I offer practical, everyday, and/or literary English lessons, as well as academic support, in person or online. I specialize in pronunciation and diction through my training and professional experience in opera and theater.

Initially a musician and teacher, I have a good knowledge of English (understanding, speaking, reading and writing, teaching in English), at level B2-C1.
I have spent part of my professional life in English (international training, training & apprenticeships in English, teaching music to English-speaking audiences, teaching diction in foreign languages, reading professional articles).

Passionate about diction, languages & literature, trained in creative writing, I also speak Italian, I have notions of Spanish, Portuguese & German.

A graduate of the Royal Conservatory of Brussels and the Flanders Operastudio, I am a singer, musician, dancer and psychomotor therapist (Haute École Léonard de Vinci). I have been teaching since 2005, in music academies and privately; I am also trained in theatre techniques and have worked as a director and teacher of stage movements with singers since 2009.
My approach to voice is based on my combined practices of singing, movement and psychomotor skills, and the contributions of my various training courses.
I work on technique, development and rehabilitation of the voice, through different repertoires, from speech to lyrical singing. I accompany my lessons on the piano.
I also teach stage movement classes for opera singers.

Hope to meet you,

I’m a native English business professional with over 40 years of international experience. During my career I’ve lived and worked in the United States, Scotland and Belgium while doing business in all regions of the world. I have worked at all lèves of management and in addition to running a business for a private company have also owned and started two other businesses on my own.

I offer the opportunity for professionals to use me as a sounding board for their activities while simultaneously fine-tuning their use of English. I’ve been doing this activity for over ten years and can provide references on request. My clients have been diverse who work in the fields of law, medicine, science, government, manufacturing, services, etc. My diverse professional and educational background gives me the ability to converse on virtually any subject that my clients require.

I first identify the student's gaps and then develop a work plan with him/her. My goal is to encourage students to give the best of themselves while having fun and developing a taste for the language and its culture. I want to remedy their difficulties and above all give them (back) confidence in themselves, because I believe that 70% of the ability to express oneself in another language depends on our self-confidence and/or our abilities. For students who would like to go further, I also give them the opportunity by teaching them the nuances of the language, the "spoken" language or the formal language, mainly in writing... it's according to their wishes.

Above all, I want to meet the expectations of my students and help them improve where they want. Having (had) direct contact with English and German, I also anchor my lessons in the cultural reality of each of these languages by talking about current topics, using new technologies or starting from popular culture to give meaning to what I teach, so that the student sees the direct use he/she can make of his/her language knowledge. After all, in an increasingly globalized world, languages are lived and are no longer just forms frozen in books several years old.
I am therefore focused on the students and, even if I also want to pass on my passion to them, my point of honor is to be able to understand them and understand their real difficulties/desires in order to be able to create a course adapted to each one.

It is always good to know several languages whether for work or when you go to a foreign country. Languages are one of the first if not THE first way to communicate with another person.

I will teach you in this course first the basics of the language you want to learn and then we will go to various subjects.

The key to learning a language is repetition through constant use through reading, listening, speaking and writing, and therefore requires endeavour, perseverance and patience.

This course promotes fluency in both oral and written communications.

The course activities includes: a.) general/business topic discussions based on events, articles from the web, and written materials, b.) listening and reading activities, and c.) in-class/homework written/oral exercises. These activities are selected to tailor to the needs of the participant. They help to improve pronunciation, enhance vocabulary and expressions and create simple to complex structures following correct grammatical syntax, usage and rules.
