have tried it myself. My lessons are personalized, conversational, and focused on you. We speak only in the target language from the first lesson, using real materials and topics you care about. I use the total immersion method but adjust to your level and comfort. Whether you need grammar help, conversation practice, exam prep, or Spanish for work, I'll tailor lessons to your goals. Most importantly we use all resources ...
