About Me
italki teacher since Nov 10, 2011InterestsFoodReadingFilms & TV SeriesTravelPets & Animals
Bonjour ! Je cherche des étudiants de niveau intermédiaire (B1 et B2) qui désirent améliorer leur fluidité, développer leur vocabulaire et corriger leurs erreurs de grammaire. J'offre également de l'aide avec les examens TEF/TEFaQ/TCFQ.
I'm looking for intermediate students who want to achieve fluency.
Besides exam practice (TEFAQ / TCFQ ), I like to talk about news, travels, food, films, gardening, the weather and all the little things in between.
*If you are still a beginner*, it's probably too early to start with me. I would advice reading my book, The No Nonsense French Guide first, have some practice with professional teacher and come back to me in 6 months.Me as a Teacher
I didn't train to be a teacher - my background is in Laws and Arts - but I've been coaching French learners since 2011.

- Cool! L'évolution / Evolution is cool My lessons & teaching style
I do informal lessons. We talk and I correct on the spot (verbally and I type the corrections for further references). I probably won't correct everything as this can become annoying, I tend to focus on the bigger issues. I may suggest reading material & exercises after the lesson. For TEFAQ practices, I have mock ups tests to practice oral expression. For TCFQ, I have a list of questions. I may use this list of questions even if you don't plan to pass the test as they are a good way to make people talk on a large range of subject.My teaching material

Caroline a toujours des nouvelles et sujets intéressants à aborder ce qui rend les cours avec elle amusants. Je prends des cours avec elle depuis un peu plus de trois ans and je la recommende vivement.

C’était une leçon productive avec Caroline. On a papoté sur le bouffe et l’actualité. Ça fait un mois que je n’ai parlé pas le français, mais ça fait du bien! Elle a corrigé toutes mes erreurs et m’a appris pas mal de choses. Je vous conseille d’avoir une leçon avec elle!

Les leçons avec Caroline sont toujours amusantes et éducatives. J’ai l’impression que je parle à une amie que je connais depuis des années! Avec elle, c’est toujours un bon mélange de sujets; elle me corrige mais sans me faire sentir « pénalisé » ou « gêné »
J’ai commencé mes leçons avec elle quelques mois avant de passer le TCF Canada, et après l’avoir passé, j’ai eu C1!!
Je la recommande 100%, et bon courage!

I take conversation lessons with Caroline. She gives great feedback during our chats. And she is always very well prepared even before the class starts; up to speed with our previous chats and ready to go with new topics; that makes things so much easier!

My 1st class with Caroline & it was wonderful! She was absolutely detailed with how to perfect my French & provided me tips on how to pronounce & use words correctly. She also presented a strong familiarity with the TCF exam structure by the way she guided me through the practice. 100% recommend :D
