Camille V - Tutor in Big Bay

I'm a French native who has been living in South Africa for over 10 years, with experience in teaching both French and English in France, the US, South Africa and Indonesia. I have worked as a freelance translator for over 16 years now and I am in the process of getting accredited as a Sworn Translator. Most importantly, I enjoy traveling, eating, going to the cinema, hiking, and having lived in various countries on 4 different continents allows me to be very comfortable with the culture differences and people's expectations.
