About Me

italki teacher since Nov 9, 2020

My name is Laurène, I live close to Nice in France. I used to work as a biologist but decided in 2020 to switch careers and teach French instead. After a few months of self learning to get ready for teaching, I became a full-time Italki tutor in November 2020. I can help advanced/intermediate learners with conversation practice, and beginners with targeted exercises to help them acquire the basics. Please note I can't train students for an exam (Delf, Dalf...) nor teach children.

Me as a Teacher

During our first encounter, I will chat with you to get to know you, assess your level and define your objectives. This can be also be done during a trial lesson. It is important to me that lessons take place in a relaxed atmosphere, with material adapted to the interests of the student. Please let me know about what motivates you to help me tailor your lessons. Learning is easier when it is fun ! I am very patient and believe there is no shame in making mistakes, as it is a part of the learning process. I will gladly repeat or explain something several times if needed .

My lessons & teaching style

With beginners (A1-A2), I usually start by practicing pronunciation. In a second phase, I will prepare various activities such as oral expression, listening exercises, reading, learning some grammar rules... according to your needs and wishes. For this type of lesson, please choose "French lesson for beginners". If you have an intermediate or advanced level (A2-C1), we can have a conversation during which I help you formulate your thoughts using varied vocabulary and correct you if necessary. For this type of lesson, please choose "Discussion corrigée". Please note that for advanced students (>A2), I don't provide structured grammar classes but conversation practice only.

It is amazing how well Laurene always prepares the lessons. She usually sends me documents in advance, I believe this takes quite a bit of time outside the lessontime. She is a great teacher!!
