Bonjour à tous ! My name is Sébastien and I share my life between Paris and Tokyo, where I help small companies enter Asian markets. After studying French philosophy and literature in high school, I pursued degrees in English and business administration.
I am a French national and I was born and raised in Paris, where I spent about 2 decades. Starting college, I studied, worked and travel to various places such as Hong Kong, Japan, Germany and the USA. I therefore speak fluent English and Japanese as well as elementary German and Portuguese.

Me as a Teacher
I define my teaching style as conversational and relaxed and strive for making the learning experience as enjoyable and natural as possible for the student. I believe in learning by doing and constructive pedagogical methods using real life situations and experience. Making the lesson relevant for the student is vital to me, and I would hence be delighted to help you practice on light/daily life or theme-based discussions.
My lessons & teaching style
Lessons will be 30 minutes to 1 hour and will start with an introduction to assess your level of proficiency, themes of interest and long-term objectives. On a more practical level, I would be happy to provide specialized sessions in cover letter and resume drafting as well as business French covering many sectors ranging from luxury to manufacturing, energy, aerospace or food & beverage.
I guarantee a fun, relaxed, enriching and delightful learning experience.

Another great lesson with Sébastien. He does an excellent job of asking lots of questions and helping you expand your vocab, especially in the area of business French.

Another helpful and detailed session! We did speaking exercises for TEF Canada. I'm sure my French will improve a lot with Sébastien's help.

Sebastien is a great teacher, super patient and helpful. I love his teaching method of recapping sentences/stories and that helps with memorising new words and speaking so so much! Merci

Sébastien is a great teacher. He’s fluent in English which is helpful when organizing one’s thoughts. He also has flexible hours. So it’s possible to schedule lessons on the weekend.
