I want you to be as happy to learn as I am happy to teach. We work together as a team.I never forget that the main goal of learning a new language is communication. I respect the recommandation of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for languages) which describes what a learner at each level is supposed to be able to do in reading, listening, speaking and writing. Oral communication is a priority. It doesn't mean we ignore the grammar!

So that you can be completely independent, I also offer my self-learning program on the Internet which means you can continue to learn and train anywhere, whenever you want.

Maybe you want to improve a second language, prepare for language examinations, meet professional job requirements, or simply to enhance your personal life? Whatever your reasons are, I know that enjoying a lesson leads to greater retention and more success for everyone.

About Me:
I graduated with a Masters in Language Sciences from the Stendhal University of Grenoble, specialising in French as a foreign language. As an independant teacher, I collaborate with the language schools of the region, especially in Chamonix and Megève, but I have my own small structure wich is called Olala. I am also a published author and was the creator and managing editor of a magazine for teenagers. I have been living in Chamonix since 1993, after moving here from Paris, two years after the release of my fisrt book Crash au mont Blanc, which demanded extensive research and brought me into close contact with the local population of Chamonix valley. SInce then, I have continued to work on the identity of the valley. A very rich and fascinating story ... made by people coming from all over the world: mountaineers, scientists, businessmen, engineers, writers, painters, moviemakers, musicians... all inspired by the tallest mountain in Europe.

So now you know: I teach and write...

Corcelle, Burgundy
Courses / Programs
Corcelle offers one-to-one total immersion in our language school in Southern Burgundy in eastern France. Our residential courses are highly intensive programs for professionals, business people, executives, diplomats and other highly motivated adults. The one-to-one course is without doubt the most effective way of learning a language. Only this formula allows a programme to be individually tailored to the particular needs and potential of each learner.

Residential courses offer the optimum learning environment: free from distraction, students can devote themselves fully to the acquisition and practice of French: students are involved with French throughout their stay. They work on developing their language skills every minute of the day: during their individual lessons with their trainers, over meals with other participants and teachers, at coffee-breaks, situational lessons or just a quiet discussion in the library.
The programme consists of 50 + contact hours per week, (including all meals - breakfast, lunch and dinner) - with a teacher. It is full-time with constant interaction and language development. A teaching team of 3 to 4 teachers is allocated to each student. A daily revision recording prepared by the teachers is included in the program and copied on CD for further use after the course.

- adapt quickly and effectively to the specific needs of each student.

We favour the development of everyday French, with a focus on oral expression and comprehension. This is supported with a progressive foundation of grammar, and we employ a variety of teaching methods to ensure our students will be able to use their language skills in a range of environments.
