Outstanding tutor and instructor. Organized, precise and corrects you whole speaking. Even with the corrections, conversation is very natural and you enjoy the conversation without realizing it is also a french lesson. Thank you

A very organized and well structured lesson that Emilie prepared. It was a very casual conversation but throughout the conversation she raised very good points about my specific french goals (in this case the DALF preparation). excellent.
I am Emilie, a French native speaker and a professional teacher.
I have a master level French language teaching qualification.
I have been teaching French to children, teenagers and adults on three continents over the past 12 years. China and Ethiopia were certainly two of the more interesting places to teach.
I live in Paris for the moment. I am teaching with international students and academic teachers. I have developed a personal method to learn French in simple, efficient and nice way. My goal is to help you to LEARN and USE French, in few hours!!
I propose you to learn basics of French in 6, 10 or 16 hours depending on your needs and your schedule. The idea is to focus in French during few weeks (1 to 3 classes per week).
For now, I only start with BEGINNERS (or with few knowledge).

Teaching Approach
SPECIAL BEGINNERS
You would like to
- discover French
- travel in a Francophon country
- settle in a Francophon country
TIME, ENERGY, MOTIVATION are important to you
SAVE your TIME: My idea is 45 minutes together + additional materials will help you to learn french quickly and for a long time
SAVE your ENERGY: structured classes are proposed
KEEP YOUR MOTIVATION: real dialogues and situations, useful grammar, clear feedbacks, a concrete training DURING FEW WEEKS ( 6, 10, or 16 hours depending on your objectives and your level)) and RESULTS at the end
I propose
* a first meeting where we will identify your needs and your objectives and the way we will work together (materials, rhythm & etc.)
* clear lessons with the objectives explained
* useful dialogues in which we will discover French structures to express yourself
* essential grammar and vocabulary are explained and practice through different activities till you know it, it is also review several times after
* Pronunciation is corrected every class through your speech
* Tasks are proposed regularly to reemployed everything, express yourself and learn more
