Who said learning a language was complicated?

All you have to do is…

  • Open Duolingo
  • Study every day
  • Talk to thin air
  • Write essays
  • Watch your shows without subtitles
  • Run a psycho-philosophical analysis of why it's hard to express yourself in another language
Portrait of Sacha

You already do all that? Well done!

You're committed. And, by the way, totally legitimate.

But maybe you're stuck, or you don't feel like you're making progress. Every word feels like a risk rather than a game, and you're mad at the Académie française and at croissants.

Imagining progress is good, but feeling your progress is better.

And you have to look back to see how far you've come.

My method is simple: I want us to think about what makes you want to learn. At the heart of your progress is a goal, a desire, a passion, a personal standard, and I want to guide you towards it by listening to you and keeping you motivated.

Shall we?
02My method

The method

It draws on my background in psychology and my language skills. I repeat the process in every class so your progress grows organically, like a tree.

01

I let you talk

It's the first step, so I can actively listen to your needs and what's holding you back.

02

I suggest

I build a study plan by priority, with activities that blend your interests, your daily life and your needs. Using every tool at my disposal: quizzes, mind maps, visual and dynamic corrections…

03 in every class

I adjust

Each class builds on the last. The programme evolves with you: you don't see your progress, you feel it.
