Professional teacher, French, very experienced and very serious, I offer private lessons and tutoring at a distance (by Zoom or Skype) or face-to-face (Luxembourg-city and surroundings) in French for primary school and school secondary (French, history, geography), as well as French as a foreign language (FLE) courses for children and adults.

I am always very attentive to the pupil or the student I have in front of me, his characteristics and his specificities, I thus adapt to the pupil in order to be as efficient as possible, that either in tutoring classes or in French as a foreign language classes.

I therefore try to adapt as best as possible the methodology of the courses and the teaching aids used to the different students and their particularities, as my background shows: in total I have completed 26 years of teaching (higher education, secondary education, private lessons) to all kinds of audiences, in all kinds of conditions, and in 4 different countries: France, Luxembourg, Russia, Lithuania.

I have in fact taught French middle and high school students; students from the Luxembourg school systems, from the European Schools in Luxembourg; to French, Lithuanian, Russian students...; to Lithuanian French teachers; to adults of different nationalities learning French in Luxembourg, etc.

During the ten years of private lessons in Luxembourg, I carried out different types of lessons and activities:
- courses in history, geography, French (primary and secondary schools), French for adults (FLE: French as a foreign language),
- preparation for the French bac: French 2nd and 1st year classes (French literature),
- supervision of a student enrolled in history-geography at the CNED (National Center for Distance Studies, France),
- preparation for the French tests for the entrance exams to the Luxembourg civil service (summaries, discussions, method of the dissertation),
- supervision of a summary test in French for a business school competition,
- proofreading and correction of dissertations in French (higher education), etc.

Who ? I am 51 years old and have been a French teacher for 27 years in French-speaking secondary education in Belgium. For three years now, I have decided to follow the entrepreneurial path by offering freelance courses. With hindsight today, I regret not having done it sooner as the exchange with new people, young and old, French-speaking or not, is particularly enriching.
What? I offer French or FLE courses based on multiple sources and I renew them regularly because it is important to be in adequacy with the current society.
Or ? I go to the learner's home where we decide to do the course online.
When? I work at the Belgian-Luxembourg border and I go to Luxembourg 4 to 5 times a week, usually at the beginning or end of the afternoon. I am also available on weekends.
