(P.S. I travel often - time zones and availabilities may vary)Me as a Teacher
I'm a certified special need educator
I have a "human approach". I like to connect with people and create a bond with them
I know how to adapt and adjust my teaching skills
I make sure to offer the students what they need and give them a realistic way of achieving their goalsMy lessons & teaching style
I believe that the best way to learn a new language is first to be comfortable with the teacher, have a great connection & be physically & mentally available. Success comes with time. Allow yourself to make mistakes.
In my lessons :
✻ I want you be yourself, feel confortable, allow yourself to make mistakes. We want improvement. Not perfection :)
✻ I have plenty of activities to propose. You do not have to come prepared unless you want to do something specific.
✻ I do not have a "structure". We go with the flow and do what you're in the mood for. I'll be there to support and guide you.My teaching material

Vanessa is a genuinely fantastic French instructor. We've been working together for a month or two now and I look forward to our conversations every week; they are always intriguing, varied, and fun. Her language is perfectly graded for my level and she knows when to support me when I falter. I feel like my French gets better with every session. I couldn't recommend her more if you're looking to improve your French.

Vanessa is terrific! My french is horrible, but she is patient and does her best to understand me. She offers simple ways to get my point across and helps me to feel more confident in my ability to communicate. I would recommend her to everyone! She is a GREAT teacher!

I wanted to practice some French before my trip and Vanessa was very friendly and asked a lot of questions! Thanks for your help.

I chat with Vanessa 2-3 times per week and it has been SO helpful in developing my conversational skills. She’s so kind and has a great sense of humor which makes her easy to talk to.
