About Me

I'm a native English speaker from Canada with TEFL certification and two years of experience teaching English in schools. As a lifelong language learner, I know what it's like to be a language student. After years of French classes, I'm now fluent in French. I've also taken classes in Mandarin and Dutch. That's why I tailor my educational approach to your learning style and interests to deliver effective classes that ensure you meet your learning goals.

I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Every student learns differently, so I match my lessons to your learning style, interests, and goals. Before we begin, I'll take the time to understand where you are now and where you want to be, so that every session is purposeful and gets you closer to your goal.

If you're ready to take your English to the next level, send me a message! I'd love to help you get there.

Whether you want to learn, improve or deepen your knowledge of a language, you're in the right place!

Holding two master's degrees in Romance and Germanic languages and literatures, I have over 18 years of experience in teaching languages at primary, secondary and university levels.
Specializing in culturally diverse educational contexts, I have lived and taught in Latin America (Ecuador and Brazil), the United States, Spain, and Dutch-speaking Belgium. These experiences have allowed me to reach a near-native level in Portuguese, Spanish, English, and Dutch.

My goal is first and foremost to develop your understanding of the language, so that oral expression can develop gradually and with confidence.
How ?
Through dynamic and contextualized teaching methods: concrete activities, role-playing and interactive exercises.
I combine a strong linguistic knowledge with modern and innovative teaching methods, based on immersion, contextual learning, and everyday life situations. I place particular importance on the active participation of learners, both orally and in writing.
I primarily use the immersion method: lessons are conducted in the target language, allowing for natural and effective progress. Of course, you can use your native language to ask questions if needed.
These scientifically recognized approaches promote both rapid and lasting learning. My courses are structured, interactive, and fully tailored to the specific needs of each learner, guaranteeing concrete results.

Each course is custom-designed to meet your specific needs and goals. My sessions are dynamic, structured, and engaging, guaranteeing rapid and significant progress.
With a great capacity for adaptation, I establish a relationship of trust with my learners.
My patience, empathy, and professionalism will encourage you to surpass yourself

I offer English lessons focused on reading, writing, and speaking skills, immersion in the culture and history of the language and English-speaking peoples, and I use methods tailored to each student to ensure the fastest and most lasting progress. To achieve this, I utilize a variety of resources: traditional exercises (grammar, spelling), oral and audio exercises for pronunciation and comprehension, music and games, educational videos, and more.
I attach great importance to writing by hand with a pen and not just typing on a computer, as well as to non-traditional learning methods (films, music with lyrics, games) because this engages different parts of the brain more deeply and makes it easier to learn and retain information.
I guarantee personalized learning methods and support for each student, as well as a significant improvement in level in less time than would be required via traditional platforms.

Hello, my name is Rym!

I am bilingual in English and attended international schools for part of my education. Currently studying International Business, I offer English lessons to help finance my studies while sharing my passion for the language.

Motivated and dynamic, I adopt an interactive and personalized approach. I don't believe that a language can be learned solely through exercises: for me, each lesson must be tailored to the individual, in order to make learning more natural and effective.
