Hello,

I am a passionate teacher with a solid academic background and extensive experience in language teaching. With a Bachelor's degree in Portuguese-English Literature, specializing in teaching, as well as a Master's degree in Foreign and Second Language Teaching, I specialized in FLE (French as a Foreign Language) and ESL (English Second Language). My background allows me to combine theory and practice to provide quality education, adapting to the specific challenges of each learner.

I taught English and Portuguese to professionals in large companies in Rio de Janeiro, and since 2018, I have been offering private French as a Foreign Language (FLE) lessons in English and Portuguese in Saint-Nazaire, tailored to all levels (A1 to C2) and all ages. I design personalized learning programs and pay particular attention to pronunciation, a key element for complete mastery of the language. My teaching approach is centered on each learner's progress, ensuring that learning is both effective and enjoyable.

I am available to answer any questions you may have.

Thank you and see you soon !

About Me
Since my childhood, languages have always fascinated me, and this passion has guided my dream of becoming a teacher. Today, I feel fulfilled pursuing this path, sharing my joy of discovering linguistic subtleties with my students. Teaching is a true pleasure for me, especially when I see my students learning and having fun at the same time. Highlighting the nuances between languages is a challenge I love to take on every day, turning each lesson into a moment that is both instructive and enjoyable.
Education
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Portuguese-English Literature, with a specific focus on teaching. I also obtained a Master’s degree (BAC+4) in Didactics of Foreign and Second Languages, specializing in FLE (Français Langue Étrangère) and ESL (English as a Second Language). My academic background reflects my deep commitment to language teaching, where I combine theory and practice to provide high-quality education. My training allows me to better understand the challenges learners face and to offer them tailored strategies for success.

Hello,

I am a passionate teacher with a strong academic background and extensive experience in language instruction. Holding a Bachelor's degree in Portuguese-English Literature, with a focus on teaching, as well as a Master's degree in Didactics of Foreign and Second Languages, I specialize in FLE (French as a Foreign Language) and ESL (English as a Second Language). My background allows me to combine theory and practice to provide high-quality education, adapting to the specific challenges of each learner.

I have taught English and Portuguese to professionals in major companies in Rio de Janeiro and, since 2018, I have been offering private lessons in FLE, English, and Portuguese in Paris, catering to all levels (A1 to C2) and ages. I design personalized pedagogical programs and pay special attention to pronunciation, which is key for complete language mastery. My teaching approach is focused on the progress of each learner, ensuring that the learning experience is both effective and enjoyable.

I'm available if you have any questions.

Thank you and see you soon !

Lycéenne en terminale littéraire offers remedial classes in languages. Having lived 4 years in Brazil I speak fluently Portuguese, and I am rather comfortable in Spanish and English. I have never given lessons and I do not claim to have the skills of a real teacher (my rates are not those of a teacher) but I can try to give you the taste of languages. Having myself encountered difficulties with languages in college, I propose in my courses methods of work that I myself experienced a few years ago and that made me make considerable progress. I will accompany you during these few steps:
- build a vocabulary book
- learn the rules of syntax
- know how to use perfectly the pronouns "who, who, whose, whom" while exchanging verbally
- Do translations (make it possible to assimilate the vocabulary)
- Make editorials
- extend your culture to take an interest in the language
- AND THE MOST IMPORTANT: watch movies at first in English subtitled French, then English subtitled English, and then finally without subtitles when your level will be solid. I will give you films to watch, with questions that you will give me for the next course and an oral summary, all in an atmosphere of relaxation and love of languages; because languages are very useful but they reflect above all a history, a culture and allow us to communicate!
All in all, I would like to show you how exciting languages can be, to help you improve your level of English and Spanish and to give you advice on your questions or to introduce you to a warm language that opens the door to doors of Latin America!
