Personal Description:

Hello! I’m a bilingual French tutor with a Master’s degree in Translation Studies and over ten years of experience working with language professionally. I specialize in helping middle and high school students feel more confident with French grammar, vocabulary, reading, and writing.

My approach is patient, supportive, and customized to each learner’s pace and goals. Whether you’re preparing for a test, catching up on past material, or simply want to improve your fluency, I aim to make every session practical, clear, and encouraging.

What I love most about tutoring is seeing students grow in their skills and self-confidence. I enjoy making French less intimidating and more accessible, one step at a time.

Tutoring Experience:

I have over 10 years of professional experience working with language, including translation, editing, and one-on-one tutoring. I’ve previously tutored a Grade 8 student in French to help her prepare for private school admissions, focusing on grammar, reading comprehension, and writing skills. More recently, I provided online French tutoring to an adult learner looking to improve conversational fluency and confidence.

While I am not a certified teacher, my academic background (Master’s degree in Translation Studies) and real-world language expertise allow me to explain French concepts clearly and adapt lessons to a variety of learning needs. I bring patience, structure, and encouragement to every session to help students feel supported and successful.

Tutoring Approach:

My tutoring approach is tailored, encouraging, and focused on building confidence. I begin by identifying the student’s goals, challenges, and learning style so that each lesson can be personalized and purposeful. I use a mix of review, real-life examples, and guided practice to help students develop both understanding and independence.

I aim to create a supportive space where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes — because that’s how real learning happens. Whether the focus is on grammar, reading, writing, or conversational skills, I always explain concepts in clear, accessible terms and at the student’s pace.

My goal is to help learners feel more capable and less intimidated by French, and to celebrate progress in every session.
