Bonjour, my name is Mina-Dominique POUTIER and I've been a language tutor in English and in "French As A Foreign Language" for more than 10 years.

After studying Linguistics and Psychology, I travelled abroad and lived a few years in the United-Kingdom, Germany, the USA and Spain. 

During my professional career, I worked in different fields such as Management, International Commerce & Marketing, Tourism and Translation. 

I have created my Language School ATOUT LINGUA on the conviction that my clients and their needs are highly important. That is why I always do my very best to fulfill them, and that is how I got my reputation as a private and group tutor, both in English and in "French As A Foreign Language".  My main activity comes from regular clients (individuals, groups, other training centres etc...) and from private pupils who have heard about my tailor-made teaching method.  

• Acquisition of essential French grammar skills and competency in practical situations.

• Work on oral and written expression and comprehension.

• Use of varied tools: comic strips, newspaper articles, video...

• Learning activities that prompt the need to learn French and provide a cultural insight into France and its Regions (learning to speak French in everyday situations, conversational exercises based on authentic documents).

• Practical French speaking exercises meant to acquire reflexes in oral expression and to improve pronunciation.

•  Review the previous lessons and any difficulty encountered. Work on weak points and your specific needs.

• Review the most important points of French grammar.

• Business French : commercial French vocabulary; using the telephone language; coping with situations in professional life; the French business environment (practical exercises, simulations and role plays, etc...)

• Work on all aspects of any subject of your choice.
