Since 2012, I have taught in Morocco, France, and the United Arab Emirates, working with students of diverse backgrounds and abilities. I currently teach French and Spanish across the IB and IGCSE programmes and serve as an examiner for both international qualifications as well as the DELF examinations through L'Alliance Française.

As a Head of Languages and curriculum leader, I have extensive experience designing engaging lessons, preparing students for external examinations, and helping learners build confidence in speaking, listening, reading, and writing. I specialise in supporting students in IB MYP, DP French B (SL and HL), Language Acquisition courses, IGCSE French, and DELF preparation.

My teaching approach is personalised, supportive, and results-oriented. I adapt lessons to each student's needs, whether they require exam preparation, language reinforcement, conversation practice, homework support, or accelerated learning. I am passionate about helping students develop strong language skills while fostering a genuine appreciation for different cultures and languages.
