I’m a native French speaker based in London, with a unique background as a former French business lawyer, certified teacher, and executive coach. I’m passionate about helping others grow through language – whether they’re learning French for work, study, travel or personal enrichment. I’ve lived and worked internationally, and I understand how to support learners in gaining confidence and fluency in a practical, supportive way.

Tutoring Experience

I have taught French in private institutions in France and now offer lessons to teenagers and adults in the UK – from complete beginners to advanced speakers. My students have included professionals, university students, and individuals preparing for exams or relocation to a French-speaking country. I teach both online (1-hour sessions) and in person (50-minute one-to-one sessions in Central London).

In addition to language teaching, my background as an executive coach brings a strong understanding of communication, motivation and learning dynamics – which I integrate into my lessons.

Tutoring Approach

I offer personalised lessons tailored to your goals – whether you want to improve conversation skills, strengthen your grammar, or become more confident in writing. I combine structured learning with real-life application, using engaging resources and interactive exercises.

My teaching style is encouraging, respectful, and focused on helping you make tangible progress – at your own pace. I believe language learning should be both effective and enjoyable.
