About Thalia
My teaching approach is highly interactive and built around clear, confident speaking. I help students develop strong pronunciation through focused articulation drills, listening practice, and sound-by-sound correction. We work on beginner dialogues that feel natural and practical—perfect for everyday conversations and real-world use. I also explore regional variations in French, so learners can understand and adapt to different accents and expressions. My lessons are structured yet flexible, always centered around your goals and comfort level. I break down complex ideas into simple steps, making the language easier to follow and use. This is especially helpful for learners revisiting their roots or preparing for travel. Together, we’ll build a solid foundation—starting from sounds and moving toward full sentences with flow and confidence. I provide lots of support, encouragement, and real-time feedback. Whether you’re just beginning or returning to French after a break, I’ll guide you gently and consistently. With the right practice, clear French becomes possible for everyone.

I'm a French tutor with over 9 years of experience and a PhD in Quebecois Literature and Culture. My greatest joy comes from teaching children aged 8 to 14, helping them fall in love with the French language through creativity and play. I specialize in using dramatic play, improvisation, and script reading to bring French to life. Whether we’re acting out scenes or creating our own characters, every lesson is filled with laughter, movement, and imagination.
I focus on building a strong foundation in vocabulary, pronunciation, and simple grammar—always in fun and memorable ways. Through performance, children naturally absorb sentence structure, express themselves confidently, and develop a real connection to the language. My lessons are energetic, engaging, and full of opportunities for self-expression. I believe learning French should be as joyful as putting on a play.
