I am a qualified language teaching professional with a 23-year experience and translation ability in French and English. I have enjoyed working with all ages and levels for both languages, focussing on the 4 main communication skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing, in order for my learners to make an overall progress and become more independent outside the class.
Lately, I have been working mostly with adults to help them improve their general French (for holidays and/or professional change), or prepare them to take exams (DELF / DALF, TEF / TCF).
I also have experience in training teenagers for the Irish Leaving Certificate.
For general French, the format is:
- brainstorming
- listening/reading activities
- writing/speaking with extra vocabulary and pronunciation tips
- grammar
For exams:
- practice for the 4 communication skills through mocks
- grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation revision
