With a foundation built within multinational corporations, I decided to pursue a Master's in French as a Foreign Language in 2005. This unique combination of corporate expertise and academic knowledge allows me to offer tailor-made training programs that meet the specific needs of learners. I now focus particularly on private lessons, either in person in my dedicated training room or on-site, as well as Skype lessons.
Beyond corporate environments, I offer French courses to adults seeking a general mastery of the language. Customized courses are also available for young foreigners adapting to the French school system, as well as for students and professionals seeking certifications or official diplomas in French.
Staying at the forefront of teaching techniques is crucial. I regularly participate in specialist training in the field of "French as a Foreign Language."
Fluent in English and German, my pedagogical approach focuses on effective communication, transcending language barriers.
My approach aims to develop communication and language skills through task-based activities. After assessing your French level and needs, a personalized training program is developed. Regular progress assessments, aligned with the proposals of the Council of Europe (CEFR), ensure effective learning.
Guiding Principle: "I pay particular attention to each person's unique learning style, helping them identify the most effective strategies to achieve their language goals."
In addition to traditional language methods, I integrate authentic and regularly updated materials such as emails, video broadcasts, movies, and lessons. Written French is studied using documents provided by participants.
Private French Lessons: Flexible and effective, each course is tailored to individual needs and goals. Hours are assessed to achieve the desired mastery level.
Small Group Training (2 to 6 people):

Semi-intensive or intensive courses, from 15 to 40 hours per week, are offered to students wishing to boost their French. A personalized schedule, taking into account linguistic issues and personal interests, is established.
