French lessons: conversations, grammar, reading

From 59.54 C$ /h

I lived for almost 15 years in Paris (in a French family) and defended my doctoral thesis in philology and literature at the Sorbonne University.
French became my first professional language and second native language.

Passionate about the French language, I would like to share my experiences and teach you this beautiful language:
- communication for daily life,
- corrections of articles in French,
- immersion in literature,
- lots of other learning methods...

I always adapt to your interests and goals!

Practice leads to perfection

Unless you learned to speak French when you were a child, it is difficult when you don't speak it fluently to pass for a French speaker. However, this does not prevent you from learning to speak it correctly, because it is well known that a language spoken with a foreign accent is an asset of seduction! Although it may seem complicated, learning a new language is always fun and beneficial, so it is important to practice as much as possible and above all not to give up. Take every opportunity you are given to speak the language and listen to French as soon as possible. And remember: practice leads to perfection!

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.
And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level.

Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

My name is Nicolas, I am a French teacher and native speaker with 8 years of teaching experience.

My lessons are tailored to each student in order to achieve their personal goals and are adapted to their specific needs.

Practice is prioritised throughout the learning process in order to gain autonomy as quickly as possible. Grammar will also be covered, according to the student's level.

This course is aimed at:
- Beginners (basics, conversation, travel);
- Intermediate/advanced learners (improvement, exam preparation: DELF, DALF, TCF);
- Professionals (business French, interview preparation).

As I am currently in Brazil, I am teaching my classes online. I will be back in Geneva in mid-December for face-to-face classes.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for more information.

I look forward to hearing from you :)

My wish now is to be able to transmit and share this passion for languages! That's why I offer courses in French as a Foreign Language, British and American English, Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish.

Dynamic and patient, I love my job, there is nothing more rewarding for me to see one of my students improve and enjoy learning.

Recently graduated with a bachelor's degree from Pole Superieur Conservatory of Paris and Sorbonne University, I would like to teach French to foreigners (especially those whose native language is Albanian or English), living or working in Paris. I also have a DELF diploma in the French language (the one recognized by the state to study in any French university).
My goal is to keep students challenged and progressing while their living in the country.
I assign homework after every session and provide periodic progress reports.
I can teach from English or Albanian towards French

It is also to understand the cultural specificities of Switzerland & France.

Hello to all of you!
I welcome you to my profile.
You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French.
Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning.
Hence my presence on this site.
My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French.
To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges.
I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours.
This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible!
It's all in your favor!
Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.

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.

As a Frenchman who has lived in New York, I use French and English daily, which allows me to clearly explain concepts and support my students through the challenges of language learning. I myself enjoy learning new languages—I'm currently studying Indonesian and German—so I understand what it feels like to be a language learner. My classes are for children, teenagers, and adults, from complete beginners to advanced learners, and are always tailored to your individual goals.

Whether you're learning French for school, work, travel, or simply out of a passion for the language, I'll create a personalized learning path just for you. I like to incorporate your interests and passions into the lessons: we can use videos, texts, music, or podcasts depending on your preferences and learning style.

My approach is caring, flexible and student-centered, with the aim of developing your confidence and allowing you to progress at your own pace.

My name is Lucía, I am a Spanish law student and I will be on Erasmus in the Paris region for a year.

I offer private Spanish lessons (native language), English lessons, as well as academic support and homework help for primary, middle and high school students.

For several years, languages have played a vital role in my life. I have completed several language immersion programs abroad to improve my skills and discover different cultures. In particular, I lived for one to two months in Nice, Marseille, London, and Brighton, where I participated in intensive programs while using languages daily in an international context.

More recently, I participated in a three-month summer camp in the United States, an entirely English-language experience that allowed me to work and live in a multicultural environment. This experience also provided me with valuable experience working with children and teenagers, developing qualities such as patience, teaching skills, organization, and a sense of responsibility.

I am a dynamic, serious, caring, and attentive person. I adapt each lesson to the level, needs, and objectives of each student in order to make learning effective, motivating, and enjoyable.

I can give the lessons in person or online, depending on your preferences.

Feel free to contact me, I would be delighted to assist you in your learning!
