About Me

Hello, my name is Stéphane. I am half- French, half-American. I was born and raised in Paris. I attended a bilingual school there, before obtaining a B.A. in Comparative Literature from Yale.

I currently reside in the south of France, where I work as a language teacher. I have been teaching full-time for the past 8 years. I have interacted with close to 300 students and taught about 10,000 hours of classes. Although English makes up the bulk of my lessons, I have a fair amount of experience teaching French as well,

I use a structured approach based on books. I figure out your CEFR level , I get you grammar and vocabulary books, we work through them and when we are done I make you take the exam for your level. This ensures that you make concrete progress.

To make classes more fun, I supplement the books with videos, songs, and games.

Because I am perfectly bilingual, I can speak to you like a French native and explain differences between French and English grammar.

If you need specific vocabulary for a job I can accommodate that. I am extremely curious and flexible and can draw from a deep academic and professional background.
I studied economics, medicine and law in college , and I have worked in different fields including banking and government. Moreover, as part of my language teaching, I have interacted with every kind of professional you can think of, including lawyers, doctors, real estate agents, sales managers and CEOs.

I look forward to teaching you French !

He is bilingual in French and English which made him easy to help student learn corresponding French. Also he can walk with student on the broad issues to make French learning for socially and culturally meaningful. Meanwhile his excellent grammar books and his clear examples allow student to start to decipher the tricky riddle of French grammar.
