I spent ten years in the United Kingdom, where I had the opportunity to teach French in a college and Music in a private school, in addition to providing private tuition.
In 2015, I returned to France and continued to teach Music in a private institution, then I became an English Teacher in middle schools, high schools, and at Aix-Marseille University within the Department of Science and Technology.

Since September 2022, I have been living in Brazil, where I have been teaching French, Portuguese, and English online.

I am deeply passionate about education and about sharing my knowledge with learners of all ages and backgrounds. My teaching style is often described as enthusiastic, engaging, and dynamic. Throughout my experience, I have observed that students are generally more motivated and confident when learning from the comfort of their own home, rather than in a traditional classroom setting.

With me, you’ll:

1. Build strong basics in grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary — step by step, without pressure.

2. Speak with confidence through real conversations and practical situations, not just exercises.

3. Discover culture — I’ve lived and taught in the UK, France, and Brazil, so I love sharing everyday expressions, habits, and cultural insights.

4. Enjoy personalised lessons that fit your goals and interests — whether it’s for travel, work, or just for fun.

5. Stay motivated thanks to a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere where you can learn at your own pace.

6. Become an independent learner, with easy tips and resources to keep improving between lessons.

7. Learning with me means progress, good energy, and lots of real communication.

Education

Taught French, English, Portuguese, and Music in schools across the UK and France, and through online lessons worldwide. I hold a Baccalauréat, DEM in Classical Guitar from the Conservatory of Music of L’Haÿ-les-Roses (France), and language teaching certifications TEFL and CAVILAM. This background allows me to create structured, engaging lessons for students of all ages and levels.”

Experience / Qualifications

I began teaching classical guitar in the early 2000s and obtained my DEM certificates in Classical Guitar and Chamber Music from the Conservatory of L’Haÿ-les-Roses in 2005. In the same year, I moved to the UK, where I learned English at Gateshead College, Newcastle, and then taught French to their students.

After returning to France in 2015, I taught English across all levels (Kindergarten to University) in both traditional and e-learning settings. I have taught at the École Supérieure Polytechnique de Marseille, the Nursing School of Marseille, and the Languages Department of Aix-Marseille University, from foundational courses to Master’s level. I have also prepared high school students for the Bac LLCE and taught English voluntarily in Latin America.

Since 2020, I have been teaching online English, Portuguese, and French (FLE) for Aix-Marseille University, CNEEL, École Française Digitale, GoStudent, Lingoda, and Voilà. I hold TEFL (2021) and CAVILAM (2023) teaching certificates.

Known for my dynamic, friendly, and professional approach, I build strong connections with students, which fosters engagement and loyalty.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Conversational Spanish is a very important part of the learning as it is the natural way to learn it. My classes are designed to help students to learn in a natural way by choosing a topic and dealing with that topic from all angles: grammar, speaking, listening and translating. That helps students to gradually absorb what they are studying. I usually conduct a relaxing lesson where students feel they can improve and learn at their own pace.
Even if you are an absolute beginner you will be able to speak some Spanish by the end of the first lesson.

A brief note: Since lessons are online, it is best to use a lapto/computer rather than a phone to enjoy the full experience.

Extra info: No preparation needed, I will take care of the equipment. Just let me know what your goals are.

Do you want to improve your skills? Are you looking for effective help with your homework or your children's? Do you want to work in a calm, focused environment with specific goals? You've come to the right place! My name is Anna, and I'm a Political Science student at the University of Rouen. Passionate about teaching and education, I offer personalized tutoring for students from elementary school (CP) to middle school (3ème), primarily in French and History-Geography. For high school students, I also offer methodology courses for subjects like History, Geography, Geopolitics, and Political Science (HGGSP) and oral exam preparation.
To make your daily life easier, I also offer occasional babysitting services for children from 5 years old (ideal for combining end-of-day care and learning).

To guarantee a breakthrough and consistent progress, each session is structured in a fluid manner:

Step 1: Understanding - We review the lesson together to ensure that the basics and essential concepts are fully understood.
Step 2: Apply – The lesson is broken down through concrete examples and guided application exercises. Step 3: Develop independence – The student completes exercises independently, followed by an interactive peer review to understand any errors.

Because we learn best when we feel confident, I am committed to providing a calm, studious, relaxed, and supportive environment. No stress, no judgment: we progress together, at the student's pace, to boost their grades and self-confidence!
