I'm Ondine and I am a serial languages lover. I clearly remember being 8 and asking my dad to buy me a method to learn English by myself. That was the first step towards learning English, Spanish, Italian, Arabic and Ukrainian. I just love to chat with people and I've found it's easier if they actually understand what I'm saying.
I'm also passionate about ballet, arts and culture in general, and of course travelling where I can use my language skills - or learn a new one...
Me as a Teacher
I grew up in a family of teachers and I've been exposed to efficient pedagogy from an early age. Through my language learning journey I've set up my own method for learning and I believe the first step is to understand how you like to learn, then what topics interest you the most. As a community tutor, I'll adapt to your requests if you have any, or guide through interesting learning topics.
My lessons & teaching style
As a community tutor, I want to help you be comfortable speaking like a true native. True natives sometimes make mistakes, use the wrong grammar and forget the right word. So no pressure required!
I'm also a life coach and I use this skills to empower you and overcome the fear of making mistakes. The truth is that we learn faster when we are not afraid to say it wrong. You're here to learn, not to be perfect already! Let's enjoy learning!
Note: Please note that for French conversation practice, I start at Level A2 :) Thank you

Ondine is fun, knowledgeable and enjoyable to converse with. She puts students at ease and handles corrections tactfully and effectively. I highly recommend getting her assistance.

C'est une leçon parfaite. Ondine is so motivating, patient, super clear in explaining complex concept, and willing to take every step slow - which is just vital for a new learner like me. She would speak slowly and find the best way to keep everything in French so that I could listen more and speak more and immersed totally in French, while not over-whelmed by too much difficult concepts or sentence strucutre. She would also speak slowly and repeatedly so that I could gradually understand more and more, while not be stressed by understanding nothing. Just couldn't say more. Merci beacoup Ondine pour le temps encore. À bientôt!

Ça fait longtemps que je n'ai pas pris de leçon avec Ondine à cause des changements dans ma vie, mais quand nous nous sommes retrouvés, c'était encore une heure très agréable, comme toujours. J'ai beaucoup appris grâce à Ondine. Merci encore et à très bientôt.
