About Me
italki teacher since Nov 10, 2011
Interest topicPets & AnimalsTravelFood
I'm looking for students with a good grasps of the basics who want to achieve fluency (B2 or over in TEFAQ / TCFQ )
Besides exam practice, I like to talk about travels, food, films, gardening, the weather and all the little things in between.
If you are still a beginner, it's probably too early to start with me. I would advice reading my book, The No Nonsense French Guide.
Me as a Teacher
I didn't train to be a teacher - my background is in Laws and Arts - but I've been coaching French learners since 2011.
Author of the The No Nonsense French Guide, L'Égypte Antique au féminin/Did you know about Female Pharaohs in Ancient Egypt? and Cool! Les rayons X / X-Rays are Cool
My lessons & teaching style
I do informal lessons. We talk and I correct on the spot (verbally and I type the corrections for further references). I probably won't correct everything as this can become annoying, I tend to focus on the bigger issues. I may suggest reading material & exercises after the lesson. For TEFAQ practices, I have mock ups tests to practice oral expression. For TCFQ, I have a list of questions. I may use this list of questions even if you don't plan to pass the test as they are a good way to make people talk on a large range of subject.
J’aime avoir une leçon avec Caroline! Ça c’est ma source unique pour toutes nouvelles à connaître! Merci encore :)
