🎓A class structure designed to help you truly acquire the language so you can use it — not just understand its grammar.
💰Budget option: If you need individualized help, but have a tight budget, please refer to the bottom of the next section for my budget - friendly lesson option. Also ideal for those who have busy schedules or need extra flexibility.
🏗️Acquire strong foundations that will help you master the language
💬Forget the artificial textbook-French, come learn a real, living language
🧭Enjoy unique learning experiences
📚A web page with all your notes and content selected specifically for you
📚A library of content for you to use your French, ideas on how to practice your French, resources to practice what you learned recently and more.
🍁Lessons on Québec’s French available
🍁Recommended to people in Canada, as I can tell you about French history in the country and teach the canadian variant of French, therefore making you better equipped to use the language in the country you’re actually in!
👩🏫While we do use conversation as part of learning, I am not a conversation partner, this is a proper class, with lessons.
♥Current class openings designed specifically for beginners.
📔We use a 2-notebooks system, as handwriting presents many advantages to learning. Students practice in one notebook and use the other one as a journal to encourage them to take ownership of their new language and get creative.
🧭The lessons focus on providing learning experiences to acquire language skills. I add grammar lessons to help you understand the new language.
👁️🗨️Use your new language with activities, worthy content and cultural events and make it your own.
🖼️Explore various topics such as arts, literature, history, and science.
🎙️Learn to adapt your language to different situations with elegance.
📔I will help you establish a study plan and provide appropriate resources.
♥We make time for your requests, such as help with school work or learning about topics of your choice.
♥Each lesson and progress plan is adapted to you and your needs, we take advantage of your strengths and work on your weaknesses.
💰Budget option: If you need individualized help, but you're on a tight budget, you can take the mixed-format course with me, so you can work just as much on your French without emptying your bank account. You'll benefit from the expertise and advice of a private tutor, at a reduced price. This is also ideal for those who have heavy schedule restrictions and need the added flexibility of self-paced learning.
→ Simply set up a study plan with me, for which the video call lessons are spread more widely (for example, one per month) and I'll help you plan your study between lessons. This includes:
♥ A study plan customized to your needs and goals.
♥ An ongoing analysis of your needs and goals to adapt your lessons
♥ All resources, including material of my own creation, adapted in a self-paced formula
♥ Material created specifically for you as needed, including with audio or video
♥ Projects and exercises
♥ All the tips and tools to support you in practical activities
♥ An invitation to take part in cultural events at a reduced price, or even for free, depending on the event.
♥ A tutor available by messaging to correct your homework, answer your questions and accompany you at all times.
Video call lessons can be used for activities that require more interaction.
→For this formula, a minimum of 50 minutes of lesson per month must be attended, be it in one or more sessions. If this does not suit you, please message me. I'll be happy to discuss a solution that works for you!

*****The rules:*****
- I give you everything you need to succeed. However, it's up to the learner to put in the work, follow the study plan and strategies, and communicate their needs and difficulties. I can offer you all the support and knowledge you need, but at the end of the day: you're the one who has to learn the language.
- This course is not suitable for children under the age of 10. A suitable course will be created in the coming months. If you have an immediate need, please message me to inquire about it.
- Students absent 15 minutes after the start of the 50-minute course or 10 minutes after the start of the 25-minute course will be marked as absent for the entire lesson. The course is neither replaceable nor refundable in this case. If you are unable to attend, please let me know before the start of the class.
- Respect and politeness are, of course, expected at all times.
- The use of a provided note page and two paper notebooks is compulsory. Details will be given in class when needed, but feel free to send me a message if you would like to know more.
- Homework and lessons are planned according to your needs and abilities. We plan together, to align with your schedule. It is strongly recommended that you do them. If you don't, you run the risk of hindering your progress, especially if you take one class a week or less.
- The schedule is flexible, you can cancel your classes 24 hours in advance without any problem, but please cancel your classes as early as possible to free up the slot for the others, if you won't be using it.
- This is a course, I am not a conversation partner.
- This course is recommended for beginners.
*group lessons
If you would like to book lessons for a small group (2-5 people is ideal), please contact me for custom plans and pricing. The hourly rate shown on this page is for one-on-one lessons and takes in consideration the planning and creation of tools and custom lessons for the students. A group requires a different style of lessons and each student still requires their own tutoring, so this pricing does not apply. It is definitely a good value per student to have a group, but a custom price needs to be discussed according to your group and each individual's needs. I would be happy to come to a suitable solution with you!
