About Sienna

Hello,
I'm Sienna, a master's student of French as second language, a primary-school teacher, and a language learner. I'm bilingual French-Australian, and I came to study and live in France at the age of 16. I recently graduated with two degrees in education and humanities.

I help students from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds gain confidence not only in French speaking, but in the language learning process itself. My students benefit from a deeply personalised approach, built on the alliance of their unique learning profile and goals. I specialise in pronunciation support for English and Spanish speaking learners.

Learning a foreign language gave me the opportunity to discover another country and enrich my studies twice in my life. The first time was when I moved to France to complete high school, and the second was during my university exchange in Argentina, followed by two years of living and studying in Spanish.

This convinced me of the power of teaching and studying foreign languages. I have since then taught students aged from 3 to 70, given more than 900 lessons, and built a personal resource library, fed over the years by what I most love about French culture and what resources best guide language learners.

- A degree in Sciences of Education means that I have a clear, widely-read, and educated teaching philosophy with a solid, scientific foundation backing methods.

- A degree in Humanities (Philosophy, Literature, Latin, History) means I have a close connection to many aspects of French culture and tradition.

Alongside my French lessons, I also teach English and Spanish up to proficiency, and I aspire to become a teacher in rural or humanitarian missions.

Teaching Experience :
I have taught over 50 students from different cultural, educational, and linguistic backgrounds. I value a communicative and practical approach, aiming for independence in real-life conversation and strong language-learning practices.

Children :
With over 7 years of experience teaching children and having loved each one of them, my classes respect children’s developmental learning stage and welcome their strengths. We learn through songs, traditional comptines, books, games, and projects.

As a teacher in French primary school, I taught English lessons from grades 1-6.
The challenge of teaching young children remotely and in big class groups encouraged me to become playfully innovative in order to capture my students' attention and interest.

My rate includes :
- 7/7 availability for questions, writing corrections, and coaching, with last-minute booking to accommodate students with family responsibilities
- personalised homework, set and corrected outside lesson time on request.
- consistent and regular written feedback
- an authentic relationship based on sharing of language and culture as a guiding thread

About the lesson

What to expect in every single lesson :
- detailed and real-time note-taking organising words, phrases, and pronunciation for conversational learners.
- a warm, patient approach that consistently reveals genuine interest in my students and their lives
- a fully prepared lesson plan guided by language targets while offering choice and flexibility to each student
- personalised course material (flashcards, game ressources, songs ,etc) and feedback for young learners to practice with their families.

Children :
I have over 7 years of experience teaching children and have loved each one of them. My classes respect children’s developmental learning stage and welcome their strengths. We learn through songs, traditional comptines, books, games, and projects.

My approach and philosophy :
I believe the role of a teacher is one of guidance and motivation, with an ethical engagement of dedication and responsibility. I take on the responsibility to each of my students to accompany their learning, through times of focus and discipline just as much as through those of doubt and confusion, of low motivation and high pressure. I do so through personalised and rich cultural resources, mindset coaching, flexible lesson plans, and a strong teacher-student relationship built on trust.

By providing both high support and high trust, I respect each student, fully believing in their potential. My lessons are always prepared, deeply personalised, and engaging

Perfect! We have worked with Sienna for the past 18 months, during which time she has taught both of my daughters, aged 13 and 11, at very different stages of their French language journey. My eldest studies advanced French, while my youngest is a beginner, and Sienna has demonstrated an exceptional ability to tailor her teaching style to meet their individual needs.

Sienna has built a wonderful rapport with both girls. She is fun, friendly, and brings positive energy to every lesson, which keeps them engaged and motivated to learn. She is also reliable and diligent, being well-prepared and demonstrating a genuine commitment to their progress.

Sienna puts together thoughtful and creative lessons. She sometime incorporates innovative learning methods, including songs, books, movies and other engaging activities to vary things up that make learning French enjoyable and effective. Beyond the classroom, Sienna often contacts us with recommendations for books, texts and other resources that will support the girls' studies and further develop their language skills.

Sienna is an outstanding teacher who is passionate about helping her students succeed. I could not recommend her highly enough. She has made a significant contribution to both girls' confidence and enjoyment of French, and we have greatly valued her support and dedication.

Sienna's response
I look forward to every lesson with Stephen's daughters, who I get to see every week for French lessons. They are always attentive, inquisitive, and disciplined, even when tired. I enjoy getting to know more and more about them, their interests and lives in Australia as their French improves.

I've never met anyone that's as passionate about teaching, learning, and education in general as Sienna. Her teaching method and her energy let you dive deep into the learning process and really enjoy it. I think the main reason why this is the case is that you can tell she's enjoying it as well.

I myself was impressed on the pace of the progress in my French, especially regarding my listening and my confidence speaking, I'm very happy I chose her :)

Highly recommend!! I employed Sienna for my son who was really struggling in his high-school french class. She proved to be a very skilful teacher with effective communication style. Within 10 weeks my son's marks had moved from a 'C' (around 50%) to a 'B' (over 75%). I couldn't be happier and my son is much more confident.
