About me
Cathy is a Professional Neurolanguage Coach and teacher trainer who helps language learners understand how their brain learns best and use that knowledge to design the best study plan possible. She works with learners who have been discouraged by traditional classroom methods, or who simply don't have time for that, and want a more efficient, brain-friendly approach to language learning. She works mainly with people learning French but also supports Francophones who need a confidence boost in English.
Born and raised in France, she lives in Montreal, Canada but works exclusively online with learners all over the world.
Cathy has supported learners in passing exams, adapting to life in France and Quebec, and defining what “high-level” language mastery really means for them. She specializes in intermediate and advanced levels (B1+ and over). She also hosts My Polyglot Life en français, a podcast for advanced learners focused on effective learning strategies and francophone cultures.

I had been searching for a French teacher who could help me truly understand the language, and working with Cathy has been an outstanding experience! I had reached a point where I felt stuck in my learning, but Cathy helped me break through that barrier with her thoughtful and adaptive teaching approach.As a hands-on learner, I greatly appreciate how she takes the time to understand my individual learning style. Each week, she listens carefully to my needs and designs a customized lesson plan to support my progress. She’s also highly flexible—able to adjust her teaching methods in real time when something isn’t clicking, which makes every session productive and engaging.Cathy is professional, patient, and deeply committed to her students’ success. Thanks to her guidance, I’ve made significant strides in both my confidence and comprehension of French. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and effective French instructor.

Merci beaucoup, Cathy ! J'ai reçu aujourd'hui mon résultat positif à l'examen du DELF B1 ! Je suis ravie ! Grâce à Cathy, j'ai amélioré mes compétences rédactionnelles. Cathy sait exactement comment préparer rapidement l'examen. Cathy est très gentille, intelligente et patiente. Heureusement, j'avais deux mois devant moi. J'étais très hésitante. Je suis agréablement surprise d'avoir obtenu 70/100. Encore une fois, merci beaucoup, Cathy, pour ta patience. Je pense que ce n'était pas facile d'étudier avec moi. Mais je suis ravie de t'avoir rencontrée ! Je recommande à tous d'étudier le français avec Cathy, surtout à ceux qui préparent l'examen. Je suis sûre que vous réussirez avec Cathy !

J'ai commencé les cours de Cathy avec des attentes modérées. J'avais envie de progresser, mais avec un niveau intermédiaire-avancé, je n'étais pas sûr que les cours m'auraient beaucoup aidé.Très belle surprise donc quand j'ai vu les progrès que j'ai réalisés grâce aux cours. Cathy est à l'écoute, donne des conseils spécifiques, et reste compréhensive quand j'avais des empêchements.Pour toute personne prêtes à s'investir dans leur apprentissage du français, je recommande vivement le service que Cathy offre !

I worked with Cathy for two months (very lucky as she was just about to move to Japan!). Cathy is a very warm and kind teacher that creates a safe space for one to learn the (sometimes very challenging) French language. Besides being very knowledgable and full of resources to help me learning French, Cathy is very conscientious with following up the progress and checking on the learning expectations. I really valued my individuals sessions with Cathy and highly recommend her as a language coach! (Karen Viacava - Google review)
I really enjoyed my experience working with Cathy.She is a talented and attentive language teacher. Her abilities to adapt to my learning style and ADD (TDH en Français) was amazing and helped me navigate learning a foreign language. I highly recommend working with Cathy for learning a new language. (Emile Giroux - Google review)
I highly recommend Cathy as a French language coach. I have seen a great improvement in the year we worked together, our sessions were tremendously worthwhile. Crucially, she has expertise in language acquisition which allows her to give personalized, tailored lessons that address more than just grammar or vocabulary (though the grammar lessons were superb). She follows the lead of the student and has great recommendations. I looked forward to our lessons every week, and because of her I feel prepared and confident to make friends and integrate into French-speaking culture in my upcoming move to France. Thank you Cathy!
