Hello, Bonjour
I am Dorian, French- American living in the Houston area. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Business Languages (English and Italian) and a Master's Degree in International Trade from Chongqing University, China (all classes taught in Mandarin). I lived 9 years in China and hold a HSK4 certification.
I have over 6 years of experience teaching ESL and over 4 years teaching French to students at all levels, with a strong emphasis on building practical communication skills. My approach is student-centered, tailoring lessons to individual goals, learning styles, and interests.
For French, I focus on vocabulary, conversational fluency, pronunciation, and cultural nuances. In ESL, I integrate real-life scenarios, vocabulary development, and accent reduction techniques to help students feel confident in their spoken and written English.
When teaching Mandarin, I prioritize tone accuracy, foundational vocabulary, and speaking drills, making it especially accessible for beginners. I also use interactive tools, role-playing, and contextual practice to make lessons engaging and relevant.
I am a patient, positive, and attentive tutor who genuinely listens to your needs and adapts lessons to ensure your success. If you choose me as your language tutor, I will fully support you every step of the way. With dedication from both of us, we will achieve your language learning goals together!
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Merci!
