Private French lessons for 1 or 2 in the Antibes area

From 53.32 C$ /h

Learn real French, as spoken in the street, in shops or at work.

The lessons are based on actual communication in French. Imagine you met a French person who didn't speak or understand English, and you had to communicate... how would it go? maybe it would be difficult? especially at first?...

Thankfully I am used to this situation and have many techniques to overcome the difficulties of the language barrier:

1) I always use a whiteboard to illustrate my explanations. It may not seem like much but the use of pictures to illustrate an explanation makes it so much clearer! It also stimulates the imagination and increases students Pictionary skills.

2) A great deal of miming enters the communication. A student who wants to talk about his pet parakeet but doesn't know the French word "perruche" will have fun acting like a bird, imitating cage bars with his fingers, chirping merrily... When I finally understand what he is doing, I happily shout out the word PERRUCHE! as if I had just won a game. The student is happy he managed to make himself understood, and all the miming and effort will act as a powerful stimulant for his memory.

3) So in lessons we use miming, drawing, and also ... talking!! I love to teach students to use French words they already know in order to discover new French words. Students often know I'm bilingual so if they don't know a word, for example "beginning" in French, they will ask me "comment dit-on beginning en Français". So I look dumb and I ask them "C'est quoi BEGINNING? (What is BEGINNING?). And I always use a strong French accent on the English word to emphasise the fact I DON'T SPEAK ENGLISH!!
They often laugh at my reaction and search for ways to explain. Sometimes they have difficulties to explain, so I help them. Yesterday my eleven-year-old student was at a loss, but I showed him he could simply use the opposite « La Fin » (the end) to make me understand he is searching for « Le Début » (the beginning).

Lessons are lively, interactive and effective. A vous de jouer !

3 good tips to learn a language

1) Listen a lot

This is essential. And easy, for English. You can watch movies or series, subtitles in French at first then in English when you are more comfortable. You can listen to the songs in the lyrics ("lyrics" in English).

2) Many speakers

Also essential, find a teacher who has a good conversation, or a friend, college... Speak even if you lack vocabulary. Mime the missing words, draw, make yourself understood at your level.

3) Read simple things

Books for children can be a wonderful tool of progress. Roald Dahl's books for example (Fantastic Mr Fox, Charly and the Chocolate Factory...) the series "the worst witch" by Jill Murphy. Comics too.

Hello,

With 4 years of speech therapy studies and holder of a diploma in teaching French as a foreign language (DAEFLE), I cultivate a real passion for our language that I would like to pass on to you in order to help you overcome your difficulties.

For seven years now, I have been teaching people of all nationalities and levels in Nice, whether as a private tutor or as a teacher in several French schools for foreigners.
My various experiences in this field, as well as in the field of speech-language pathology where I have done many internships with children, adolescents and adults in difficulty, have helped to enrich my pedagogical and relational skills (show myself patient, attentive and reassuring in the face of obstacles and "blockages").

Classes can take place at my home or yours in Nice, in a public place (if you especially want to improve your conversation) or online.

Bonjour ! I’m Mélanie — a native French teacher (and English too 😄) based in Nice.

I help learners of all levels make real progress in French — without boring or overly academic lessons. My approach is dynamic, personal, and focused on what truly matters to you: speaking naturally, feeling confident, and enjoying the process.

Over the past few years, I’ve guided hundreds of students to excellent results by using creative, interactive methods adapted to their goals — whether that’s improving conversation, preparing for exams, or learning for travel or work.

I also offer “in-context” French lessons, where we can practise French in real situations — at a café, museum, market, or walking through the old town. It’s a fun, immersive way to learn that makes the language come alive.

Each lesson is tailored to your needs, pace, and personality — so you’ll always feel supported and motivated.

📍 Available for in-person and online lessons
📅 Flexible scheduling
💬 Lessons in French or English

Send me a message with what you’d like to work on — I’d be happy to help you reach your next level in French!

À bientôt,
Mélanie

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.
