Teacher

Alice, a digital consultant, was born in Paris and grew up in the suburb of Boulogne. She graduated from top schools in France and in Canada, and expanded her horizons by living in Singapore and in Hong Kong.
A passionate polyglot, she has studied English, German, Spanish, Chinese, Cantonese, Teochew, and Korean, and loves weaving her multilingual perspective into her teaching.
Always up for a good time, Alice brings a cheerful vibe, slipping in jokes to make sure everyone’s having fun while learning (and if you’re lucky she will be sneaking some food/drinks for the class to share).
Outside the classroom, Alice enjoys cooking (and of course eating!), thrives in the fashion world, loves dancing beyond the scene and discovers new adventures with her close circle - just don’t ask her to get on a rollercoaster!

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!
