Why settle for the basics when you can stand out from the very beginning? :) Feel free to contact me for more information.

"Have you ever dreamed of being told, 'Your English is amazing – have you lived in the US or England?' If so, you've come to the right place. Traditional schools and formal classes often focus on grammar with a dash of listening practice, but this method can be monotonous and leave you unprepared to speak with confidence. From my own language learning journey, I know there is a better way.

In this course, my goal is to give you the tools to speak like a native speaker from day one. Learning a language is about more than just words and rules: it’s about building a whole new personality in that language. Together, we’ll discover how to think, react, and even joke like a native, so you can make natural connections and be truly understood.

During our first session, we will assess your needs to better adapt the lessons to your level of English. For example, you may have a good level, but your pronunciation is difficult to understand. If you wish, we can focus on specific exercises to improve it. Or, do you have difficulty understanding English speakers who speak quickly? Then we will work together to overcome this obstacle and strengthen your listening skills!

First of all, congratulations on getting this far: finding the right teacher is not easy, but the hardest part is behind you.


My method is innovative and differs from the classic French system (obsolete and archaic):

The student learns to become independent and autonomous by integrating technical principles applicable to different scenarios, somewhat according to the philosophy of Asian martial arts (but rest assured, nothing martial here, everything is done flexibly).
My lessons are fun, and are aimed at beginners as well as experienced ones.

The first step consists of first validating a few quick theoretical and technical bases. This is a crucial step to progress quickly and efficiently: what is a grade? A deal ? An arpeggio? A range ? How to hold a pick? In what position to play?

Once the basics have been acquired, the student can learn pieces of their choice or work on particular playing techniques (picking, alternate picking, tapping, etc.) always in accordance with their needs, and above all their desires! Obviously the content is adapted to each person, the same goes for the style: Rock, Blues, Pop, Variety, Reggae, Metal... the possibilities are endless.

For those who wish to risk it, the theme of improvisation is also on the program:
Contrary to popular belief, this discipline is not reserved for the elite or the experienced, everyone is capable of it with a little training and an appropriate method.


Music is an artistic field, everyone can see a future in it as long as the motivation is there!
