Hi all, I'm a native English speaker (American) and fluent French speaker. I live and work in Montréal as an economist. For those of you worried about accents, I spent 11 years studying France French in school (including a Bachelor's degree in French). I've lived in Montreal for 4 years now where I live and work entirely in French. I'm able to switch back and forth between accents/dialects pretty easily depending on who I'm talking to. I have been a French tutor on and off again for the past ten years.

I want to learn Portuguese simply because I find it's a beautiful language. I enjoy learning language and meeting people from different countries and cultures. Also, a few people in my volleyball league are Brazilian and if I want to play doubles with any of them, I'll need to speak better Portuguese!

About me : outside of work, I really enjoy cooking, playing volleyball (indoor and outdoor), reading, running and yoga. Excited to write or skype and exchange languages!
