Maude

I just started tutoring lessons in preparation for my TEF exam, specifically with the writing portion. Maude is patient, explains things and gives me practical advice for how to improve my written French, something I've never practiced. I can't recommend her enough if you are looking for someone who is kind and supportive but will push you to improve.

I was very nervous as this was my first time speaking French with anyone, but Maude made me feel comfortable and helped me through my mistakes. Looking forward to future lessons with her!

Best French teacher! An *expert* in French language, Maude excels in explaining concepts in simple terms for learners to apply. She encourages students to develop confidence through her expert feedback and easy-going approach. Maude has a wealth of exercises available for students to practice on their own!

Best French tutor I've ever worked with!

I enjoyed meeting Maude for the first time. I'm new to italki and she made me comfortable about doing something that might be hard for me, speaking French. Can't wait for our next class!

You're going to feel good about your first lesson with Maude. I just had my first lesson with her and there will be more in the future. She is as patient and warm as others have noted; her calm and accepting presence gave me as much room as I need to comfortably stumble through my French. Her feedback is gentle and only as is necessary or requested. I recommend Maude without reservation.
