Lea
- Founder
Lea was born in Tours, France, a city famed for its Loire Valley castles. Growing up in a family that hosted international students, she was inspired to one day open her own French language school.
After earning a Master’s in International Business, Lea moved to Australia in 2010 and worked for Atout France, promoting French destinations globally. During this time, she enjoyed showcasing the beauty of destinations like Paris, the French Riviera and Tahiti.
In 2017, Lea moved to Canada. After completing the DAEFLE diploma with CNED and the Alliance Française de Paris, she created the “French Transformation” program and began teaching French to Canadian and international students in Vancouver.
What started as a passion project quickly grew into a reputable school, with a team of fantastic French teachers and over 4,000 students having learned French at ‘Learn French in Vancouver,’ including many who have prepared for the TEF exam to earn extra points towards Canadian residency.

Aurélie (alias Lily) is from Chantilly, a beautiful city located 40km North of Paris, well-known for its delicious “Chantilly = whipped cream”! When she was 16, she moved with her family to Spain and her passion for foreign languages and traveling started to grow. After graduating from Law school, Aurelie decided to pursue her passion for traveling and visited many countries, among them: Japan, New-Zealand, Australia and Mexico.
This journey took her to Vancouver, Canada where she decided to share her passion for languages and teach French with us at Learn French in Vancouver!

After graduating in Modern Languages (English and German) in 2013, she spent five years and half in Austria where she taught French in Mozart’s beautiful birthplace, namely Salzburg. She then moved to Canada and lived in Manitoba for about two years before recently settling in BC. She loves meeting new people, reading, cycling, hiking in the mountains, swimming in lakes and feels very excited about exploring BC’s stunning nature.

Marion
Hello everyone! I’m Marion, originally from Rouen, a charming city just an hour away from Paris, where I spent all my childhood weekends. After completing my master’s degree, I chose Vancouver to fulfill my Canadian dream, and teaching my language while sharing my culture is an even more rewarding experience for me. Sharing is at the core of my passion, having previously worked in an association with people from various nationalities.
Beyond teaching, I particularly enjoy gastronomy, nature, and sports activities. However, what excites me the most is creating a safe and positive environment for my students. I want them to feel comfortable and inspired during my classes. I’m looking forward to sharing my culture and language with you!

Working for different schools, she has been a certified DELF-DALF A1-C1 examiner and corrector since 2017. Sharing a language means sharing culture for her, building bridges to discover each other in some other ways. She considers learning a language is an exchange opening new perspectives.
