Hi, I'm Rachel and I'm a French tutor living in Rome, Italy. Teaching and creating educational material is what I love to do. Mother of 3 children, I homeschool them while developing some fun teaching resources and methods for my children and also for sharing to other teachers and students. After obtaining a Baccalaureat in literature, I studied Music and Art History for 3 years in the university of Paris-Sorbone. As well as continuing music studies at the conservatory. I taught music for 3 years in a music school and in primary schools before accepting a job as a teacher in an elementary school in Guinea(Africa) for an humanitarian organization . I taught for 4 years, first grade and 2 grade. I also participated in educational programs in Ukraine. Since the last 10 years I homeschool my children in French, gaining experience in teaching levels from kindergarten to grade 6. At the same time I also give private lessons in French via Online. I like to adapt my method of teaching according to the need of my students and to their way of learning and retaining the best. For children, my favorite approach is using games, stories, rhymes, activities and visuals that will allow the child to use their five senses. For adults I privilege the conversational method , and full immersion, keeping in mind that sometimes we learn better knowing the “why’s and how’s” of a language and for that reason getting deeper into spelling and grammar rules. Without forgetting to have fun of course!
