About Me
italki teacher since May 10, 2021
I am from the South West of France. I am currently living in sunny Lisbon, Portugal.
I am a serious and hilarious teacher at the same time.
Through working with Italki, l feel l have enhanced my teaching ability. I have also developed my communication skills, and l am now able to showcase strong skills in clear communication, adaptability and flexibility, and in promoting the love of learning my language.
As a teacher, I will create discussions for my students, where they can put their knowledge into practice, develop their own views on classroom content, and consolidate what they’ve learned.
I will be delighted to have you as my students anytime you want.
Me as a Teacher
I teach from beginner to advanced, and I am good at teaching all age ranges, from 6 - 50+ years old! I look forward to meeting you.
My goal as a teacher is to improve my student’s education and help them grow knowledgably. I like to see students at different levels develop with each other and learn. I want to challenge the students and watch them grow to their highest level of education. Therefore, having the students interacting with me is the best educational strategy. I want my students to have freedom with whatever creativity they want, and to allow them to express themselves at any time. With this freedom, my students will be able to develop some strong communication skills.
My lessons & teaching style
I am a native French speaker and therefore all words and expressions come naturally to me. Although I am not a native speaker of the English language, and despite my French twang, I speak English perfectly.
I have experience in preparing for DEFL diplomas (levels B1 and B2) and in preparing for the First Certificate.
Please join my class and seize the opportunity to learn one of the most beautiful languages in the world with an amazing teacher. There is no doubt in my mind that you will be making some quick progress within months. Learning languages is a long process, but l will try my upmost to teach you French in 3 -4 months. With me, you should be able to get to the level B1/B2.

Just fantastic, he really goes above and beyond to help, he's patient and he's just fun to talk with. I'm only two lessons in and I feel my listening comprehension is much better! I'm looking forward to future lessons.

François makes learning French fun! I not only enjoy the lessons, but am learning a lot. He is very professional, but friendly and personable. If you are a beginner like me, don't worry. He speaks fluent English. He plans his lessons well, but is also flexible if there is something specific you want to work on. Highly recommended. 😊

Francois is patient and takes time to explain concepts very well. (These lessons help me stay motivated as I work toward my language learning goals.) I appreciate the discussions we have in regard to culture, current events, et cetera.

He had issues with his laptop, but still extended the time to an hour to compensate for it. Had a fruitful discussion.
