Anthony 🇫🇷🥐

Simply put: Anthony is exceptional. Meeting him was a genuine turning point in my French learning: he has helped me move past plateaus and start making consistent, noticeable progress. His explanations are precise, his feedback is targeted, and he has an excellent instinct for identifying what will actually help me progress. Sessions are intellectually engaging which makes the progress feel both fast and sustainable. I honestly never thought I would "feel" fluent, but each session I find myself realizing how much I can do that I couldn't before. My confidence, accuracy, and overall command of French have grown from around a B1- level 9 months ago to the borderline of levels B2+/C1- thanks to our sessions. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone serious about advancing their French.

Anthony is a great teacher who will meet your own capability then challenge you to push past your comfort zone so that your skills improve naturally. He keeps a good mix of from-the-book exercises for structure, while building off of those exercises to keep them interesting! I’ve grown much more comfortable with my own speaking working with him, which was our main goal of our lessons.

Very nice guy, speaks at a good pace and was able to not make me feel stupid for being mediocre at french ahha. Looking forward to pushing on!

Anthony est un prof extraordinaire. Il adresse toujours les choses linguistique dont j'ai besoin pour avancer mon niveau de français. Grace à lui, J'ai confiance en moi de raconter en français tout qui arrive à moi dans ma vie sans hesitation. J'ai encoure beaucoup de choses à apprendre, mais je peux remarquer les progrès. Il faut dire il est très sympa, et il me met très a l'aise. Je fais beaucoup des erreurs, mais ces sont les erreurs nouveaux, sur un niveau plus haut que avant. Alors, avec son aide je continue mon voyage de la langue française avec joie et un peu de fierité

I enjoyed my first lesson with Anthony. I studied French in high school and haven't used the language for years so I was surprised how at ease I felt speaking basic French with Anthony. I tried several teachers prior to Anthony, but my mind kept drawing a blank (when it came to remembering French words) and I found it hard to understand what their assignments were. Anthony explains concepts and exercises in French in a way that I know what to do. Since I'm traveling to France in September, Anthony is going through role-playing scenarios that might be useful during my trip. Overall, I think I'm starting to remember a little of my French. Merci beaucoup Anthony!

Deciding to work with Anthony was a turning point in my language journey. I have worked with a number of tutors, each with their strengths, but with Anthony I felt at home and confident from the very first lesson. I had previously achieved an acceptable college-level (B1-ish) of French but then I neglected it for 10 years. Anthony provided - and continues to provide - a safe and completely judgement-free environment; he is patient and provides gentle correction or suggestions on how to rephrase incorrect / awkward constructions. He always gives plenty of time when I’m struggling to phrase something (I often pause for a while to think, hopefully that’s relatable…). Crucially, he has an absolutely perfect sense of when to jump in and rescue me because I just can’t find the right word or finish the sentence. His demeanor is calm, encouraging, and reassuring - basically the ideal mentor for something as error-prone as learning a new language! I honestly cannot recommend Anthony enough!
