Carine Balcan

I am learning some great grammar and also conversation skills with Carine.

Lessons with Carine are always relaxed and never stressful. The focus is truly on learning, but in a way that isn’t too strict. She takes the time to ensure I fully understand each concept—its meaning, how to apply it, and the correct pronunciation. When introducing new grammar rules, she provides examples and helps construct sentences related to everyday life, which I find much more effective. We also sometimes touch on phonetics, learning how to produce sounds correctly and the techniques to improve pronunciation. I truly enjoy our lessons. Thank you Carine. :)

Another great lesson! Carine did a great job clearing up some difficult grammar points. Merci !

Today's session focused on grammar and how to apply it. I really enjoyed the material because it's practical and something I can actually use in everyday life, unlike textbook dialogues that often feel too formal and not always relevant. I really appreciate Carine’s teaching style and the materials she chooses to focus on.

I'm really grateful for all the support Carine has given me while preparing for the exam. It went really well. All the scenarios and questions that came up were exactly what we practiced during our lessons. I'm very happy with the experience and excited to keep learning with Carine!

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!
