About this Lister

Bonjour, je m'appelle Alysse and I have a passion for French and cultural exchange. This passion led me to teach the language in South and North America, in public and private classrooms to learners between the ages of 8 to 88 years old.

Combining my teaching expertise and my personal experiences in learning both Spanish and English as an adult, I created Your French Connection (YFC) – a company dedicated to welcoming individuals and groups who are passionate about traveling in francophone areas and want to feel confident using their French while traveling.

Your French Connection helps them to build confidence in their French language competences, while focusing on practicing and improving their listening and speaking skills in real-world contexts.
