  • I have a passion for the promotion of professional development through training and demonstrated in my work experience.

About Me

Not only am I fluent in French and English, but I have worked simultaneously in both languages for fifteen years. My experience includes teaching French to business clients (in New York) and college students (in New Jersey) and also teaching English (English as a Second Language) to government officers and other professionals in the private and public sector overseas. I love teaching, especially languages. I use participatory methods that encourage students to communicate effectively in the target language. I am proud of my achievements and hope to continue to instill the love of languages to my students. I am a French native speaker; I've studied in Geneva (Switzerland) and France. I have a French Baccalaureate because all my primary and high school were done in the French language. We speak French at home. I have a Standard French accent. I hold 2 certificates in teaching English: TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and TBE (Teaching Business English).

Q&A with Laurette

My goal is that each student comes out of my class with the ability to communicate in the target language in the most realistic manner. It is not just about theory; more importantly, it's about getting to practice speaking in the target language, listening to the target language (French or English), and being able to demonstrate concrete results. I am only concerned about students demonstrating their knowledge in the most concrete manner. My everyday goal is that my student becomes proficient at the end of the lesson.
