About Isabel
I am a French business professional with 25+ years of experience in international business, business development, strategy, marketing and communication.
Throughout my career, I have worked across the private sector, government and nonprofit organizations, supporting executives, entrepreneurs and organizations in complex and international environments.
As a native French speaker, I bring much more than language knowledge to my sessions. I understand how professionals communicate, negotiate, present ideas, build relationships and navigate cultural differences in real business situations.
I am passionate about helping people gain confidence and feel comfortable communicating in French — without being afraid of making mistakes.

My approach is simple: no generic French lessons.
I help professionals communicate in French with greater confidence, clarity and impact in real business situations.
Each session is personalized around your professional goals, industry and current level. We can work directly from situations you are facing: meetings, negotiations, presentations, job interviews, pitches, emails, strategic conversations or business trips.
A typical session combines practical Business French, professional vocabulary, conversation and role-play, with immediate feedback on pronunciation, phrasing, cultural nuances and communication style.
What sets my approach apart is my 25+ years of professional experience in international business, business development, strategy, marketing and communication, across private-sector, government and nonprofit environments. I understand the realities of professional communication because I have experienced them myself.
My coaching is particularly suited to executives, managers, entrepreneurs, consultants and international professionals who work — or are preparing to work — with French-speaking clients, teams, partners or markets.
Whether you need ongoing coaching or intensive preparation for an important professional situation, we will focus on one objective: helping you communicate effectively, confidently and strategically in French.

Working with Isabel is much more than improving your French. She quickly understands your professional context, your challenges and what you actually need to achieve.
She is incredibly adaptable, practical and results-oriented.
Whar really sets her apart is that she goes beyond what is expected: she prepares you, challenges you when necessary and gives you the confidence to handle real professional situations.
She is warm, energetic and easy to work with, while remaining extremely professional and demanding about the quality of the work.Isabel brings something quite rare to Business French coaching: she understands both the language and the business behind the conversation. With more than 25 years of professional experience, she knows what is at stake in a meeting, a negotiation or an important presentation. She is sharp, pragmatic and highly adaptable, and has a remarkable ability to identify what really matters and focus on it. She combines strong business acumen with excellent communication skills and a very engaging personality. I would particularly recommend Isabel to executives and professionals who need more than a French teacher — they need someone who understands their world and can help them perform effectively in it.
I am a student in business and Isabel has a wonderful way of making French feel accessible and enjoyable. She is patient, encouraging, dynamic and always finds a different way to explain something when you don’t understand it the first time. What I particularly appreciated was her ability to build my confidence and get me speaking without worrying about making mistakes. Her sessions are engaging, practical and often fun — you learn without feeling like you are in a traditional classroom. I highly recommend her!
