Certified Tutor
I am a French native speaker with a bachelor level degree in tourism and communication, & a B.T.S in fine Art.
For my military students, since 2009 I have a DLPT & OPI level 5out of 5 in French & level 3+ out of 5 in English.
Since 2011, I am an American citizen, organized and professional French instructor, tutor, curriculum developer & translator.
I can teach classes and mentor employees in one-on-one sessions.
I am highly motivated to mentor online face to face any student at any age or French level.
I love developing fun and efficient lessons. I have been since 2011.
I am also a French author, proofreader-corrector for any type of documents, lessons or video- lessons.
My passion for my French native language started when I was a teenager, thanks to my uncle Claude Dufresne (famous French writer and reporter, recognized by the French Academy & winner of the Prix Goncourt), picking his brain, learning how to create and correct stories, news, history. Or, learning how to go from the simplest sentences to the most elaborate rich but not heavy phrases. Learning how to recognize and make a difference between a vulgar slang expression and a delicious fun one.
If you are looking to learn some French for your next travels, if you or your kids are struggling when you listen , read or try to pronounce French... You are at the right place!
French is not difficult and it can be super fun !

Like I wrote on my personal statement I love creating art such as drawing, painting with oil, acrylic or on silk. Creating embroidered landscapes, or making jewelries with semi precious stones or recycled objects, gardening or cooking are my favorites activities in my free time. This is why I enjoy creating fun French lessons or video lessons.
