About Sienna

Hi there!

My name is Sienna, and I’m a third-year student in Education Sciences and Humanities. I’m Franco-Australian, and I moved to France to study and live here when I was 16. Thanks to learning a foreign language, I’ve had the chance to discover new countries and enrich my studies multiple times. The first time was when I completed high school in the south of France, and the second was during my international university exchange in Argentina. This experience convinced me of the power of teaching and studying foreign languages. I’m currently aspiring to become a primary school teacher in humanitarian missions. I love learning new languages, reading, and traveling.

I’ve worked with children and adults at an English center during my second year of university. This experience allowed me to develop lesson plans tailored to the diverse needs of different groups, track and evaluate each student’s personal progress, and provide an engaging and suitable approach based on their profiles.

I’ve also taught French both in-person and online in Australia, which pushed me to study the grammar of Romance languages in depth. Lastly, the challenge of teaching young children in a distance learning setup has inspired me to be innovative in capturing my students’ attention and interest.

Learning with me means discovering fascinating horizons! Together, we’ll explore languages and cultures while having fun. I’m here to support you and make every lesson exciting. Ready for the adventure?

About the lesson

I really enjoy teaching conversational French, I believe this is the way language was supposed to be taught ; through a connexion with someone encouraging you to embrace the effort communicate with them in their language. There is a perfect mix of autonomy and clear improvement in the intermediate levels, and in more advanced learners, this is often the point where speaking is the main language weakness, rather than writing and reading. I'm naturally very sociable and extroverted (for being French) and sincerely look forward to finding interesting questions and getting to know my students as they get to know me. I also diligently plan lessons, even though conversation is fluid, in order to bring aspects of French culture to the table and provide grammar supports. And also so that it doesn't just feel like a conversation you could have with someone on the internet .

French for beginners
Learning a new language - especially for the first time, is usually quite overwhelming. If you are learning French as a first second language, not only are you learning French, you are also learning how to learn a language. This is especially the case for English native speakers, as Anglo-Saxon countries rarely thoroughly teach grammar in schools. My approach with beginners is encouraging, patient, and provides a lot more structure than conversational classes. Learning is still context-based but overall, I make sure to provide support not only in vocabulary appropriation, grammatical rules and conjugation, but also in access to cultural resources. If French is not your first foreign language and you are already familiar with a romantic language, this means that you have a really good head start, one that is important to recognise and capitalise on. Romantic languages tend to have very similar semantics and grammatical structures. Because I am familiar with most romantic languages, I can often support students with recognising these patterns and resemblances between French and, for example, Spanish or Italian. This fluidifies the language learning process, nourishing confidence and motivation.

Intensive French
I personally have always learned languages quite intensely, I get passionate and can spend multiple hours a day submersed in books, music, and conjugation tables. I know what's effective in intensity, what isn't, and how to balance out different language skills so that you don't end up fluently reading without being able to construct a sentence. I would love to accompany students looking to go all in the French learning journey, I see it as a pretty special process.

French for children
I have a lot of experience teaching second languages to children, both in French and English. One of the best parts of teaching children is the creative process of finding which approaches, themes, and activities for each student, and getting to see how much they enjoy it when you find something that really clicks. I find online tutoring most suitable for children over 7.

I've never met anyone that's as passionate about teaching, learning, and education in general as Sienna. Her teaching method and her energy let you dive deep into the learning process and really enjoy it. I think the main reason why this is the case is that you can tell she's enjoying it as well.

I myself was impressed on the pace of the progress in my French, especially regarding my listening and my confidence speaking, I'm very happy I chose her :)

Highly recommend!! I employed Sienna for my son who was really struggling in his high-school french class. She proved to be a very skilful teacher with effective communication style. Within 10 weeks my son's marks had moved from a 'C' (around 50%) to a 'B' (over 75%). I couldn't be happier and my son is much more confident.
