$2-8 CAD / hour

I’m an intermediate French learner studying purely for my own enjoyment and cultural curiosity, and I’m ready to take my speaking and writing to the next level. Conversation flows when I travel, but I still hesitate searching for the right tense or idiom, and my written work lacks the polish I’m aiming for. Here’s what I’m after: • Weekly one-hour live sessions via Zoom, Google Meet, or another video platform you prefer. • Practical conversation drills that target real-life situations and help me loosen up my accent. • Short writing assignments (emails, journal entries, mini-essays) with prompt, in-depth feedback on grammar, structure, and style. • A clear plan that tracks progress—nothing rigid, just enough structure so we both know what we’re covering each week. I’m happy to handle homework, audio recordings, or any immersive exercises you recommend. While speaking and writing are my priorities, feel free to weave in light reading when it supports the lesson. If you’re a native or near-native speaker who enjoys tailoring material to a motivated adult learner, I’d love to hear how you would structure our first month together and what resources or textbooks you find most effective.

Your focus on taking your French to the next level is impressive. It’s clear you value both conversation and writing, which is key for real progress. A common hurdle in language learning is confidence, especially when using the right tenses or idioms under pressure. Hesitation can lead to missed opportunities to engage in meaningful conversations, costing you the chance to connect fully with others. I’d start with practical conversation drills to target real-life scenarios, helping you feel more at ease. For writing, I’d assign short tasks tailored to your interests, giving prompt, detailed feedback to refine your grammar and style. Regular check-ins would help us track progress without feeling too rigid. I’ve guided many learners with a similar approach, ensuring revisions and feedback are part of the process to enhance skills. Are you open to discussing how we can kickstart this journey together? I’d be happy to offer a free consultation to explore ideas, even if you don’t choose to move forward.

Bonjour, I am a native French speaker with experience designing and delivering intensive language courses for non-native speakers. I would love to craft a one-on-one programme that is tailor-made for your level and expectations. As a lecturer and researcher, I am a reliable, patient and skilled in transfering knowledge. Beyond academic teaching (University of Trento, Lorenzo de Medici Institute), I have trained executives and managers taking them from beginner level to fluency. As course director for the UN, I imparted online and onsite training courses for 100s of officials in French. Contrary to many amateur teachers, I believe in grammar as the foundation of learning any language. After carefully mapping your level, my approach will blend speaking, listening and shadowing and grammatical explanations with written homework and role-plays. I'll keep track of progress with tests and various exercises. I am ready to start this week and adapt scheduling to your availability. À très bientôt pour notre première séance. Sham
