Marie O.

Hello, I'm Marie.

Originally French, I lived in the United Kingdom for over 30 years, where I studied law for four years at the Open University and worked in administration and marketing.

This dual cultural background gives me a deep understanding of the linguistic and cultural challenges faced by French speakers who want to speak English with confidence.

Over the years, I've noticed one essential truth: those who make the most progress are not those who memorise the most rules, but those who dare to speak.

That's precisely where I come in.

I help ambitious professionals and students develop natural, fluent, and confident spoken English; whether for meetings, presentations, training sessions, exams, or everyday conversations.

We work on clarity, speech structure, and the ability to express yourself with assurance, even under pressure.

What I offer:

- Lessons fully tailored to your personal or professional goals

- Intensive spoken English training

- Real-life practice scenarios (meetings, interviews, training sessions, professional exchanges…)

- Short, practical exercises you can apply straight away

- A relaxed atmosphere where mistakes are welcome

- Strategic bilingual support when needed

My approach is dynamic, structured, and results-driven. We work at your own pace, with regular reviews to consolidate what you've learned and ensure lasting progress.

Whether you want to improve your professional English, prepare for a demanding exam, or simply speak more naturally and confidently, I'll guide you step by step until English becomes a language in which you truly feel at ease.

Book a trial lesson and let's build your confidence in English together.

See you soon,

Marie

I am a certified English teacher (LearnZone Language Teaching Certificate) and I support students and professionals in developing clear, structured, and confident communication in English.

Beyond general English, I regularly work with professionals who have specific needs: preparing and delivering training sessions in English, public speaking in professional settings, meetings, interviews, or day-to-day communication at work.

I have notably worked with:

- A professional who needed to deliver first aid training in English

- A marketing and IT project manager looking to feel more at ease in international meetings and exchanges

- A finance professional seeking to communicate with greater precision and fluency

- Students preparing for exams requiring the analysis and discussion of current affairs articles

- Learners who simply wanted to feel confident enough to speak and hold a natural conversation in English

Thanks to my four years of law studies with The Open University and over ten years of experience in institutional and legal environments, I also have a solid command of Legal English. I help my students understand specialist documents, expand their professional vocabulary, and structure their arguments with precision.

As a French speaker who lived in the United Kingdom for over 30 years, I have a thorough understanding of the specific challenges faced by French learners, and I help them move past the fear of speaking so they can express themselves naturally and confidently.

My lessons are fully personalised. I prioritise:

Intensive oral practice

Strategic rephrasing

Speech structuring

A demanding yet supportive environment

My goal is simple: to enable you to speak English with clarity, confidence, and independence; whether in a demanding professional context or in everyday conversation.

Book a trial lesson and let's take the time to analyse your level together, your needs, and the real-life situations in which you'd like to feel more confident in English.

From our very first session, you will be encouraged to speak. We will identify your strengths, the areas for improvement, and define a clear working method tailored to your goals.

Whether you are preparing a presentation, an exam, a career move, or simply want to become more fluent in spoken English, I will support you with structure, care, and high expectations.

My role is to help you overcome your blocks and develop natural, clear, and confident communication, in a safe environment where you can progress at your own pace.

Let's take the first step together towards an English you'll use with confidence.
