About Me
italki teacher since Jun 21, 2021Interest topicFoodReadingSports & FitnessEnvironment & NatureTravel
I'm kind and curious. I like to learn from others and by myself.
I like meeting people from different countries. I've been myself a foreign languages learner for a long time so I know full well the process.
I worked a decade in the hospitality industry, mainly in the concierge/guest service department in France, England, Argentina and Australia before turning into a french teacher because it means a lot to me to guide foreigners to learn my mother tongue and help them attaining their goals (recreational, pro, etc...). I trained through the Alliance Française school.
I also have strong interests in a wide range of topics (reading, philosophy, spirituality, gastronomy, hiking, swimming).Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I am completely involved and dedicated in my student's learning path. I strive for concrete and practical results as much as my students.
I try to get to know my students as best as I can so that I can provide lessons matching to their expectations.
I am patient, supportive and I give regular feedback with the aim of improving your french-language skillsMy lessons & teaching style
There is no rule of thumb when it comes to teaching as it highly depends on the teacher and on the learner.
However, you can be sure that in my courses, the atmosphere is relaxed, engaging and you'll learn a lot of things about french language and french culture.
That being said, there is also one thing that is super important, the langage-learning journey does not end right after our course, you'll have to some extent make the french language your friend, expose yourself to it a good amount of time to remain motivated and determined to reach your goals. But no worries !! I will guide you and provide you some materials and recommendations along the way.My teaching material

Valentin is awesome! I've been doing weekly lessons with him for the last two years, and my French has improved phenomenally during this time. He's a very kind and patient teacher, tailors the lessons to my needs and interests (I'm a musician that travels to France for work and sometimes need to learn specialized vocabulary etc), and he is always happy to answer questions or provide further explanation when a concept eludes me. Truly one of the best teachers I've ever studied with, in any subject. I highly recommend him!

Valentin is the best. After almost 150 lessons over the past year, my french has improved dramatically. Thanks to his help and guidance. Valentin is thoughtful and patient. He can discuss any topic and he is passionate about teaching. He continues to be an exceptional partner on the journey of learning a new language.
