Teacher

Born in Japan to Swiss parents, Gaetan grew up between Europe, Asia, and the United States. Passionate about languages, philosophy, and the arts, he initially worked as a designer and art director, specializing in virtual reality, product and event design. Today, he has chosen to share his language and culture by becoming a French teacher. Curious and always seeking new ideas, he enjoys lively debates over coffee as much as reading classic literature.

You're Débutant, if...

You just took our Intro to French course. Or, you took high school French… but don’t remember much.

You can say “Je m’appelle…”, but that’s about it!

You have no idea when to use le, la, or li (oh wait, we made that last one up).

You’ve spent some time in a French-speaking country but never managed to pick up more than a couple of words.

Or maybe you live or work with a French speaker, and you’re dying to know what they’re saying!
