Hi every one/ my name is Philippe and I have been teaching French as a Foreign Language during 7 years for different language schools (E.F.,International House etc...）to students of all over the world （but mainly from China, Japan, U.S.. Germany and Brazil）
I have a PhD in Philosophy and a degree of trainer in French as a Foreign Language
As an experienced teacher I can adjust to the pace of learning of students because I know the difficulties to study a foreign language （I am studying Japanese too）
My method of teaching is based upon the requisite skills for communicating in the daily situations one encounter in France and at the office
Besides I can teach academic French for the students of advanced level and help them to have a better understanding of French writers and poets
Usually I start my lesson by asking the student to make an oral presentation of the books, mangas or movies they like to help them getting confidence in talking
Between the lessons I give them some grammar quizzes and if they want a short written homework about the topic they like
I do not separate language and culture so that I give as much explanation as possible of how the French people view the world and behave according their frame of reference
