Our mission is to innovate in the teaching of foreign languages through our unique approach known as the O.P.A.H method: Oral, Personalized, Active and Human.
It’s more than just a way to learn a new language, it’s a revolution in teaching that encourages individuality, interaction, active participation and humanity.

The communicative approach is one of the main methodologies in language teaching. The method is based on the principle of communicative competence. To communicate is to act, to live! Live the language! Communication only makes sense in real action. Pedagogy must therefore no longer be based on stimulation and imaginary situations, but on the use of the target language in real society. A co-actional approach implies the joint realization of an action or a project, and tends towards a participative approach, rather than remaining confined to an individualistic perspective. In this participative action, the student no longer feels alone, and is freed up to engage naturally in learning the chosen language. Oral Grammar is presented in an inductive and implicit form, and the written word is present only as a support for oral expression. Personalized The course is based on the student’s abilities and the acquisition of lexicon goes from more concrete words. The focus is on the student’s interests, needs and abilities. Active Learning takes place through repetition, leading to the development of automatic responses to specific situations. The student plays a very active role, and the trainer assumes the role of facilitator, i.e. a mediator creating learning contexts that encourage the transposition of acquired knowledge. Didactic approaches always start with a fragmentary dialog situation, followed by repetition, memorization and exploitation of new situations, so that vocabulary is introduced gradually. Human The student’s language needs are taken into account, and each student is an active participant in his or her own learning. The benefits? The language is lively, uninhibiting and fun!
I’m 53 and the mother of a young adult.
If you were to ask my friends, they’d probably tell you that I’m a discreet but curious person, driven by the desire to discover others. For me, patience, communication and respect are the keys to a successful relationship.
Dynamic and sporty, I also love to travel. I’ve been lucky enough to spend a large part of my adult life abroad. London, Berlin, Bremen, Göttingen, Madrid and Rio de Janeiro made me the person I am today.
Born in Spain in 1995, I developed a passion for foreign languages at an early age.
Thanks to annual stays in Los Angeles, I’ve acquired a distinctive American accent. After attending French and English schools, I achieved a high level in English and Chinese, thanks in particular to two years spent in China back in 2015.
As an experienced teacher of English, Spanish and Chinese, I master the subtleties of language learning and can guide you to share this passion and make you feel at ease in your language of choice.
