« Learning a foreign language is not only about knowing how you could speak fluently that language but it allows you to discover a new world and challenge yourself. » 

Background :  

• French Native Speaker
• Cantonese and English Speaker (fluently)
• Doctor of Chiropractic from IFEC Toulouse.

Experience : 

• Volunteer French teacher for international students and foreign adults in France.

I was born and raised in French Guiana to Chinese immigrated parents. When I was a child, I remembered how difficult it was to learn Chinese and French at the same time but I also remembered how funny and  addictive it can be.  

There is a quote I keep in my mind when I am learning a new language: « Don't be afraid of making mistakes when you are speaking a new language because that is the first step to success » 

Learning a foreign language is the best way to discover people and culture but most importantly it allows  you to challenge yourself and go out of your comfort zone.  

As I want to challenge myself and explore a new experience, I jump to a country for being in immersion with both my cultures and opening a new chapter for myself.  

I am convinced that everyone has the potential to learn and I hope my teaching techniques could help my students find out how speaking French is not as difficult as they think.
