Greetings to all prospective students. I am Oarine, a linguist and French as a Foreign Language (FLE) specialist with over 15 years of teaching experience, including instruction at an internationally renowned French institution. Holding a linguistics degree from the University of Toulouse with additional studies in art history and cinema, I bring an interdisciplinary approach to language education. As a native of Brazil now residing in my home country, I leverage comparative linguistics methodologies to create dynamic, culturally enriched lessons. My pedagogical approach emphasizes active language comparison, a technique refined through both academic training and personal experience as a polMe as a Teacher
I try to understand the student's rhythm. Years of teaching have shown me that simply applying a methodology where the student himself deduces the grammar of the target language, does not always work. I still find students who ask me for verb lists to be read and memorized! Therefore, I try to mix the current methodology, where the student, little by little, deduces, feeling the internal rule of the language, as well as a little repetition and exercises for the crystallization of the contents. I had experience with different ages, however, lately, I have been teaching more to an Asian audience, which made me rethink all teaching methods used until then.My lessons & teaching style
I try my best to make the student use his active ability to speak. Passive reading and listening skills, which are essential - especially listening - are worked on with some exercises that are done by students, at home. With the new media it became much easier to bring to the classroom, for example, series from France.
I confess that the teaching material for teaching Brazilian Portuguese is still deficient, which makes the teacher work a little bit more...tricky.My teaching material

Prof Oarine is the best teacher of French I have found. He is patient, speaks clearly and makes the lessons lots of fun. I'm looking forward to my next lesson.

Some days when I'm struggling extra hard, like today, Oarine made me feel extremely comfortable and adapted on the fly, making sure I once again got the very best from my time with him!

I get a ton of value out of my time with Oarine. He’s always so prepared, we cover a variety of topics including casual conversation to start, and he offers a ton of support to continue learning and contacting him even when not in a class session.
