Is your child falling behind in French at school? Would you like them to learn the language fluently to open doors for their future? Do you think they just need extra help to flourish in a bilingual country? I am a French Canadian who was raised bilingual. I have a linguistic teaching certificate and am very experienced at Montessori style education, since I used to run a Montessori home daycare. I make professional lesson plans based on the custom needs of each student. I am here to offer my services as a quality, experienced French tutor. I can work with students of all ages, and even with adults wishing to obtain the bilingual experience in our beautiful country. I am a very patient, thorough and effective tutor who takes the positive reinforcement approach I do not believe in reproaching students for mistake because they are there to be learned from. I’m a highly compassionate person and very experienced in linguistics. I took a BA in Psychology, and am starting my masters in counselling psychology online next year. It is online therefore my time is flexible for the foreseeable future.

I have worked with children and youth in a variety of positions and settings for over 20 years. For 5 years in Toronto, I had a part time job as a French tutor for a family of 5. They were conversing in French fluently in the long run. I was raised bilingual in French and English. I am fluently French Canadian. I have impeccable linguistic abilities. I have obtained a second language teaching certificate and taught a someone now working as a French teacher with the school systems the language in little under 3 months.

Childcare provider
I have worked with children and youth of all ages since I was old enough to obtain my babysitting certificate. I have a drivers license with a clean driving record, a vulnerable sector police clearance, have CPR/ First Aid/ AED training every year for the 5 years I was working in the daycare on York university’s campus. I have volunteered my time at the daycare at Pathstone mental health (Branscomb centre on Louth now.) I opened my own private home daycare a few years back and only had to close down due to a medical emergency. I have minimal hours looking after a set of twin each week for nearly 6 years. I have watched them grow and flourish since they were infants and they are 6 years old now. One of the twins has Down’s syndrome and I have a lot of experience with children with differing needs. I learned basic sign language for him, and his twin sister is beginning to speak French with me in recent months. I work very well with children and youth of all ages. My experience is extensive and I always bring my best work to the table.
