This is my fifth lesson with Gersende, who helped me prepare for an upcoming trip to France by prepping common travel situations. She answered my many many questions patiently and gave me lots culture and travel tips. Gersende is patient, professional, and a great conversationalist. She made me feel very comfortable speaking from lesson one, and she types down words that I've mistaken or am confused about so I could keep them in my notes. She shares lots of great learning materials too, such as podcasts and learning websites. I cannot recommend her enough! Merci beaucoup Gersende! I hope to learn with you again after my trip!

Gersende was very patient, helpful and encouraging. She corrected my mistakes, helped identify areas of improvement and gave me additional resources for me to continue to practice.

Gersende is wonderful! She's very patient and take notes on where I need to improve, both grammar and pronounciation. Merci beaucoup!

Gersende is my favorite Italki professor. I've been using Italki for years and I've tried over 15-20 different teachers. Gersende is a true expert at correcting and noting mistakes. She is a great conversationalist, very professional, and always on time. She is so good that I am nervous in writing this post, because I'm afraid too many people will start taking lessons with Gersende and I won't be able to find time slots with her!

Gersende asks great questions that push me into new territory and I find myself saying things in French that I didn't think I could! I enjoy the conversations but I also go away with a list of useful grammar and vocabulary that I can work on between lessons.

J’ai beaucoup apprécié ce cours ! Le professeur explique de manière très claire et structurée. Il a donné beaucoup de détails et de nombreux conseils très utiles pour améliorer l’expression orale. J’ai appris beaucoup de choses en une seule séance et je repars avec des techniques concrètes que je pourrai utiliser pour le TCF. Merci beaucoup pour ce cours de grande qualité !
