About Nadia
Hello,
My name is Nadia, and I currently live in Australia in a beautiful village called Cockatoo. I’ve traveled a lot and lived in four different countries. I’ve held various jobs related to linguistics, but teaching French is what I love the most, so here I am!
I’ve taught French to all ages and levels (starting with my nephew and niece, who are now fluent, and most recently, Australian army officers and a dyslexic adult moving to France - he is nailing it!).
I have over 30 years of experience teaching French as a foreign language. I learned it myself as a child and teenager, so I understand how scary it is for you to speak! I have a unique perspective that native speakers don’t have, while still achieving a level of proficiency comparable to theirs. In fact, my colleagues at the Alliance Française in Melbourne used to joke that on the scale from A1 to C2, I was at C3.
I hold two Master’s degrees in French as Foreign Language.
I lived, studied, and worked in France in applied linguistics and semantics and IT for 15 years.
Since I fell in love with Silent Way approach, I took the training, started applying it and never looked back. My students become so chatty that I even occasionally have to stop them to give a chance to another one to speak :)

As a qualified and experienced tutor, I use Silent Way (and infinite patience!) to kick-start your speaking.
Specialized in teenagers and adults, I taught French in multiple schools including Alliance Française of Melbourne.
You’ll talk about what interests you, with ease, and I’ll help you do it in correct French via continuous feedback. During 1h lesson, you (not me!) will speak most of the lesson to help you reach fluency faster than most approaches.
You’ll learn joyfully, and from the very start, with the quality that will allow you to go as far as you wish. You’ll never have to repeat yourself because a French speaker didn’t understand you.
I’ll adapt to your goals and timeline, whether it’s for a DELF, DALF, VCE, TCF, moving to France or another French speaking country, or simply a tourist trip where you want to chat with the locals!

Nadia is a very passionate and kind French teacher. She understands the learner's perspective and incorporates this into her teaching style. She places a big emphasis on pronunciation, which is super important for building a French language foundation. While she teaches using specific teaching styles, she is able to easily recognize how people learn and works to build upon their strengths. Highly recommend.
Nadia is a fantastic teacher who will have you speaking French in no time! I studied with her for approximately 2–3 months, and her approach is both unique and highly effective. She tailors each lesson to the learner’s pace and uptake, with a strong focus on pronunciation and grammar, ensuring you build a solid and confident foundation.
What truly sets Nadia apart is her warm, friendly, and patient teaching style. She creates a supportive learning environment that makes you feel comfortable speaking from day one. Her lessons are thoughtfully backed by insights from behavioural science and psychology, which are seamlessly woven into her teaching methods. It was brilliant not only to learn French with her, but also to observe and appreciate the depth and intention behind her approach.
I would highly recommend Nadia to anyone looking to make real progress in French in an encouraging and professional setting.Nadia was an incredible tutor and inspiration for my daughter, Amelie. Nadia not only taught French, but inspired a love for the language and her passion for it is infectious. At all times, Nadia was flexible in her approach and responsive to her students needs. Strongly recommend Nadia to any person looking to learn and embrace French !
