    About Brigitte W.

    I graduated from Seattle Pacific University with two degrees in European Studies and Romance Languages. My studies also include time spent at the University of Salamanca in Spain, the American University of Paris, and John Cabot University in Rome. I also have a minor degree in History. I spent one year working as an English composition and French tutor in the United States for two middle school students. In 2010, I moved to South Korea to teach English. I spent about four years teaching elementary and middle school students in after-school English academies. My students ranged from very beginning to upper-intermediate levels of English. I also earned my TESOL certificate from the American TESOL Institute in Thailand. After leaving South Korea, I worked as an English camp counsellor in Italy and Wales for Italian elementary and middle school students. Since moving to France, I have mostly taught adults in a professional setting. My courses have focused on grammar, vocabulary, conversation, business English, and test preparation. I have experience preparing students for the BULATS exams and the TOEIC. I have taught all kinds of classes over the past ten years, from reading activities with children to more advanced discussion topics with teenagers and professional English with adults.
