Just had another great lesson with Justine. I have been taking lessons with her on italki for several years now, and have made really significant progress in my French as a result. She is easy to talk to, asks questions to stimulate conversation, and offers helpful corrections when needed. She often shares worksheets to help me master certain elements of French grammar, or expand my vocabulary. Our lessons are always engaging and enjoyable.

Justine is an amazing teacher. She is knowledgeable, patient, supportive and thoughtful. Her energy and enthusiasm about the language is motivating and inspiring. When I started taking lessons from her I was an absolute beginner. I had no previous knowledge or experience with the language. She recommended a great textbook and structured lessons that were consistent with my goals and study habits. I have now been taking lessons from her for seven months and we have progressed through the beginner concepts and into more intermediate topics. Overall, I highly recommend Justine!

Justine is a fabulous teacher - she presents interesting topics for me to work on and gives me excellent feedback. She prepares a fun and educational lesson that I look forward to every week! I highly recommend her!

I have been taking regular lessons with Justine for over a year, when I knew I was going move to work in a French-speaking country. She helped me get from not speaking at all to conversing within a couple lessons, on simple themes of course. She has a lot of patience and is fun to talk with even though my vocabulary was limited in the beginning. She could switch between letting me talk (while not interrupting the flow of the conversation, so that I can gain confidence), and aiding and correcting when she can feel that I want it. She is very flexible in terms of tailoring to what I want to do, which differs from time to time (to be honest, according to if I have had the motivation to do homework, or if I just want to talk). Looking forward to continuing :)

Justine encourages me by saying she is understanding my French, but she also gently reinforces the usages that she wants me to focus on. She is a tremendous teacher.

Justine has really helpful games to use for learning the lesson. They help me build vocabulary and think and speak in French at the same time.
