About Me

Hello everyone!

My name is Gil, I come from Geneva, Switzerland. I've been teaching French here on Verbling since 2016 and travelling around the world since 2014.

I am frequently immersed in different cultures, I always adapt and find ways to communicate. This helps me to put myself in my student's shoes and anticipate their difficulties.

My teaching techniques involve either a structured or a flexible approach depending on your particular needs and goals.

The satisfaction of helping others improve their quality of life either by getting a new job, passing a French exam, building the courage to start a life in a different country or simply feeling confident when speaking in French is priceless to me.

I would be very happy to meet you and help you in your French journey wherever it may lead us !

Read some of my student's reviews, send me a message if you have any questions and maybe book a trial lesson !

“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”

Hope to hear from you soon,

Gil

My trial lessons

During the first part of my trial lessons, I get to know my student. During the second part I listen carefully to his/her goals and propose a way of reaching them. Depending on the remaining time, we do trial exercises and a little feedback on the trial lesson.
