I'm kind and curious.
I like meeting people from different countries. I've been myself a foreign languages learner for a long time so I'm very familiar with this journey.
I worked a decade in the hospitality industry, mainly in the concierge/guest service department in France, England, Argentina and Australia before turning into a french teacher because it means a lot to me to guide foreigners to learn my mother tongue and help them attaining their goals (cultural, pro, expatriation) and express their full potential. I trained through the Alliance Française school.
I also have interests in different topics (reading, language learning, philosophy, traveling),
I practice swimming and tennis.
As a teacher, I am completely involved and dedicated in my student's learning path. I strive for concrete and practical results. I make it a point of honor to create a warm and relaxing atmosphere in my lessons. We always learn better in an enjoyable setting, right ?
I also try to get to know my students as best as I can so that I can provide lessons matching to their expectations.
I am patient, supportive and I give regular feedback with the aim of improving your french-language skills. Besides, as a language learner myself, I'd give you some relevant tips about the learning.
There is no rule of thumb when it comes to teaching as it highly depends on the teacher and on the learner.
However, you can be sure that in my lessons, the atmosphere is relaxed, engaging and you'll learn a lot of ...

Valentin is awesome! I've been doing weekly lessons with him for the last two years, and my French has improved phenomenally during this time. He's a very kind and patient teacher, tailors the lessons to my needs and interests (I'm a musician that travels to France for work and sometimes need to learn specialized vocabulary etc), and he is always happy to answer questions or provide further explanation when a concept eludes me. Truly one of the best teachers I've ever studied with, in any subject. I highly recommend him!

I already had more than 50 lessons with Valentin and he is the best teacher I have ever had!
He is very organized, helpful, knowledgeable, patient, responsible and overall good person. I cannot recommend him more!

Parler avec Valentin est comme un bol d’air frais. On se retrouve souvent subjugué par les grands débats philosophiques et les questions complexes. Il me donne toujours l’opportunité de mieux exprimer mon avis et mes arguments alors qu’il reste vraiment détendu et prévenant. Mes conversations avec lui sont les meilleurs moments de commencer ma journée !

Valentin is the best. After almost 150 lessons over the past year, my french has improved dramatically. Thanks to his help and guidance. Valentin is thoughtful and patient. He can discuss any topic and he is passionate about teaching. He continues to be an exceptional partner on the journey of learning a new language.

J’ai énormément profité pendant ma leçon avec Valentin aujourd’hui. Je lui ai raconté mes vacances et décrit quelques photos. Compte tenu des circonstances, c’était difficile et édifiant en même temps. Il était tellement patient et attentionné, comme d’habitude, ce qui m’a beaucoup aidé en décrivant les moments et les choses vraiment spécifiques de chaque photo.

Parler avec Valentin est comme parler avec un ami. Peu importe le sujet, on se retrouve dans des discussions très enrichissantes et captivantes. Il m’améliore gommer des erreurs et me présente des nouvelles expressions idiomatiques pour mieux exprimer mes pensées. J’ai hâte de chaque conversation avec lui. C’est un vrai plaisir !
