Zoe's Profile

My name is Zoe, I am English and I live in the south-west of France.

I have a TEFL diploma and several years of experience in teaching English, including:

• Teaching adults and children on a one to one basis and in group classes, from beginner level to advanced.
• Offering assistance with homework etc.
• Job interview preparation (e.g. mock interviews)
• Exam preparation – TOEIC, IELTS, BULATS
• Grammar revision, listening and reading practice.
• Business English.

I have been in France since June 2000. When I arrived I couldn’t speak much French; I learnt by living with and talking to French people. My partner is French, he doesn’t speak English; we have 3 young children who are being brought up bilingually - I love teaching them.

I don’t profess to being an expert in the English language; I think we never stop learning! I was brought up to speak properly (thank you mum!), so I offer English conversation with a REAL native British English speaker.

My main aims are to help with vocabulary building and pronunciation. I also offer listening and reading practice which are a vital part of learning a new language!

Come and meet me, let’s chat about your language learning requirements; I’ll make suggestions, give you my advice and try to guide you through your language learning experience as painlessly as possible!

Bring a coffee and a good sense of humour to class; let's have fun while you learn!

Looking forward to meeting you soon…..

p.s. Check out my video - Last year I taught 40 French children a very complicated song for their end of year show. None of these children could speak English when I started teaching them! - I am so proud of them!
