About Me

J'ai 35 ans et je suis maman de 2 enfants. Mon mari est infirmier.
J'enseigne l'anglais à l'école Notre-Dame de la Sagesse.
Je fais du sport assez régulièrement et je varie entre la natation, le jogging et le vélo en fonction de la météo.
J'apprends le piano et suis des cours de solfège.
J'adore enseigner et j'espère rendre mes cours les plus amusants possible car on apprend mieux lorsqu'on prend du plaisir.
Je passe beaucoup de temps à confectionner des jeux pour pratiquer la langue en jouant.
Depuis que j'enseigne, j'ai amassé beaucoup de manuels et autres ressources ce qui fait que j'aurai toujours des exercices à proposer en fonction de la demande.

I consider Languages as the window from which you can start by understanding a culture ; It says a lot about how its people think . Because every language have its own logic and thats the hardest part to learning a new language , i'll guide you through the way .
I am passionate about languages and when we love something we do it very well !
i am a very patient teacher , fun will be part of the course and you will be surprised by how fast you will learn
I am fluent in Arabic French and English

Hello! If you can understand this message without having to translate then you are ready for my help! I am from California, and have been living here in Brussels since 2012. I am 44 years old. I speak West Coast (California) English. It's the English you hear in your favorite California movies. I love to help friends who already speak "European street English" while HAVING FUN! Did you know that 70% of learning a language is learned OUTSIDE of a classroom setting? So I propose we go to the park, we cook together, we go on a bike ride, we draw, we play. And of course we will talk a lot. When I hear an error I will correct you in a fun way, writing things for you, with FUN AND REAL examples, with drawings, ALWAYS STAYING 100% in English. That's correct, I will only speak English to you, because as you and I both know, you already speak English, and you have understood everything (or maybe 70%) of everything I just wrote. What you want is to improve or perfect your spoken English (we can work on writing, too). Immersion and fun, West Coast Style. And my university degree? Yes, I have two of them, in Languages and Literature, and I speak 4 fully fluent languages (working on number five currently), but for now I want you to learn English by HAVING FUN! My friends and prior students can tell you how fun it is to learn with me. HOPE WE GET TO PLAY TOGETHER SOON! You can do it! Groups ok.

I offer English classes for all levels and ages. Classes can be one-to-one and in groups. My methodology focuses mainly on practicing speaking and listening. However, the methodology depends on the student's strengths and weaknesses.

The methodology depends on the needs of the students. I've experienced working with teenagers and high school students. I can adapt my methodology to students who do not yet know how to read or write.

For the little ones I try to make my classes very practical and full of games, focusing mainly on listening.

For older students, it will depend on the student's goal.

I don't speack French.
