Course Teacher
Bonjour! I grew up in the French countryside, near Poitiers. I lived and studied in the West of France until I graduated from a BA in English Literature and Linguistics. As part of my degree, I had the opportunity to do a year abroad in Aarhus, Denmark and when coming back, I realised I wanted to live abroad again. This led me to move to London about 4 years ago and I haven’t grown tired of it yet!
I have always been passionate about languages, I find the process of learning a language fascinating and thrilling. I have started learning 8 languages… just for the sake of learning them. I am fluent in French and English, I am currently learning Spanish and Bambara and have learned German, Italian, Arabic, Serbian and Danish in the past.
As much as I enjoy being a learner, during my undergraduate degree I developed a desire to know more about language as a system. That’s when I discovered linguistics and it’s been the greatest love of my life ever since. In London, I decided to deepen my understanding of how language works by enrolling in an MA in Sociocultural Linguistics, which I graduated from with Distinction in 2022. I have researched language and identity, language varieties and accents and discourse analysis.
I have academic as well as professional experience in linguistics, language teaching, translation and transcription. I have taught both English and French to learners of all ages, within and outside the classroom. I’ve worked as a language assistant, a private tutor and a linguistic consultant.
I am committed to approaching language in a non-prescriptive way and in celebrating rather than stigmatising all the varieties and accents that exist. I strongly believe in making a language yours as a learner, which I think comes first and foremost from motivation.
Have you ever wanted to learn French and know more about French and French-speaking countries cultures? Come and learn French in a relaxed, non-judgmental and fun way with me and motivated learners!
Hope to hear from you soon et à bientôt!
