WHO AM I ?
Avril
I have been teaching French to foreigners for the last 18 years. After working for 7 years with European Institutions staff and interpreters, I moved back to Provence and decided that I wanted to be a link between foreign people and my culture and territory. I like to meet people and learn their culture. I like games, gastronomy, nature, baking, reading books and play the famous “Pétanque”, but most of all, I love the French language, its pitfalls, its treasures, and mysteries! I will find a way to build a bridge between your language and mine!
