Carine Balcan

Each session has been incredibly helpful! I really appreciate your guidance on key vocabulary and phrases that are useful in different situations, especially for the exam. Learning how to apply them across various scenarios help me feel even more confident. Thank you so much Carine!

Sessions with Carine are always productive. She reviews past lessons and teaches me how to handle situations when I get stuck, including what to say and how to ask for help. Her approach is clear, straightforward, and useful in many situations. Merci Carine. :)

Every session is truly productive. Carine helps clarify challenges, keep the focus on what's being asked, and provide valuable guidance on grammar and conjugation. Her constructive feedback is incredibly helpful in improving my approach to answering exam questions. Merci Carine :)

She is such a wonderful teacher. I am learning conversation, pronunciation and we review homework together. A lot of fun!

Even when I come to a lesson unprepared (because, well… life happens), Carine still manages to make the session highly productive. She expertly guides me through the trickiest questions in the mock exams, ensuring I understand not just the answers but the reasoning behind them. Her lessons always provide valuable takeaways that help me—not just for the upcoming exam but also for real-life conversations. Learning with Carine is never stressful; she makes even the toughest topics feel approachable and engaging!

Today, we focused on production écrite. Carine does a great job of helping me overcome any challenges I face by clearly explaining how to approach the questions. Her guidance gives me a solid structure to build my writing from. Talking with a native teacher helps me learn how to say things naturally, including common expressions that I don’t find in textbooks. Thank you Carine :)
