French for business. Fun, tailored for you!

Advert description
I hold a business degree from Kedge, one of the top tier French business schools. I worked for 20 years as a specialist translator and interpreter (English into French) and a business owner in the UK.

From business, finance and automotive to CT scanners or international development, I have probably dealt with your industry before.

The USP: my courses are focused on you. Your specific needs. No run-of-the-mill stuff.

I will research your specific industry, get au fait with trends and latest news, find the recent and relevant terminology and then... we will have fun discussing in French and learning.

People like my progressive approach to teaching: is it "le table" or "la table"? Not that it does not matter, but I am not going to correct you if you call a table a "he" (table is a good friend, she does not mind). Learning French must be joyful and I refuse to see my students getting disheartened when too many difficulties are piled up. Your French will refine itself over time, without straining your memory.

I also use a lot of recent video clips relating to your industry: this helps you get accustomed to different speakers, accents. This helps you become autonomous.

I also like teaching a few recent slang words that will make your French-speaking colleagues raise an appreciative eyebrow.

Let's equip you with a functional toolbox and have fun while doing so. At the end of a session, your brain should be on overdrive, but I'd like you to also have a big grin on your face.

Jean-Louis's lessons were great - not only does he have the patience of a saint, but the lessons were tailored around my specific interests, rather than learning from an outdated textbook. I feel more confident talking about my job, sustainability, travel and current affairs. Jean-Louis is very encouraging and amiable, making for a comfortable learning environment, even over Zoom.
