Our French team: teacher and partners

In 2003, I decided to leave the Parisian turmoil life and my tough legal job, for the North American great outdoors. I was able to breathe!

Life and happy encounters lead me to Ottawa where, one of the oldest and most highly respected language schools in Canada, Interlangues Language School, welcomed me and gave me the opportunity to teach French to English speaking civil servants and high-ranking officials.

Immediately, I was seized by a passion for teaching French as a second language. The experience, is even more rewarding in this multicultural country. I taught, I learned, I evolved, I experienced this intercultural world. It's a permanent trip I wished to go on.

Back in France, in 2007, and back to study. I wanted to strengthen my professional savoir-faire so I gained my Language Science Master's degree in Français Langue Etrangère. Meanwhile, I renovated an old house in Fabrezan to make my pied-à-terre which will finally be our little school.

In 2008, I joined the French teachers' team of Eurocentres at La Rochelle, an internationally renowned Swiss foundation that provides top quality language teaching.

With these experiences, I decided in 2014 to create Naturellement Français. My mission is to offer you my knowledge in an intimate setting in which communication and exchange are highlighted in order to ensure you a fast progression.

Naturellement Français would not be able to fulfill its duties without the involvement and the collaboration, direct or indirect, of various and precious local participants.

Our partners' involvement helps you better understand the French way of life and values, acquire know how to act when you meet French people, and reach your goal : to interact and communicate in real life situation.

Thus, we work with:

• Craftspeople who open their door while we visit;
• Small and local producers;
• Wine-growers’ cooperative or wine-makers who let us taste their wines and exchange about their passion;
• Generalist or specialist guides who can guide us during rambles and explain to us the fauna and flora, local legends, etc.
• Host family and service providers who offer accommodation;
• Restaurateurs or barkeepers who welcome you during your evening;
• The village of Fabrezan, the Aude department, the Languedoc-Roussillon (Occitanie-Pyrenean-Mediterranean) who support us with a range of activities we can be part of (festivals, exhibitions, open days, feria, bodegas, fleamarkets, tastings…);
• Environmental organizations that take care of our preserved landscapes.
