About Me
italki teacher since Apr 21, 2020Interest topicFoodFilms & TV SeriesTravelReadingBusiness & Finance
Bonjour!
Happy to make your acquaintance.
My name is François.
I was born in Canada and I have worked in six countries (Spain, Monaco, Hungary, Mexico, China and Italy). I love to meet and speak with individuals from around the world.
For the last 24 years I have worked as a professional trader and I have also assisted numerous companies, internationally.
I am fully bilingual (French & English) and I have a good working knowledge of Spanish.
In 2017 I was hired as a French teacher by a university in Spain.
Since then I have given French & English courses in person and remotely, on Italki.
I'm currently in Antigua (Caribbean) until Sept. 21, 2024. If not in Antigua, I'm in Montreal.Me as a Teacher
I am patient and flexible.
I can customize the content of the lessons in order to take into account your situation,
level of understanding, goals and timeline.
I usually focus on conversational skills but I can assist you with all areas of the French language.
I use a teaching method that I have developed over the years, which can be used in order to
increase the vocabulary, and fine-tune the French pronunciation.
During a lesson, I explain key grammatical concepts as well as expressions
used in various French-speaking countries.
This teaching method is focused on speeding up the learning process,
while respecting the pace of each student.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are focused on assisting you achieve your goals, whether you are learning French for personal or academic or professional reasons.
I have assisted doctors, engineers, architects, students, retirees, researchers, linguists, unemployed individuals who wish to reorient themselves, government employees, individuals and companies, etc.
If you or your company needs assistance, I can provide customised lessons based on your specific needs.
Note about availability:
If there are days and times which suit you and you don't see those options
in my Italki calendar, feel free to send me a message.
On most weeks, I can probably accommodate you.My teaching material

Francois was very patient and kind. He asked me questions about my language level and how I wanted to learn and based the lesson off of that. I felt very calm during his session as he went over the material at a rate I could understand. If you're a beginner, I would highly recommend him!

François was a great teacher and I had a great first lesson! I started self-learning French 1 month ago, and I can already see the value of having a tutor. I hope to progress further with my French! A la prochaine leçon!!
