Cécile is an amazing French teacher! She understood my goals right away and tailored the lessons perfectly to my needs as I prepare for my move to France. Her teaching style is clear, engaging, and encouraging, which has made me feel much more confident in speaking and understanding French. I love how she incorporates practical situations into our lessons, making everything immediately useful for my daily life. I’m so glad to have found her and can’t recommend her enough!

I just had my second lesson with Cécile, and it was just as fantastic as the first! This time, we focused on expanding my vocabulary and practicing conversational skills for situations I’ll likely encounter in France. She’s incredibly attentive and always makes sure I feel comfortable while speaking. Her corrections are spot-on, and her tips for structuring my sentences have already made a noticeable difference. I’m feeling much more prepared for my trip, and I can’t wait for our next lesson!
