I am a foreign language teacher and native French speaker with over 15-years of experience teaching French to diplomats, military personnel, Peace Corps volunteers and students at the university and high school levels in West Africa (Guinea and Mali) and the United States (Philadelphia and Washington DC). I enjoy tutoring students and helping them build confidence in their ability to speak proficiently and professionally in academic and social settings. I employ a variety of instructional techniques, including cooperative learning, standard grammar instruction, storytelling, reinforcement of daily learning via homework, film, music, games, while creating a challenging and fun environment as well as sharing my cultural experiences.
I am also an experienced translator. I can translate from French-English, or English-French.
I am dynamic, flexible and have a great sense of humor. And I'm committed to helping you reach your language goals!
