French

I like to focus on practical French, conversation and slang, the kind of French you would hear and need if you were to travel to France. With that, I incorporate grammar in context, rather than just learning rules without real use for them. Typically I like to start with a little warm-up, of what you have been up to lately, if you have any plans coming up, just to get the conversation going. Then we will work on a document, an audio recording or a text, answer some questions. Then we will address the grammar point of that document and finish by a short discussion of your opinion on the subject. I like working with current materials like French videos and TV shows that can easily be found on streaming platforms. I like to focus on slang and quick spoken French, that you typically hear on the streets in France. I am certified to prepare for the DELF and DALF exam, and I can adjust my lesson plan accordingly. I can teach to someone from scratch or help tutoring on already studied subjects. I can be a great help if you're wanting to take an exam, as well as if planning to visit France, I'll adapt to your needs.
