Dear learners,                      

I am a private, experienced native French and Sorbonne certified teacher.
I offer individual French lessons in Paris.
A one to one French tuition is the best way to improve the language skills and is not only dedicated to advanced students.

I have been teaching French as a second language for more than 15 years.  
Most of my students are Anglophones. And the others generally come from Germany, Russia, Latin America or Asia.
I can speak English and German as well.

Grammar and conversation are an important part of my teaching, but my passion is phonetics.

Observing my students' needs for years and trying to be as helpful and pragmatic as possible, I created an original method of pronunciation that always reveals itself to be very efficient.    
This method (anglophone-oriented)  is based on morphological signs, intended to symbolize the shape of the tongue and mouth while pronouncing the French sounds and especially the vowels.

As French language is definitely not phonetic but etymological, a few rules exist and are essential in order to grasp how French vowels must be pronounced according to their particular location inside a word. The tongue placement and mouth shape are part of my teaching. The nasal vowels and even the French "R" can be properly pronounced thanks to a simple mechanical work.
Concerning grammar, because a good method should never be simply descriptive, I explain and justify the rules.
