English language
TOIC > 900
I actually have mostly learned English while living in Chicago. Some may think that I speak Mid-western American rather than Oxford English. The important is that I get myself understood on both side of the Atlantic
Italian language
Speaking rather than writing
For a French, speaking Italian is not very useful since our latin cousins normally understand French. But living in Milan has given me a closer access to the unique Italian culture wonders
German language
Notions
I started learning German during high school when I was 13 years old. I unfortunately was not very motivated then. I can still ask my direction in the streets of Berlin or Munich
