Your teacher
Live the language, don’t just study it
I have learned, researched and lived in French and in English. I lived in France and Canada, completed a dual-degree doctorate between Brazil and France, and faced, first-hand, the daily life, the bureaucracy and the challenges of communicating in another culture. That is the experience I bring to every class: vocabulary people actually use, real-life situations and the confidence of someone who has been on the other side.
