About Lingogite: Progress in French
Since 2019, I’ve been working as a freelance teacher, looking for ways to bring my classroom experience into podcasts that are educational, practical, and enjoyable. I have a PGCE in French and Spanish from Cambridge University, as well as a Master’s degree in French as a Foreign Language from Paris–La Sorbonne. Through my podcasts, my goal is to help learners make real progress in French — whether that’s through Cooking and Conversation, or my new podcast focused on spoken French and the new GCSE French speaking preparation for 2026.
