Claire

I have a degree in Sociology, and I am currently doing a degree in art history. French is my mother tongue, but I have been living in England for four years now and for three years in Asia before that. I have tutored children in both French and English when helping them with their homework. I have been a nanny for a bilingual family as well, where I took care of a little girl and brought her to her various after-school activities but also helped her do her homework in both English and French. I know everyone has their own pace when it comes to learning, and I always try to adapt myself as much as I can to the needs of the student so that they can have the best experience possible.

Language lessons are based on conversation and learning how to express ideas clearly. As a matter of fact, I like to use a topic that interests the student as a starting point for the conversation. Writing and reading skills are also practiced using the same topic to make the experience of learning more enjoyable.

I can also focus on more academic skills if needed and help to understand and revise specific points in the school lessons.

French can indeed be off-putting, especially for English speakers, but I believe French has much more beauty yet to be revealed to the world.

I am not afraid of a challenge and will try my best to make you love "la langue de Molière."
