My Approach
I explain the logic of French culture.
While specific cultural practices can vary between individuals and regions,
cultural values are much more stable and predictive of the interactions you may have
and can explain a wider range of behaviors.
So, I identify pillars of French culture, and then we explore what these can look like in real life.
Why Me
I'm an American expat who has lived in France since 2011.
I married a French person, and am raising children in France.
I speak fluent French.
Nice, but not unique.
What is unique about me is my ability to understand systems and extrapolate unspoken rules.
Knowing these rules is the key to cultural competency and efficiency in everyday interactions.
I'm a language nerd with a deep appreciation for the way cultural visions are crystallized in language.
Truly learning a language is learning another way to see the world: language is a filter.
I will help you understand the French filter...and more about your own.
Having a plurality of lenses gives you the flexibility you need to navigate a diverse world.
I'll give you essential tools for your French culture journey.
How can I help you?
