French as a foreign language courses (beginner, intermediate and advanced level)

French as a foreign language is the French language when it is taught to a non-French-speaking public, whatever their objectives, their projects and the use to which they intend to put this language (professional objectives or with the aim of benefiting from university training, learning for pleasure, etc.).

The French language is shared by 300 million speakers spread across five continents, in around forty French-speaking countries.
The word "Francophone," far from the idea of a "reference French," refers to the great linguistic and cultural diversity of French-speaking countries and the spoken French associated with them. Teaching French as a foreign language as a "Francophone language" means teaching the plurality of spoken French in order to give a true image of French in the world.

As a specialized and experienced teacher in teaching French as a foreign language, I offer individualized teaching. My goal is to help students progress, both orally and in writing.

About Me
Passionate about art history and archaeology and eager to share this passion, I began my professional life as an archaeologist before turning to teaching art history.
Having spent my first 19 years in 7 African countries, I became aware of cultural diversity very early on. The desire to meet others and to feel useful to immigrant audiences ultimately led me to follow a certified training course in teaching French as a foreign language (FLE).
My main qualities are my patience, my listening skills and my ability to adapt to varied profiles and situations.

My teaching method is action-based pedagogy, based on communicative tasks that correspond to the needs and identity of the learner.

FLE teacher graduated from the Alliance française Bruxelles-Europe. I taught in Laos (1 year in a local school) in Peru (1 year in a college and in a French alliance), in Moscow (2 years in a private language school), in Brussels (6 month in an association that delivers courses to newcomers and the F9 for private and group lessons at the ULB).
The type of teaching that I favor is based on active pedagogy, constant interaction of the learner with his teacher and his environment, a cultural exchange and a clear and precise understanding of the objectives to be achieved.
To apply this practice I use a lot: authentic documents (radio and TV programs, articles, reports, songs, testimonials, ...), the role play (theatrical exercises), games are a founding element of my teaching (playful and recreational approach of the language), the debates (the experience and the personal history being the raw material to animate them), reading (books and comics: phonetics), the grammatical exercises in adequacy with the theme ( didactics of FLE and grammatical methodology)

Hello to all of you!
I welcome you to my profile.
You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French.
Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning.
Hence my presence on this site.
My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French.
To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges.
I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours.
This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible!
It's all in your favor!
Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.
