Tutor Biography

Bonjour, my name is Celine and I am a French native. I was born in Lyon and I studied in France, Switzerland and the United States where I earned my high school and university diplomas. I grew up learning 2 languages and I have been teaching for the past 20 years to different age groups and nationalities. Learning a language is an ongoing challenge and I enjoy working continuously on improving the effectiveness of my language teaching skills. Through experience, I have come to the conclusion that personalized lessons are essential in achieving significant results, as they provide the elements and confidence needed in order to progress. To me, this is the key to language learning success. In addition, the lessons should be taught in a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere where positive reinforcement is constantly used.

I am completely bilingual and bicultural which gives me the advantage of being able to communicate fully with the student in either language. Having been through it myself, I understand the process, as well as the frustrations, of learning another language. Teaching is for me much more than a profession: it’s a passion, and I will never stop searching for the most positive and effective ways to bring results and confidence to my students.
