About VANDA F.

Hello Students, my name is Vanda.
Languages have always had an important role in my life. Speaking different languages such as French, my native language, but also Italian, English, Dutch and notions of German as well as more recently Spanish, has given me so many opportunities. It's helped me experience so many beautiful moments with people, everywhere in the world.
I would like to share this passion with you and help you to learn French, with fun and no stress.
I will adapt the lessons to your goals and to your needs.
I am very flexible concerning the lessons' days or hours and I can be available at night or during the weekend if you are working or at school during the day.

Vanda is amazing! My daughter is in 1st grade in a French Immersion school, and we hired her to assist with the transition to distance learning. She is a great resource, and provides my daughter with fun educational activities. Also, my daughter is having fun conversing with her in French, which is delightful to see.

Vanda has been one of the best French instructors I have had the pleasure of taking lessons with. Speaking English as my primary language, I found it difficult to understand the structure and syntax of French. Even so, where I most struggled was in pronouncing words. It was very difficult for me to speak clear enough so that nuanced distinctions could be heard in the words and phrases I attempted to pronounce. One she assessed where I struggled the most, Vanda patiently and diligently worked with me as to help me with my problems. I am proud to say that today I can have almost casual conversations with native French speakers and I know that I am understood because of the time Vanda dedicated to me. I would definitely recommend her if you want to learn French, or if you have a little bit of knowledge and are attempting to expand and refine your skills.

A friend of mine and myself used to read French stories to a group of kids in a beautiful park. After reading, we always finished our lessons by crafting an item related to the story, with all instructions still given in French. The goal was to practice French with the kids and correct the mistakes they made while speaking it. It was a great learning experience for the children, and we teachers had a lot of fun as well!
