About Megan
I spent years building language learning software before shifting into private teaching, and across thirteen years of combined tech and teaching work I have guided approximately two hundred ten students. My background gives me an unusually systematic, data-driven understanding of how French actually gets learned efficiently, insight built directly from working with real learning data at scale. I work particularly well with analytically minded students who appreciate seeing concrete evidence of their own progress rather than vague verbal reassurance alone. My teaching style is structured and precise, though genuinely warm underneath the data, since I believe measurement should support motivation rather than replace real human connection entirely. I have helped numerous students achieve specific, measurable fluency goals, tracking real progress data throughout our work together rather than relying on subjective impression alone. Students consistently tell me they appreciate actually seeing their own improvement charted clearly, rather than simply being told vaguely that they're doing well. My studio blends genuine technical rigor with real personal attention, appealing particularly to students who like understanding exactly why a method works. After thirteen years combining technology and teaching, I remain genuinely excited about how thoughtfully applied data accelerates real French learning outcomes for serious students.

I built language learning software before moving into private teaching, so I approach every lesson like a system to be optimised, not a loosely improvised conversation. I begin with a detailed skills assessment across grammar, vocabulary, listening, and speaking, generating a genuine baseline I can measure real progress against over time. Vocabulary is prioritised using frequency data, teaching the most commonly used French words first, since I've seen the actual usage statistics behind which words matter most practically. I track every student's error patterns systematically, identifying recurring mistakes precisely rather than correcting randomly whatever happens to come up in a given lesson. Spaced repetition scheduling determines exactly when vocabulary gets reviewed, based on genuine memory research rather than arbitrary, inconsistent repetition happening by chance alone. I set specific, measurable milestones each month, and I review actual data with students regularly, showing concrete evidence of improvement rather than vague general impressions. Listening practice uses graded, leveled content matched precisely to a student's current measured ability, adjusting systematically as their skills genuinely improve over time. I treat mistakes as data points, not failures, logging patterns methodically to adjust the following lesson's focus with real precision. Every lesson stays structured, measurable, and genuinely evidence-based, because language learning responds extremely well to real systematic tracking.
