Ich als Lehrkraft
I'm a certified special need educator
I have a "human approach". I like to connect with people and create a bond with them
I know how to adapt and adjust my teaching skills
I make sure to offer the students what they need and give them a realistic way of achieving their goals
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I believe that the best way to learn a new language is first to be comfortable with the teacher, have a great connection & be physically & mentally available. Success comes with time. Allow yourself to make mistakes.
In my lessons :
✻ I want you be yourself, feel confortable, allow yourself to make mistakes. We want improvement. Not perfection :)
✻ I have plenty of activities to propose. You do not have to come prepared unless you want to do something specific.
✻ I do not have a "structure". We go with the flow and do what you're in the mood for. I'll be there to support and guide you.
I chat with Vanessa 2-3 times per week and it has been SO helpful in developing my conversational skills. She’s so kind and has a great sense of humor which makes her easy to talk to.

Vanessa is terrific! My french is horrible, but she is patient and does her best to understand me. She offers simple ways to get my point across and helps me to feel more confident in my ability to communicate. I would recommend her to everyone! She is a GREAT teacher!

Vanesse est gentille et amicale. Elle m'a aidé à corriger mes erreurs et m'a appris comment dire les choses correctement. C'était une excellente séance, et j'ai beaucoup apprécié discuter avec elle. Je vais régulièrement organiser des séances avec elle pendant mes études de français. Merci beaucoup !
