French lessons with a native, for beginners to advanced, conversation training I am from the center of France, traveling and living around the world to work as a scubadiver guide and french tutor, and sometimes as an independant backer. I graduated in ecology, I am passionate about nature and travel. I am very patient, so the course will be at your own pace and focused on your needs. I adapt the content of my courses to each student. I am curious and open, we will be able to discuss many subjects, we will not be bored. I base myself on my experience of learning Portuguese quickly in Brazil to help my students save time in learning French. I speak French as much as possible to get you used to the language. I teach you everyday French to have conversations like a French and not formal like in French class at school. I teached really beginners but also helped advanced french speakers to get more confident and increase their vocabulary so doesn't matter your level, we will find the perfect pace for you ! For beginners we will also work on your pronunciation so you know how to pronounce each new word you learn in the future.

Maelle is a wonderful teacher. I am probably her oldest student, 74 years old. She is always caring and fun to work with. I have worked with her for almost a year and I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn French. She is a specially talented lady!

I couldn't have asked for a better teacher. I have learned many things from her and she knows her grammar very well. She is always optimistic and supportive. Goes above and beyond!

Maëlle was so kind and welcoming for my first lesson through italkie, made me feel comfortable and politely corrected some grammar issues without making me feel bad. Looking forward to continuing to work together so I can become more fluent.

Maëlle is incredibly patient and a wonderful teacher. I had to take an unexpected hiatus due to work and other reasons. When I was able to return to classes, we jumped right back into our curriculum. Maëlle plans great lessons, and is very supportive even when my French is kind of messy! I really appreciate her, and would recommend that you start your French-language journey with Maëlle if you are at all on the fence. I think you'll be happy you did. :)

I am leaving for France next week. Thanks to Maelle I feel prepared to respond in French and ask questions. Maelle has taught me a lot this last year by using materials, role playing and allowing me to practice speaking in French. Classes with her were fun and she was always patient with me even when she had to repeat herself. I plan on continuing with her once I return from France. I would highly recommend her as a French teacher!

Maëlle is an excellent teacher. She recommends great articles, videos, etc. to discuss. She initiates interesting conversations, the type you hope to have in the real world. She asks follow up questions to keep you talking, and she provides help when you need it. I'm always surprised at the end of our lessons because the time passes by so fast!
