About Me

As a student of translation and interpretation, language learning has been my passion for years, and teaching has been my passion since childhood!
I offer French and English language courses mainly, although Dutch is a possibility if the student has an A1-A2 level and is experiencing difficulties.
I approach language learning in a way that is both fun and academic, thus mobilizing all the best assets to overcome the difficulties that one can encounter when learning a language.

Education

I will soon obtain my bachelor's degree (in 2027) in English-Mandarin translation and interpretation. I am already qualified as a teacher through my experience as a professor, tutor, and mentor.

The course will allow a beginner to learn the basics of the language, to know how to communicate in English, to understand its grammar, etc.

Simple translation exercises are used to help students transition between their native language and the target language, enabling them to think in the latter. The course is structured around grammar lessons, analysis of specialized texts, speaking and listening comprehension, and writing.

FLE teacher graduated from the Alliance française Bruxelles-Europe. I taught in Laos (1 year in a local school) in Peru (1 year in a college and in a French alliance), in Moscow (2 years in a private language school), in Brussels (6 month in an association that delivers courses to newcomers and the F9 for private and group lessons at the ULB).
The type of teaching that I favor is based on active pedagogy, constant interaction of the learner with his teacher and his environment, a cultural exchange and a clear and precise understanding of the objectives to be achieved.
To apply this practice I use a lot: authentic documents (radio and TV programs, articles, reports, songs, testimonials, ...), the role play (theatrical exercises), games are a founding element of my teaching (playful and recreational approach of the language), the debates (the experience and the personal history being the raw material to animate them), reading (books and comics: phonetics), the grammatical exercises in adequacy with the theme ( didactics of FLE and grammatical methodology)

I aim my lesson at Dutch speakers who want to learn French, who have difficulties with it at school, or who simply want to refine their conversation skills.
French is my native language, and I have studied Latin and Greek, which gave me a deeper understanding of French grammar and language.

Xin chào!

My class will not only be the textbook-reading and cassettes-listening type of course. Learning Vietnamese with me will be exciting, active, with lots of activities and quiz to help you memorize and apply what you learn in class in common daily situation. Not only will you learn a new language to impress your Vietnamese friends or partners, but you can also gain some insights about the people, history, customs, traditions, mindset and market...

Whether you’re an absolute beginner or already possess near-native fluency, I have courses in different level that will suit you, from introductory, beginner,... to intermediate, advance. Contact me to schedule an exam, or just a chat so I know your expectation, and speak Vietnamese in no time!

The class will be taught in English, French and also Dutch!

I can offer conversation classes at very different levels, from informal discussions with idiomatic expressions to business negotiation dialogues.

As for the pronunciation of French, it is a real challenge because written French is often very different from its articulation.

The verbo-tonal method that I use, and which is often used by speech therapists, is particularly suitable for correcting French pronunciation for those of you who are not native French speakers, but also for native French speakers who wish to get rid of an accent.

We will work on the sounds of the language integrated into the sentence, the rhythm, the intonation and considered as a living and evolving system.

This method is very effective. You will see your progress very quickly and your self-confidence will allow you to overcome any reluctance you may have had before to express yourself in public. For others, having a more neutral pronunciation in French can be a significant asset professionally.

Hello to all of you!
I welcome you to my profile.
You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French.
Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning.
Hence my presence on this site.
My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French.
To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges.
I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours.
This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible!
It's all in your favor!
Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.

Bonjour!

My name is Anastasia, I am a 24 years old French native and I am here to help you improve your French skills. I have been teaching students of various levels from all around the world for over 5 years. I have helped students prepare for French exams like the DELF, as well as those who are planning to move to a French-speaking country and need real-life language skills.

I understand the challenges of learning a language, having learned two languages myself: English and Portuguese, and plan to learn more. I have faced difficulties, hit walls, and overcome them, and I believe that my experience as a language learner makes me a well-rounded teacher. However, I do not claim to know everything about teaching, as I am constantly learning.

I tailor my teaching method to best suit the needs of my students. I use interactive resources such as images, videos, and texts to help my students learn effectively.

For beginners, I recommend trying out the Pimsleur method, which is a 30-minute audio lesson based on gradual interval recall. This method reviews learned vocabulary at increasingly longer intervals and has been used by the CIA. If you are interested, we can discuss how to use this method together.

I offer French lessons remotely through Skype, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams or at the students place. When the lesson is online, I use a platform that allows us to see and modify documents, images, and videos in real-time, which is very useful.

I would be happy to help you on your French learning journey.

Studying a language is not just about memorizing lists of verbs, it is above all about being able to express oneself with confidence.
My approach is simple: clarity and practical application are my priorities. Whether it's for French (FLE), Spanish, or Italian, we'll work on what truly matters to you.
Zero blockage: We practice speaking from the beginning so that speaking becomes natural.
Current content: We use a variety of media (videos, articles, podcasts) to understand the language as it is spoken today.
School effectiveness: For students, we go straight to the essential points to unlock understanding.

My approach for our first meeting:
The first session is dedicated to your goals and interests. I like to build my lessons around your passions: this allows us to work on specific vocabulary and conversation topics that truly motivate you. A lesson tailored to you is a lesson where progress is faster.

When do we start?
