French- Canadian tutor & Certified special need educator Bonjour! I’m Vanessa 👋 I’m a French-Canadian from Montreal.

Vanessa is a genuinely fantastic French instructor. We've been working together for a month or two now and I look forward to our conversations every week; they are always intriguing, varied, and fun. Her language is perfectly graded for my level and she knows when to support me when I falter. I feel like my French gets better with every session. I couldn't recommend her more if you're looking to improve your French.

Vanessa is terrific! My french is horrible, but she is patient and does her best to understand me. She offers simple ways to get my point across and helps me to feel more confident in my ability to communicate. I would recommend her to everyone! She is a GREAT teacher!

I chat with Vanessa 2-3 times per week and it has been SO helpful in developing my conversational skills. She’s so kind and has a great sense of humor which makes her easy to talk to.

This was the most I have ever spoke French in my life! Vanessa was very patient and helped me through conversation. She understood my goals for this lesson and was wonderful. I can’t wait to study with her again!
