Private French Lessons Through Literature, Conversation, and Visual Media (Ik geef les in het Frans of Engels. Ik spreek geen Nederlands.)

French native with a Master’s degree in Art History and Modern Literature, I offer French lessons in Amsterdam.
Living in Amsterdam since 2019, I’m 28 years old and have a background that bridges culture and language. I have worked as a TV program editor, and I hold both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Art History, with a specialization in Modern French Literature.

Passionate about the French language, its literature, and its rich imagination, I offer engaging and culturally immersive lessons where we learn through books, images, and real-life situations.
The goal is to help you communicate with ease, but also to read and enjoy the language in all its richness.

I teach students of all ages, from young children to adults, and I can give lessons at my place or online (via video call).

About Me

I’m 28 years old and have been living in Amsterdam since 2019.
As a native French speaker, I truly enjoy sharing my language and culture with others. Teaching French allows me to stay connected to my mother tongue and to pass on my love for it to students of all ages and backgrounds. Whether through conversation, literature, or everyday life, I believe language learning should be both meaningful and enjoyable.

In addition to teaching French, I also have a background in jazz piano, which I studied for several years. I’m now excited to share this passion as well, especially with French-speaking students in Amsterdam who are curious to explore music in a relaxed and creative way.

Education

- 2014-2015 : Université Paris XIII - Licence 1 en Journalisme
- 2015-2019 : Université Paris X - Licence (obtenue) Histoire de l'art et Archéologie
- 2019-2021: Université Paris X - Master Histoire de l'art contemporain

- 2021-2024 : Schedule Editor (French Television)

Experience / Qualifications

I have several years of experience working with children.
I taught French and study methods to a small group of children aged 11, 9, and 6, as well as to two young boys aged 10 and 8. These experiences allowed me to develop a creative and adaptive teaching approach, always centered around curiosity, play, and confidence-building.

In addition to working with children, I also helped a high school student prepare for her French Literature Baccalauréat, which she passed successfully.

Alongside teaching, I’ve worked as a television program editor in France, and I hold a Master’s degree in Art History and Archaeology, with a specialization in Modern French Literature. My academic background, combined with my love of language and culture, shapes a rich and engaging learning experience for each student.
My name is Marine, I'm 28 years old and I've been playing the piano since I was 12. A graduate of the Chantilly Departmental Conservatory in France (training obtained alongside my baccalaureate), I also studied jazz for two years in a specialized school, then in jazz piano classes at the conservatory. My musical approach is therefore rich, lively and open, far from rigid classical patterns. ⸻ 🎯 For whom? • Children from 5-6 years old, teenagers and adult beginners • No prior knowledge required • Ideal for those who want to discover the piano while having fun, without any professional objectives ⸻ 🌟 My teaching methods The idea is not to learn the piano as a constraint, but to experience it as a pleasure, a way of expressing yourself and discovering your own musicality. ✅ Method without traditional music theory: we work by ear, drawing inspiration from videos (such as “synthesia”), well-known songs and film music. ✅ Progressive but natural learning: we start with popular music (cartoons, pop culture, film music – Disney, Harry Potter, etc.) ✅ Objective: to develop listening, musical sensitivity, interpretation, creativity, and the pleasure of playing ✅ Gentle introduction to improvisation and the first elements of jazz, if the student is curious. ⸻ 🎶 Why me? • Experience with children and adolescents (I have already helped several young people learn their favorite music) • Lessons adapted to each student: I attach great importance to their musical tastes, their desires, their pace • Caring, encouraging approach focused on the enjoyment of music • I am French-speaking, but I can also adapt to an international audience if necessary. ⸻ 📍 Where? • At home (Amsterdam, De Pijp) ⸻ ✨ If your child dreams of playing Let It Go, Harry Potter or The Lion King on the piano, or if you yourself finally want to dare to put your hands on a keyboard, I would be delighted to accompany you on this musical adventure.

Conversation French, homework guidance for students and adults
The French language is characterized by beautiful sounds and beautiful expressions, but given the many types of grammatical tenses, it is sometimes difficult to 'get the hang of'. By talking a lot in French and being busy with the language in its various forms, the 'vehicle' becomes an interesting challenge in the long run. How nice is it to visit Paris, for example, and be able to make yourself understood there?

Phillip
Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.
