"To have another language is to possess a second soul". Charlemagne......
I offer an extremely effective way to learn English - through online, interactive lessons where there is 100% engagement for your entire lesson.
As a TESOL teacher I am dedicated to providing the highest level of tuition, and this is achievable as I am qualified in TESOL at all levels, with a wealth of experience in teaching English as a Second Language & English Literature at all levels from primary school to university; to corporate, legal and conversational English. My expertise is to challenge you in interesting ways in order to take away the dryness that can be associated with language instruction.
One of my specialities, over the 4 years I have been working from Paris, is preparing students for exams : prépa, UAC, TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, CAMBRIDGE, BUKATS, GRE, GMAT, SAT
With a background in journalism, marketing/PR and hotel management, I received my Postgraduate Certificate in TESOL in 2001, my Masters Degrees in 1999, and have been teaching English as a Second Language for over 15 years and English Literature for 20 years.

About Me
Although I am based in Paris, my clients come from all over including Geneva, Milan, Meribel, Antibes, Zurich and Chateauneuf du Pape as, thanks to the medium of Skype, we have discovered a flexible and entirely satisfactory way to work
I get enormous pleasure from working with all ages, with emphasis on students/clients who are keen to improve their knowledge of English and achieve their ultimate level. I believe that with my qualifications and passion for the English language, I am able to bring a broad range of skills and knowledge to our lessons. Lessons are informative, educative, relevant, and delivered with fun and passion.
Since starting a teaching, translation and personal coaching business, my focus has been on helping clients appreciate the importance of learning to love English in order to achieve confidence and success, at the same time advancing their careers.
For the past 20 years I have successfully taught, mentored and done translation work for up to thirty clients/students a week, including corporate, HR and asset wealth management clients, post-graduate university students and ESL students who are working towards attaining the highest scores in their TOEIC, IELTS and TOEFL or other exams.
My clients have made substantial and significant progress over this period with many attaining Upper Advanced and even bilingual results in ESL exams, and top marks in academic studies. Those wanting to improve their English level, presentation skills and entrepreneurial abilities in English have more than succeeded, and many, starting on a 20, 30 or 40 hour contact basis, have remained permanent clients.
In TOEIC, TOEFL and IELTS every one of my students (based in Paris, France) has attained between B2 and C2 results.
