Private French Tutoring & Conversation: Ages 3-17

In one-on-one tutoring sessions, I will work individually with learners to build their conversational skills and confidence in French in a fun and engaging manner. Google Slides and realia will be used to enhance lesson materials. If students have specific topics they would like to learn about or discuss in French, if I am given at least 24 hours notice, I will work to tailor the lesson according to their interests or needs. Upon enrollment, there will be a welcome message in the classroom with a list of lesson topic choices for students to choose, if they would like. (For students with zero French experience, we will focus initially on introducing ourselves, counting, learning colors ... the important initial bases.)

I try to use as much French as possible during our sessions and provide error correction in a positive manner with regards to grammar and pronunciation. I only use English briefly if it is necessary, based on the student's level, to explain class rules or language rules/translations that can't be quickly explained or shown on the screen or through gestures. I am happy to work with a variety of learners, whether they are complete beginners or upper-intermediate students with previous exposure and knowledge of the French language.
