Since 2019, I’ve been working as a freelance teacher, looking for ways to bring my classroom experience into podcasts that are educational, practical, and enjoyable.

Through my podcasts, my goal is to help learners make real progress in French — whether that’s through Cooking and Conversation, or my new podcast focused on spoken French and the new GCSE French speaking preparation for 2026.
