Hello and bonjour! I am a passionate and dedicated French teacher with over 4 years of experience teaching French as a foreign language to students of various age groups and academic levels. I strive to make French engaging and accessible through dynamic, inquiry-based, and student-centered teaching methods. I hold the DELF B2 certification, and I am also qualified in TEF and TCF, which allows me to teach and assess French language proficiency effectively. I am certified in PRoFLE+ (Professionnalisation en Français Langue Étrangère Plus), an internationally recognized program developed by the French Ministry of Education and France Éducation International for training teachers of French as a foreign language. Additionally, I am IBEC certified by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO), enabling me to apply IB values and methodologies in the classroom. I have taught French under various educational frameworks, including the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP), and Diploma Programme (DP), as well as the Cambridge IGCSE, American, and CBSE curricula. This multi-curricular experience allows me to adapt my teaching to meet diverse academic goals and learning styles. My lessons focus on building all four core language skills—listening, speaking, reading, and writing—through interactive strategies like role-plays, games, cultural exploration, multimedia content, and real-life scenarios. I believe that a positive and inclusive environment motivates learners to communicate with confidence and curiosity. I am fluent in French, English, and Hindi, and I am comfortable teaching in all three languages, depending on students' needs. This trilingual ability is particularly helpful in breaking down language barriers, especially for beginners or younger learners. Throughout my teaching journey, I have worked with students from a wide range of cultural and linguistic backgrounds. I continuously upgrade my teaching skills through training and professional development to ensure I deliver the best learning experience. My mission is not just to teach the French language but also to spark a lifelong love for Francophone culture, values, and global citizenship in every student I meet.
