About Pablo

I’m Pablo, French and Spanish. French is my mother tongue, and I was educated in the French school system throughout, from the Lycée franco-éthiopien in Addis Ababa to the Cité Scolaire Internationale de Lyon. Having grown up between two languages, I know from experience what it takes to feel truly at home in one, and which difficulties learners of French tend to meet.
I study at Sciences Po, with a minor in Latin America, alongside a law degree at the Sorbonne, and I’m currently on exchange at the University of Edinburgh. Six years of Latin and Ancient Greek gave me a solid grasp of grammar and of where words come from, which helps me explain the logic of French rather than just its rules.
For the past year, I’ve coached secondary school students preparing for demanding entrance exams. That experience taught me that every student gets stuck in a different place: for some it’s method, for others confidence or regularity. What I enjoy most is understanding where each student stands, then helping them move forward at their own pace and gain confidence, one lesson at a time.

I believe a language is learnt above all by talking and reading, so that is what my lessons are built on.
How a lesson works
Each session starts with conversation: about your week, the news, a film, whatever interests you. Then we work on a text chosen for your level, such as a news article, a short story or an extract from a novel. We read it together, discuss it, and use it to pick up new vocabulary and expressions. Grammar comes in when it is useful, explained simply and practised right away, never as a list of rules to memorise.
For every level and goal
Beginners: solid foundations, so you can speak from the very first lessons.
Secondary school students: comprehension, writing and oral practice for the GCSE, A-level or IB.
Adults: speaking confidence for a trip, a move to France or a professional project.
Exam prep: DELF and DALF certifications and oral tests, with mock exams and targeted feedback.
My approach
In our first session, I take the time to understand your goals and where you get stuck, then we build a plan together and adjust it as you progress. You will speak a lot, make mistakes freely, and gradually gain fluency and confidence.
Practical details
Online lessons, with flexible hours, including evenings and weekends.
If you have favourite French authors or shows, tell me and I’ll add a line about them, like the García Márquez and Pérez-Reverte one in the Spanish ad.
