About Dany
- What kind of experience do you have?
I spent 12 years teaching French for a top language school in London. I was appointed Head of French in 1996 but left as a result of the company reorganisation in 2001 I taught a wide range of clients including executives from top listed companies and high civil servants from central government and other departments. I also delivered training seminars to teachers of foreign languages in London and Luxembourg. Since 2001 I have been working as a tutor and consultant mostly with the Civil Service but I also have had a wide range of private clients coming from various backgrounds, city professionals, school children, sportsmen, French property owners, students looking to enter the Ecole de l'Europe in Belgium or preparing the European Union Concours...

No not right now but am prepared to get one should it be required

I have trained with Linguarama International Language School in 1988 in London. I completed their training course prior to being hired and continued to attend internal training courses on a yearly basis with them until my departure.

- Tell me about some of your current students.
Throughout my career, I have met some incredible people coming from a wide range of backgrounds. I have made many friends amongst them and most of all I have myself learnt a great deal. Right now, I have an interesting range of students, amongst them a professional sportsman who is a keen linguist, a retired lady wishing to communicate in French when she goes to her house in France, a barrister who is passionate about politics and international affairs, a group of advanced learners who study classic and modern literature, a banker who travels to Paris on a weekly basis for work, a pensioner who thought he could never master a foreign language, some very motivated and creative school children and more! It's a diverse and very interesting group of individuals.
