Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 11 May 2015Interest topicScienceReizenFood
After graduating, I worked for five years as a psychologist in Paris, before deciding to move abroad. I took on a complete language teaching course because I wanted to be able to work in any country in the world, and I loved it. I got so interested in how to best teach a language that I read all I could find about it, and tried a wide range of methods. I worked in language schools in London, Buenos Aires and Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and ended up creating my own school. In 2015 I started with online lessons on italki and have dedicated myself to it since then, exploring all the potential of distance learning.Ik als leerkracht
Most students I meet on italki look for an online teacher because they want to be able to actually speak French, and not just “learn things about the French language”. My view is that when teaching a language, speaking should always have the highest priority. I know that eventually my students want to learn French to engage in meaningful conversations and enjoy doing it. And I know that for that, they need a pronunciation that people will praise them for, they need to say things the right way (which means using the right grammar and syntax), overall they need to feel confident about their French, and they need a lot of speaking practice.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
“Learning to Speak, Speaking to Learn”: I love this slogan because it says a lot about my teaching approach. I know that reading and writing are useful, and important, but they’re best worked on once we’ve already gained some confidence in speaking. In a lesson, one of my main jobs is to provide useful feedback. It doesn’t mean simply reformulating a sentence or correcting something you can rectify yourself. It’s about helping to develop criteria, so you can learn how to use the right structure and the right words at the right time. Through this process, French needs to feel clear and natural to you, the same way your first language does.Mijn lesmateriaal

I started with Cedric as a complete beginner in French. I was looking for a teacher that would be extremely picky with pronunciation and Cedric truly delivers. He constantly gives me feedback on anything I mispronounce or if my intonation is off.
Learning with Cedric’s special method (Silent Way/Pronunciation Science) eliminates the usual guesswork involved with simply listening to and imitating audio. I've even been able to apply what I’ve learned about pronunciation with him to improve my German.
Cedric is really patient. For example, it took 5 lessons before I was proficient with the French R and he kept working on it with me and giving me feedback and resources. I feel comfortable and have fun at our lessons. Cedric is positive and encouraging when giving feedback and teaching; I leave our lessons excited about what I’ve learned. Cedric quickly answers my questions and reviews my notes outside of class. I look forward to progressing more in the French language with Cedric.

Cedric is one of the best teachers I've ever had. He knows a lot about pedagogy and he is a specialist in innovative teaching frameworks that will guarantee you will be fluent in french in the fastest way possible. I literally was speaking french in about three months and many native french speakers were surprised by my pronunciation.
If you are serious about learning french do not doubt hiring Cedric. You wont regret it.
