French fluently - Indonesian Fluently - English Fluently

Whatever your schedule I am happy to be a tutor and buddy to practice speaking fluently. Whatever your level, accent or goal I will give you the time needed to shape and perfect your French. Pronunciation can be practiced from anywhere whether you are commuting, traveling or any activity you may be doing we can multitask as long as you have earphones to hear me and call from a rather quiet place (not the fitness center). For spelling please be in a calm and quiet setting.

All levels are welcome, studious or busy, I will train you like a PT or coach and a friend.

I am native French Indonesian, and I speak with American English fluently. I am a multinational, a traveler l, public speaker, MC and intuitive voice coach entrepreneur. My teaching style is bold and active, modern and interactive.
I particularly enjoy challenging subjects and psychology, and both the casual or the refined art of speaking.

Hi, I'm a native and professional Indonesian language tutor who can help you to improve or master your Indonesian language skills. Through my experience tutoring students across a range of capacities and skill levels, I have honed my communication, creativity, and motivational skills.

I have been teaching Indonesian for the past 5 years both online and offline classes. It taught me how to adapt my teaching style to suit the student’s respective cultural background, social requirements and specific needs. I have the opportunity to teach Indonesian language for both children ranging from 4 years to senior people as much as 30 years. Although there is a great gap in the teaching style that should be used to teach this wide age range, I find it a challenge to match my techniques of teaching Indonesian with the students’ capabilities.

My lesson and teaching style,
I always adjust my teaching methods and materials based on the level and goal. Practical grammar lessons use text document along with the examples. It will help you to practice the grammar rules in natural setting. We don’t have to do writing at whole session, we can discuss or have daily conversation to improve the speaking skill while we’re learning the writing. It will be useful for developing confidence, fluency, and naturalness in speaking. I also create quiz and homework assignment to review the previous lesson.

I am very committed to helping Indonesian language learners learn further about my language according to their needs. I can help you with all the language skills (speaking, listening, reading, and writing), grammar, pronunciation, and also colloquial words. Since language cannot be separated with culture, we will also talk about Indonesian habits and cultures that might be different from yours. If you want, I can teach you not only Indonesian, but as well as a little Javanese, my local language. It will be interesting. You can also practice your Indonesian with me. We can talk about a wide range of topic and learn more vocabulary.

Indonesia is famous for its beautiful places and humble people. There are a lot of things you can discover when visiting this country. Sometimes language becomes a barrier to enjoying your stay in another country. Sometimes you could just fall in love with the country and have a desire to be part of them and language become something important.

Taking an Indonesian class will help you in these situations. I'll help you to be able to talk and communicate with locals, and even better help you speak like a native Indonesian. I'll show you the culture and customs of Indonesian during the class. You'll get more information about Indonesia not only its language. I'll be happy to guide you to achieve your goals in learning Bahasa Indonesia.
