Bonjour les amis! I’m Christine, your fun-loving French teacher specializing in beginners, kids, and conversational French since 2017. Whether you’re starting from zero or polishing fluency, my lively lessons blend grammar, games, and real-world French (think movies, travel, and tasty croissants 🥐). Let’s turn mistakes into laughter and textbooks into adventures—ensemble! À bientôt!
Ich als Lehrkraft
Bonjour, je m'appelle Christine! I was born and raised in France and went to the University of Grenoble where I obtained a degree in English literature geared towards teaching. I have been teaching French online since 2017. My students come from all walks of life and range from young children to adults. My lessons take into account your learning style and preferences and will almost always include a grammar point with practice exercises and some oral comprehension with perhaps the viewing of a video or maybe the reading of a text to improve pronunciation. I want you to have fun while learning/practicing how to be fluent in French! I hope to see you in class soon. :)
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My lessons are fun and interactive! Depending on your level, we will always do a bit of grammar and practice exercises and then switch to a listening, speaking, and/or reading exercise.
I use a lot of digital material, be it a video, a magazine article, an online multiple-choice quizzes etc... to make our lessons interactive and current. You will be given the opportunity to express yourself in French as much as possible, to expand your vocabulary bank and improve your grammar and pronunciation. And of course I always listen to your suggestions and will adapt the lessons accordingly.
Christine has been teaching my 11-year-old son for a year now and he absolutely loves his lessons. He even asked to increase from 30 minutes a week to 45 because he enjoys them so much. Christine has a warm personality and makes every class engaging with a mix of conversations, games, and different materials that keep him motivated.
What really stands out is how much progress he has made. Even though he has no French outside of Christine’s lessons, he already knows so much after just a year. She also writes detailed reports after each class so I can clearly see what he has learned and how he is improving.
Christine is professional, caring, and creative, and she genuinely invests in her students’ success. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a teacher who makes learning fun while delivering real results.

Christine was a fantastic French teacher for my six year old daughter. She managed to build very effectively on my child's existing French language skills gone rusty after a summer of no lessons.
She's the perfect blend of warm, kind, firm and knowledgeable. My daughter's an infamous wiggle but, and Christine took it all in stride, while giving Michaela fantastic instruction.

I had my first full lesson with Christine today, with new words, games, and reminders of what we did in our trial (during which actually did a lot!). The quick activity is stimulating and the time passes quickly!

Christine is a wonderful tutor! She is personable and encouraging, and always comes prepared with structured lessons. Lessons have been a good mix of vocab, grammar, and practical phrases. I appreciate how she keeps me honest with my pronunciation—correcting me in a supportive way that helps me improve without ever feeling discouraged. I’m making steady progress with her guidance and would highly recommend Christine to anyone learning French!

Learning with Christine continues to be stimulating, with conversations where she fills in my rusty vocabulary, plus structured scenarios with new words to help me practice the many prepositions that I know are coming! :-)

I had a delightful trial lesson with Christine today. I am trying to recover my French from long ago. Christine quickly found my limits and for the rest of the time we reviewed some vocabulary and grammar rules, reinforced with some little games. I look forward to continuing!
