Joaquim French Learning Centre

My very first experience as a French teacher was in Montreal, Canada. After a teaching formation, I worked for the association Collège Frontière (language teaching association which has for objective to give people the skills and confidence they need to reach their potential and contribute to society). I was responsible for a class of 17 adult beginner students from the Chinese community. This was quite a challenge since only two of them were able to speak English! I had to use my creativity and to build very interactive and living classes. I think that this first experience had a big impact on my way to teach, notably my use of daily situations and examples. More recently, I worked as an online French teacher for the language school AE Multilingue, located in Peru. I was responsible for 8 adult students, also beginners. The objective was to guide them through the different steps of learning French while exploring various themes. This experience gave me the opportunity to develop my online teaching skills and to explore all the possibilities it offers.
