The Xenia Lingua approach
We begin by talking about where you are, what may be holding you back and where French needs to take you. I then create lessons that combine conversation, useful vocabulary, grammar in context and regular progress.
Student experiences
Different goals, one shared experience: lessons that adapt to the person rather than forcing the person into a standard formula.

Bonjour, I’m Xenia
I’m a Franco-Mexican French teacher with a lifelong interest in languages, cultures and history. Having lived and studied in several countries — including France, Ireland, Mexico, Portugal, Cyprus and Switzerland — I understand what it means to find your place in another language.
I began teaching French at UNAM in Mexico and have since worked with adults from many different backgrounds. My lessons combine practical conversation, grammar in context and cultural insight, always adapted to each student’s goals, interests and pace.
For me, teaching French is not simply a profession. It is a genuine pleasure and a way to help people communicate with confidence in real life.
