About Christine
Bonjour ! Welcome to my profile.I am a native French speaker, a French citizen, and I grew up in France, where I immersed myself in the language, culture, and daily life. In 2017, I moved to the USA and settled right here in Novi, Michigan. As an entrepreneur, I bring a structured, results-oriented, and highly practical mindset to everything I do—including teaching French.My background is rooted in real-world communication. I understand firsthand the difference between the rigid, formal French taught in standard textbooks and the dynamic, rhythmic language actually spoken by locals. This native insight allows me to help my students bypass mechanical translation and start thinking directly in French.Over the years, I have successfully shared my language and culture with people of all ages and backgrounds. Whether I am guiding an adult traveler through their first conversational hurdles, helping a professional prepare for international business, or mentoring local high school students to boost their confidence before major academic exams, my approach remains the same: supportive, patient, and completely personalized.Language learning shouldn't feel like a chore. As your coach, I bring the authentic accent, cultural context, and everyday idioms that you simply cannot get from an app or a traditional classroom. I am dedicated to creating an encouraging, high-energy environment where you feel safe making mistakes and celebrating your progress. I look forward to meeting you in a private study room at the Novi Public Library or online to help you reach your fluency goals!

My Teaching Method & What to Expect in Our LessonsEvery lesson I design is structured around real-world results, active speaking, and immediate confidence. I do not use dry, outdated textbooks. Instead, we use immersive materials that make the French language come alive.Here is exactly how I tailor my lessons to your specific goals: For Conversational Learners: We focus 100% on the "Real French" spoken on the streets of Paris, Montreal, and Lyon. You will master modern idioms, native pronunciation, and natural rhythm. We will discuss current events, watch media clips, and build your confidence so you can handle any real-world interaction without freezing. For Travel & Vacation Prep: We target the essential linguistic survival kits. You will learn how to navigate restaurants, decipher train schedules, interact politely with locals, and handle emergencies with ease. You will step off the plane feeling like a traveler, not an anxious tourist.For High School & AP/IB Exam Prep: I provide highly focused, strategic support to elevate academic performance. We will reverse-engineer your school curriculum, sharpen your listening comprehension, and polish your free-response essays so you can secure a top score and earn college credit. Structure of a Standard 60-Minute Session:The First 10 Minutes: Warm-up conversation entirely in French to trigger your "language switch."The Core 35 Minutes: Targeted skill-building (analyzing an authentic article, practicing an exam prompt, or role-playing a travel scenario).The Final 15 Minutes: Accent corrections, vocabulary consolidation, and an actionable roadmap for your independent practice before our next meet-up.Whether we meet in a quiet, private study room at the Novi Public Library or connect online from the comfort of your home, you will walk away from every single session speaking more French than when you arrived!
