French lessons / French as a Foreign Language for adults / Conversation

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Journalist in written press for 20 years, trainer for 6 years in French as a Foreign Language and trainer in mastering the French language in a private establishment, I offer French courses for foreign/non-French-speaking adults. I am a trainer in a private establishment and I have also been a volunteer in a socio-linguistic workshop for migrants since 2018 for Médecins du Monde in Toulouse. I created my French training company and I am self-employed. I live in Toulouse and I can travel around the Toulouse region and the Gers. For learners who live abroad, classes are held via Google Meet, Zoom or WhatsApp.
After a first assessment which will allow us to define your needs, we will improve your knowledge of the French language and the fluidity of your conversations in French. My goal is to make your French perfectly understandable and to give you back your daily autonomy thanks to the practice of this language. I will provide you with suitable written and audio material.
We will talk a lot and in a good mood! I also speak English, Italian and Spanish when needed. I can come to your workplace during your breaks or to your home. I also offer webcam lessons.
I can also help you proofread and correct your manuscripts, internship reports, dissertations, theses as well as the writing of your administrative or professional documents. I offer refresher courses in French for adults.

If French is your mother tongue but you need a refresher in writing... Do not penalize your professional development. Let's find together the basics of the French language. Spelling, conjugation, grammar, French will find all its flavor in your writings. No more meeting minutes, activity reports or emails full of mistakes! You will regain self-confidence, and will be able to project yourself into the future to develop your professional career.
I also offer you the correction, proofreading, rewriting and reformatting of your personal or professional documents as soon as possible. A job that we will do together during the lessons.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I give French lessons, on a voluntary basis, to foreign adults for Médecins du Monde by leading a socio-linguistic workshop. It is a group of migrants whose level of French is A1.1, A1 or A2.
I also teach French to foreign employees working in French companies. Their level varies from A1 to B2. I go to their workplace during their break time.

The teaching of French to children is more focused on academic support for students from CE1 to college.
I am used to children because I am the mother of an adorable little boy!
I am patient and I try to make my lessons as fun as possible.

I only had one of five lessons and it is very obvious that Mary is a very experienced teacher. I am looking forward to be learning with her.
Mary is a trained teacher, with a method that is functional to everyone's needs, which makes the lesson fun and very effective at the same time. I strongly recommend it to all those who want to learn French well and at the same time also want to learn it in a simple and fun way!

Lucie
Private lessons and tutoring in French, English and Spanish
Graduated from a Masters in Comparative Literature and a Masters in Literary Translation, currently a freelance translator, I offer tutoring courses for middle and high school students in French. I have already accompanied several students in their preparation for the French bac, who have all made good progress. With my students, I insist on acquiring a good methodology to succeed, and put special emphasis on self-confidence: text commentary and essay should not be scary exercises! I work with the texts studied in class and adapt to the student's needs: revisions, feedback on corrected homework, preparation for oral exams, writing exercises ... I can also help students learn English and Spanish, which are my working languages. We look forward to meeting you, and taking part of the literary journey together, Lucia

Translation techniques English to french/ french to english
Kids don't remember what you try to teach them. They remember what you are.” Jim Henson I live my profession by this motto and quality teaching has always been my first and foremost concern ever since i stepped in a classroom. The great teacher is someone who grows along with his or her student. Imparting a "savoir-faire" and a "savoir-être" is paving the way to success. Both teacher and student are complementary and the relationship should be that of trust and faith, then only can one claim to be a great teacher

Phillip
Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

Mathieu
Private (online) french lessons with an experienced native teacher in Beijing.
Hi everyone, I'm Mathieu, 38 years old, from Paris, France. I'm a full-time professional french teacher. I lived in Shanghai for more than 5 years where I used to teach in french companies and language institutes. Now, I mainly teach private classes as a freelancer, one to one. I have a 10-year teaching experience in China and France, face-to-face and online through Skype or other similar tools. I'm also a teacher in a business school here in Paris. You can check the comments that a few students of mine left here on my profile, to see that i'm a serious and competent teacher. I'm fluent in english and speak an intermediate chinese mandarin. I am ready for you, self made PDF, audio files and much more. I always adapt my classes to the student's needs. We can focus on what's most important to you. Contact me for any further information, I'm ready to discuss your goals and my teaching method with you so that you can make up your mind.

Elise
French private lessons by university graduate in Letters
Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to: - consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling - improve their language skills (allophone students) - improve their speaking skills (conversation classes) -profect the written expression - prepare for ECR exams - prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion) - help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation - work on argumentative texts - acquire a method to analyze literary texts - learn how to perform bibliographic research The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing. For help with writing: The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson. For analyzes of oral literary texts: In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage. For the corrections of end of studies work: so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting. Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone. For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages. For adults (FLE): In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website). The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling. Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.
