French teaching, translations, proofreading, writing and even more!
I put my heart and soul into everything I do.
I care very much for people and take pride in my work. Each person, each student, each coworker and each task is important to me.

4/9
I was born in France where I lived for 24 years before moving to Finland in 2002.
I have a degree in Languages - major in Finnish, minor in French - and another degree in Management.
I have also studied English, German, Japanese, Dutch, Swedish, Brazilian Portuguese and Latin.
Most of my skilles on some of those languages are now passive, but I know the challenges you may face when learning a foreign language.
I love people, books, nature, sports, crafts and my family.
Looking for a French teacher?
5/9
Thanks to 19 years of teaching very different people, I have learned to plan my classes according to each person's unique needs, even in group lessons!
I believe you should feel happy during the class in order to learn. My students DO learn French AND reach their goals.
Teaching is a choice for me. Before studying languages I had worked in both the private and public sectors (also as an auditor and consultant).
Translations and proofreading
7/9
As a true lover of books, words and languages, I am delighted to work on translations. I especially enjoy translating books and children literature from Finnish or English to French.
I have also been working as a proofreader since 2007 (in French) for organisations and private people.

I have worked on of all kind of projects such linked to French language like using my voice for training air pilots, in audio press or student handbooks, consulting for French speaking video games, etc.
I am always open to new projects especially when they include languages, teaching and books. If you have an idea, we could make it blossom together.
