Durant cette brève mais importante première session ensemble, en plus de faire connaissance, j'estimerai votre niveau de français afin de répondre au mieux à vos besoins de langue, en adaptant les cours futurs à vos demandes .

This goal of conversation lessons is to get the student to feel comfortable talking and carrying on conversations in French. 

Each lesson is designed to encourage the student to engage in a fun and interesting conversation about cultural, social or historical topics. All of my lessons are structured. Each lesson has a specific topic and combines conversational activities, vocabulary building exercises, reading and listening. We discuss subjects ranging from art, animals, technology, social justice and current events to humor. Each lesson is rich in vocabulary and requires the student to use words they may not have used in the past while carrying on interesting conversations. 

I will also evaluate the grammar needs of each student and will address these issues as they arise. I hold short grammar instruction and exercises in order to help the student perfect the areas of grammar they may need to practice. For most intermediate and higher-level students these grammar points may include; the subjunctive and the conditional tense, pronouns and prepositions.  

I can conduct lessons on Teams, Italki classroom, or Google Meet. Please do not try to do our lessons on a phone. These lessons have PDFs, videos, pictures, audios, and we use the platform chat box for notes so it is better to use a computer for the lessons. It is better to use a laptop or a computer because a phone is not enough to conduct the lesson with the necessary materials.

Parlons français !

For absolute beginners starting from scratch, or anyone looking to build a rock-solid foundation in French from the ground up.
Starting a new language can feel intimidating, but we make it clear, structured, and completely accessible. We begin by identifying:
Your motivations, personal goals, and ideal learning pace
Your preferred learning style (visual, structured, conversational)
Everyday contexts and topics most relevant to your daily life
Once established, we follow a step-by-step method that balances essential language mechanics with active communication, making sure you understand how the language works while getting you to speak from day one.
What we will focus on:
Structured Grammar & Conjugation: Clear, simplified explanations of core rules, gender/articles, essential verbs (être, avoir, regular present tense), and basic sentence mechanics.
Essential Basics & Phonetics: French sounds, silent letters, pronunciation keys, the alphabet, and numbers.
Everyday Practical Vocabulary: High-frequency words, introducing yourself, asking questions, ordering food, and handling routine daily interactions.

In every session, you will:
Demystify grammar through practical examples, visual breakdowns, and targeted exercises
Refine your pronunciation with gentle, real-time corrections
