About Me
italki teacher since May 4, 2021
InterestsArtHistoryReading
My name is Élise, I come from a very small town in France named Poitiers. Learning languages is a passion of mine, I currently speak 4 and I am learning Italian as well.
Sometime between 3 and 4 is when it all became clear for me.
I have a dog named Sibyl that sleep most of the time, the rest of the time she asks for food or we go on walks. You might occasionally see her during my classes.
My classes always happen in the afternoon (Lisbon time) because in 2021 I made the decision to go back to school, so my mornings are dedicated to that.
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher I use the same techniques I use when I want to learn a language. There is 1 secret about learning a language : practice, practice, practice.
I know it's nothing new but it works. During our first classes I will help you set up a daily home practice focused on the 4 skills of a language: reading/ writing/ listening/ speaking.
I will also share with you a file that I keep updated regularly about French movies, TV shows, series, documentaries, podcasts to watch. Learning a language is also learning about the culture.
I am pretty laid back and rather talkative but I will make sure you have results and that the practice is enjoyable for you.
My lessons & teaching style
Anyone learning French or any other language have a similar objective : being able to understand a francophone and express themself with ease. It is not everyone's objective to become a linguist.
To that effect we do need to talk about the G-word. Grammar, yes grammar is important for you to understand on a surface level, what is most important though is for you to apply it correctly and that will happen with practice and correction from me.
My beginner- intermediate classes are split in 2 parts: technique and practice. Each class we will practice French without fail
For conversation classes, prior to the class I will send some content and then we will talk about it.

Elise is an amazing teacher!! I have had two lessons so far in conversational french and have learnt a lot. She always asks lots of questions and will explain things if you don’t understand. If you don’t know a word she will type it into the chat box so you can make note of it. Overall she is so nice and an amazing teacher!!
