My Experience:

I have been tutoring students of all ages since I was 16, both in-person and online, and have continued this passion throughout the pandemic.
With a bachelor's degree in Social Anthropology and a master’s in Marine Ecosystems and Policies, I bring a unique perspective to teaching, incorporating cultural and environmental themes where appropriate.
My two years as a nursery practitioner have equipped me with the skills to create a positive and nurturing environment, even for the youngest learners.
I strive to make every lesson fun, informative, and tailored to your learning journey. My goal is to help you build confidence in your French skills while fostering a genuine love for the language and culture.
