About
I am comfortable helping you with all levels and all aspects of French: if you need help writing, speaking, with grammar, with your accent... you name it, I got it!
I am fluent in French and studied this year at the university level in Paris. However, I learned French as a second language when I was a child, and am thus well-equipped to help teach the strategies that make complicted linguistic rules easier to understand (le français en a beaucoup !).
I am happy to help you with work for a class you may be taking, or with generating personalized lessons to maximize your experience.
A good teacher makes all the difference when it comes to languages, and I know that together we will learn a lot and have a fun time.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I talk with the student so we can better understand their level of French so that the lessons can be as useful as possible. I ask them if they want to focus on any specific area (verb tenses, speaking, reading comprehension, etc.), or if they are looking for more mixed lessons.
I always try to keep a lighthearted attitude to make even tedious grammar like the plus-que-parfait more fun.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I started learning French at age 5 (in Kindergarten), and have kept learning French throughout my schooling. I attend university in Montreal, and spent this past year studying in Paris.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students between the ages of 13 and 55.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Don't be afraid to make mistakes when you are speaking or writing. It's all part of the process.
