Hi! ¡Hola! Bonjour !

My name is Aurélie Le Moine and I live in Portlaoise, Ireland with my husband. I grew up on a farm in Brittany, France and came to Ireland for a three-month work placement with Bank of Ireland to improve my English. That was over 20 years ago and I am still here! After working in business for a few years and giving French lessons part-time, I decided to become a fully qualified language teacher, specialising in French, Spanish and English.

Qualifications

• Professional Master of Education (Post-primary teaching in Ireland)

• International BA in French and Spanish (1st Class Hons from Maynooth University)

• Certified examiner for DELF and DALF exams in Alliance Française (renewed in 2023)

• DAEFLE (Teaching French as a Foreign Language – Alliance Française)

• CELTA 5 (Teaching English as a Foreign Language)

• I am Garda Vetted and registered with the Teaching Council. I am also a member of the French Teachers Association (AIPLF) and the Association of Teachers of Spanish (ATS Irlanda).

My Experience

I teach French (FLE, FOS), Spanish (ELE) and English (EFL) from casual conversation classes to exam preparation. I give private lessons in person and online to individuals and groups. I also have experience teaching in the business environment and have given in-house classes to groups and individuals. I have taught in the European Commission, Community Colleges and Public Libraries. I participated in the Leaving Cert exams and orals for the State Examinations Commission. I enjoy correcting Spanish mock exam papers every year.
