Hi, I'm Sophie! I'm a French teacher from Lyon, in France. I am living in Istanbul, Turkey, where I have been teaching French to University students and adults for 13 years. I hold a master's degrees in teaching French as a Foreign language as well as a Master's degrees in International relations. I was previously working in that field. I love learning new languages and getting to know new countries and cultures. I've learned English, Spanish, German, Italian and Polish in a classic way during my studies and I learned Turkish while living in Turkey, by listening and speaking with people. Now I really want to share with you my passion for languages and help you with French!

I started lessons with Sophie four years ago when my level was at B1. Thanks to her support, I successfully passed the DALF C2 and can now confidently use French in my professional work. Working for the UN, I was also able to prepare effectively for the UN Language Proficiency Examination (LPE) with her support. As a DELF/DALF examiner, Sophie specializes in guiding students through effective preparation for any French exam, designing effective study plans to meet specific exam requirements. Her background in international affairs has also helped me navigate business communications with diplomats and UN colleagues.

I highly recommend Sophie as a French tutor on iTalki! Sophie is incredibly responsible and genuinely cares about me as a student and as a person. She pays great attention to details and has a solid curriculum for TCF Canada prep. With her help, I refreshed my French and passed the B2 level in just 4 months! Sophie combines solid exam prep materials with engaging extras like interesting YouTubers, podcasters, and documentaries. Her patience is unmatched, making each lesson enjoyable and stress-free. What sets Sophie apart is her dedication to my progress and her knack for making learning fun. She understands my needs and adapts her teaching style accordingly. Sophie’s lessons are always well-organized, interactive, and filled with positive energy. If you’re looking for a tutor who is both effective and delightful, Sophie is the one!

Si vous êtes en train de préparer l’examen du TEF, je vous recommande vivement Sophie. Elle comprend parfaitement les besoins de ses élèves et adapte sa pédagogie en fonction du niveau et des objectifs de chacun. Ses réponses et ses corrections sont d’une grande précision. Elle repère les moindres erreurs, les corrige avec clarté, et propose des reformulations naturelles, conformes aux attentes de l’examen. Grâce à son accompagnement, mon expression écrite a complètement évolué : j’ai gagné en structure, en fluidité et en confiance. Ce que j’apprécie tout particulièrement, c’est son approche bienveillante et personnalisée. On sent qu’elle s’investit réellement dans la réussite de ses élèves. Grâce à Sophie, je me sens beaucoup mieux préparé(e) pour le TEF. C’est, sans aucun doute, un excellent choix si vous souhaitez progresser rapidement et efficacement. Merci infiniment à Sophie pour la qualité de son enseignement !

He realizado clases con Sophie durante varios meses para mejorar mi francés profesional, pero ella no solo me ha ayudado en ese aspecto, sino que su implicación ha ido más allá. Me ha dado consejos en mi proceso de búsqueda de empleo, ideas, anécdotas, simulaciones de entrevistas. En cada sesión he recibido material de estudio y ejercicios que corregíamos juntas en la sesión siguiente, además de un documento de vocabulario y correcciones detalladas de expresión oral que para mí han resultando muy útiles. Todas las clases han sido diferentes y estimulantes. Siempre ha escuchado mis necesidades específicas y me ha proporcionado material y comentarios para mejorar sobre ello. Su carácter afable, su positividad y su empatía han permitido que me sienta cómoda en todo momento. No solo he mejorado mi francés, sino que he ganado más confianza en mí para hablarlo. Recomiendo encarecidamente a Sophie como profesora, y además como coach ;-)

I've been preparing for TEF Canada with Sophie, and I can clearly see my improvements though it has just been a few classes. She is a very experienced and resourceful teacher, and she always pinpoint my mistakes and provides helpful feedbacks on them. Although she has to get up very early for our classes (huge timezone gap here), she never missed a single one. I've worked with a few other instructors, and Sophie is the best! I'd recommend her for anyone who wants to take any tests, or just for learning French in general. Merci beaucoup :)
