Hi ! My name is Thibaud, which actually sounds like "Teebo"
I am a passionate traveler, especially for the amazing people and sceneries I discover along the way. I love to learn about the culture and passions of the people I meet. I will always find a topic you enjoy talking about !
I have been teaching french and English for two years as a volunteer teacher, and that was an amazing experience.
It led me on this facinating journey to become a professional teacher in French as a foreign language.
Me as a Teacher
I always focus on my student’s goals : I don’t teach the same topics nor the same way to people looking for tourism survival, academic improvement, long term expatriation or business interactions.
From my knowledge in Cognitive Sciences, I learned that the brain is at his best when stimulated in a pleasant way. Therefore, I’ll always make my lessons as cheerful and interesting as possible !
My lessons & teaching style
The first lesson will be about assessing your current level and understanding your reasons for learning French, so I can adapt my lessons. I’ll also focus on finding which way of learning suits you best and what kind of material you like the most (pictures, articles, games, videos, songs,...)
Then we can make a plan for acquiring the language tools you’ll need the most. Is it grammar and conjugaison ? Or maybe more about vocabulary and pronunciation ? Most probably a tailored mix of all those skills !
I can also give you homeworks in between sessions, like writing comments about an image or some classical exercises. That’s up to you of course !

Thibaud est très sympathique et motivant. Les cours avec lui sont amusants et à la fin, j'ai une liste d'expressions à apprendre et à pratiquer pour continuer à m'améliorer. J'attends avec impatience le prochain cours.

Thibaud has an adventurous and positive spirit which makes him easy to talk to. I find his feedback method ideal, because he offers correction without interrupting communication. His approach is very helpful in reducing speaking anxiety. I am convinced that a relaxed communication-based approach is what all language learners need to turn off their ¨inner critic¨ and begin speaking fluently.

WOW! Tuve una lección agradable y muy enriquecedora con Thibaud. Es un profesor motivante y apasionado por la enseñanza. Destaco especialmente su sistema de correcciones, ya que te corrige y te explica tus errores sin que se corte el flujo de la conversación. Realmente lo recomiendo. 10/10

Thibaud is a fantastic tutor. He breaks down the concepts, makes the classed fun. Really tailors each lesson to what I need as a student. Excellent!
