French as a foreign language to connect, negotiate, persuade. . . in professional and personal settings
From 43.31 C$ /h
Learning French can transform the way you work (and even become a boost to your career), travel, study, or simply understand the world.
For professionals, French is much more than just a valuable addition to a CV: it's a strategic skill. It allows them to participate effectively in meetings, defend an idea, persuade a partner, or clarify a decision in a French-speaking environment. It's not just about speaking well, but about being understood clearly and precisely, acting confidently, and demonstrating authority.
For travelers, French becomes a practical tool, useful for finding your way around, asking questions, negotiating, understanding, resolving unforeseen problems, and enjoying travel with complete autonomy.
For students, the language opens doors to schools and universities, and provides access to internships and scholarships. Understanding French culture offers the possibility of an enriching academic experience.
For enthusiasts, French can be an intellectual and cultural delight. The language of Molière allows one to refine thought, express ideas with subtlety, and discover a rich, demanding, and profoundly open culture.
My approach is tailored to each individual. I like to work from real-life situations, with personalized support, avoiding disconnected courses or exercises that are sometimes not very useful. The goal is simple: for French to become a tool that best serves each student's expectations and goals. Furthermore, I consider building confidence essential (French isn't always an easy language to learn).

About Me
I help my students not only to speak or write, but also to decide, arbitrate, and persuade in French.
I work with professionals who already have an intermediate level of French but want to feel confident in management meetings, negotiations, decision-making, multicultural governance, as well as in presentations or business development. These are professionals for whom French is a strategic challenge.
In international settings, French is not just a communication tool. It is a lever for credibility, authority, and leadership.
This is not about "learning the language", but about thinking and acting in French with clarity and impact.
What I do:
I design custom-made accompaniments,
designed for leaders who work under pressure, with time constraints and high human stakes.
- Decision-oriented, non-academic French
- Real-life situations, not standard exercises
- Strategic, human and demanding approach
It is aimed at
Executives and C-level managers in international contexts
Managers who lead teams or projects in French
Controls exposed to French-speaking clients or partners (France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, French-speaking Africa)
Intermediate to advanced level
I am French, a former businessman and a university professor.
Since 2017, I have used French as a tool for professional and personal development and growth.
Connecting is so exciting.+ 20 years teaching, first to university students in France, now (since 2017) to professionals and enthusiasts who want to speak French as a foreign language.

Some recommendations:
- Sandra, commercial manager in the pharmaceutical industry, Colombia. - "I loved the classes, especially thanks to the teaching style."
- Claudia Maria, Service Director in the pharmaceutical industry, Colombia. - "The classes were very good; the teacher adapts to the student's needs. I mainly enjoyed that it was a fun space; we laughed a lot. It helped me remember the language, I learned expressions, and I gained confidence."
- Donald and Yeimmy, Colombians with the dream of living in Canada. - "The classes were great. They studied real-life situations in a didactic way, starting easy and gradually increasing the difficulty. The grammar is complicated, but the teacher always explained it very well."
- Jose, banking sector manager, Spain - "The classes are very practical and dynamic. What I liked most was being able to apply what you were teaching me to conversations about real topics that we had during the class. I really improved my speaking skills a lot."
