About Me

Hello/bonjour/hola! My name is Hacne, I am French and happy to live in Washington DC since April of 2016. I teach French and Spanish and also work as a professional translator; foreign languages and education have always been a real passion for me since a long time. French is my native language, I have learnt Spanish for 10 years and also spent an unforgettable year in Latin America (Chile and Mexico), where I could become totally fluent in Spanish. I was also a part-time French teacher, beside my studies. In France, I also tutored during my studies in an association helping students with school difficulties, in both English and Spanish. After graduated in 2010 with a Master's Degree of International Trade, I worked in Africa as a translator and sales developer, and still have been able to teach French as a part-time activity. After around 3 years spent in Africa for work, I moved to DC and decided to dedicate myself to activities I really enjoy doing, teaching/tutoring and translating. I think that learning a foreign language is much more than applying grammar rules, it's a complete cultural experience, it's about adopting a new way of thinking and understand other people. Oh and of course, impressing your family and friends with your new skills is also a very good reason to learn...Speaking and understanding a different language is for me a unique sensation, just like seeing students improving and succeeding thanks to my classes. After many experiences as a teacher but also as a student of foreign languages, I understood how a person has his own approach to learning and process new information. We'll focus on your goals, on how we could erase your difficulties and on the progress achieved. I will focus on adapting my way to teach to your way of learning, to build with you self-confidence. I am open-minded, have patience and humour, and we can use of originals lesson materials if it makes you learn better!
