Anne B.
Private tutor in Berlin, Germany
Education
I'm a native french speaker, and I have a Master degree in French modern literature as well as a Master degree in pedagogy. I also obtained the CAPES (the official French exam to become a teacher).
Experience
I am passionate about pedagogy and sharing knowledge. I used to be a French teacher for teenagers in French's National Education but decided to expand my working field to teaching French as a foreign language, for both adults and teenagers, and it turned out to be a very interesting new approach.

Hobbies
I'm a caring and enthusiastic teacher, you're more than welcome to try a first course with me, and see if it suits you ! As I'm myself learning German, I understand the struggles you face when you learn a new language. I know that it is sometimes hard to dive into this new world and how much a safe atmosphere is important when it comes to make this challenge self-rewarding and stay motivated. In this perspective, autonomy is key, and it's one of my goals as a teacher. That's why, after a first meeting, we'll define together your needs and personal objectives, so that I can adapt my lessons. We'll answer two important questions : what goals do you want to achieve (focus on oral skills, pass an exam, understand verbs’ conjugation...) and how do you personally find motivation ? Positive emotions and motivation help us memorize better, like repetition. So, depending on which learner you are, we can resort to games, flash-cards, mind-maps, creative activities so as to solicit imagination and have fun... You can propose themes, so that I build courses or workshops that would help you learning by working on subjects you're interested in. We’ll also talk about French culture, you might discover some strange facts about us (frog eaters…). And you’re more than welcome to share about your culture ! And lastly, we'll try to speak French as much as possible. No worries if you're not comfortable with it, you will soon come to realize that you can communicate no matter your level. If needed, we can resort to German (that I do not speak fluently, it might be fun) or English (that I speak fluently). I invite you to send me a message to establish a first contact, and we will decide together on the ideal time for a free trial lesson. A bientôt !
