French Courses for Expats with Chann – Master French for Your Expat Life in France or Any French-Speaking Country
About me
I am originally from Brittany, a beautiful region in the west of France. Since my childhood, I’ve had a passion for languages and foreign cultures. At the age of 20, I moved to Paris to pursue a Master's degree in Intercultural Communication and Translation, then I gained enriching experiences in Spain and the UK. After working for 7 years in the field of university cooperation, including two years in Lima, Peru, I decided to specialize in Teaching French as a Foreign Language (FLE).
In 2023, I earned my degree in French Language Teaching (DAEFLE) and flew to Japan, where I taught French for 10 months. It was during this time that the idea of French with Chann was born—to help people like you, with an expat or study project in France, master French for daily life and gain a deep understanding of French culture.
