About your french tutor
Hello! I’m Sandra, a passionate French tutor dedicated to helping students unlock the beauty of the French language. Born in Venezuela to an Italian family, I’ve been immersed in diverse cultures throughout my life. I studied Business in France, where I developed a deep appreciation for the French language and its rich cultural heritage. Now, I reside in Madrid (Spain), and I love sharing my knowledge with students from around the world. I have been teaching for 4 years I have had more than 160 students. My teaching approach focuses on making learning enjoyable and tailored to your specific goals. Whether you’re preparing for travel, enhancing your career prospects, or simply seeking personal enrichment, I aim to create a supportive and engaging environment where you feel confident expressing yourself. I believe that mistakes are a natural part of learning, so I encourage you to embrace them as opportunities for growth. In our lessons, you can expect interactive activities and real-life scenarios that help build your speaking and comprehension skills. Let’s embark on this exciting journey together, where you’ll gain not only language skills but also a deeper understanding of French culture!
