Your French partner, friendly, patient and supportive, with more of 1000 lessons given. Hi, I am native French. I live in Brittany (western France), my region of origin, but I have lived in several French cities / regions. I have got a neutral accent (the one you can ear at French TV). Meeting people who want to improve their French is always a pleasure. I do my best to make you feel comfortable with me. You'll probably be nervous at first, but don't worry, my class is a SAFE PLACE where mistakes can be made, so don't be afraid to seem idiot (wait until you see me do pronunciation exercises, you'll see I'm not afraid of looking ridiculous). Everyone is welcome, including introverts. I like traveling, nature, animals, tennis, music, going to concerts, laughing… I hold 5 teaching certificates in French as a Foreign Language, from CAVILAM (Alliance Française de Vichy), from the University of Liège in Belgium, and from the University of Toulouse (Jean Jaurès). Today, I've been teaching French for 5 years and continue to follow training courses to improve my teaching methods. I really like intercultural exchange and would be happy to support you in learning French. I can also speak to you in English or Spanish if you're stuck. I am patient, and will know how to adapt to your goals, and your personality. I know how hard it is to learn a language, but it can also be fun and in a friendly environment. I work with adult students of intermediate level. I offer two types of lessons: 💬 Formal or informal conversation course: ✔️ Practice of oral expression (and co...

Guénaëlle is a friendly, and very encouraging teacher who is helping me relearn a lot of grammar lessons that I had forgotten and she does it in a way that makes me feel like I'm moving ahead instead of just going over things I forgot. She's patient and, luckily, has a sense of humor. I'm glad I found her.

Guénaëlle est super! I've had several conversation exchanges with her and it has been most helpful. It is a bit intimidating to put sentences together in another language and trying to have a conversation. But Guénaëlle provides a supportive, safe environment so there's less stress about making mistakes. She is always polite and I appreciate her careful explanations when I have questions. I highly recommend Guénaëlle as a teacher/conversation partner.

Guénaëlle is good at so many things that make learning French enjoyable. Most important is making the student feel at ease. You can pause and think a while before speaking, you can ask things in English occasionally if you get stuck, and she offers plenty of suggestions to say things in everyday, modern French. Also, something I really value, is that she is skilled at tech, particularly Zoom and Google Docs, which she uses to notate her suggestions or to expand upon the topics that were discussed. With Google Docs, she takes notes for you so that you can concentrate on what you are saying. All this makes for an excellent experience each and every time we have a session.

I thoroughly enjoy my lessons with Guénaëlle. She's interesting to talk to and is both helpful and encouraging. She lets me do a lot of talking and stops herself immediately if I start to say something. She always makes sure I understand her corrections and our time together is something I look forward to. I highly recommend her.
