Lise

Being fluent in three languages and having initially obtained a Masters in English literature and history, I have always been fascinated by languages and their intercultural aspect. I therefore pursued my studies and subsequently obtained a second Masters in linguistics with a specialisation in French as a Foreign Language. I am absolutely passionate about languages and hope I can impart some of my knowledge and make learning a pleasant experience.

Tutoring Experience

With currently close to 25 years of experience, I have successfully trained a very large number of individuals at levels ranging from complete beginner to more advanced. Through flexible and tailored teaching methods I have a strong track record of obtaining results fast which has allowed me to work with some of the world’s biggest companies as well as with individuals looking to improve their every day French.

Tutoring Approach

Although learning a foreign language does require work, I believe it is within everybody’s reach and can be a pleasant experience. There are a number of teaching methods that can be used depending on the various requirements you might have. Whatever the preferred approach, I always aim to develop practical language skills, assisting you to overcome any language barriers you might previously have had. This is achieved through learning practical and authentic French as encountered in real life situations. Based on communication first and foremost, I will develop a personal program which will assist you to gain fluency in a minimum amount of time.
