French classes in Georgetown: Try a class for free

Hi, my name is Farid. Teaching French is something I really enjoy, especially when I witness my students progressing in the language and towards their goals.

I have been teaching French for more than 5 years now.  My students are of all ages and from all backgrounds.  

I helped many of them become fluent. Many of them have also passed their exams under my guidance.

My lessons are always customized to meet the needs of the students. I am using workbooks, fun and interactive materials. I have passed a Level 7 Diploma in Teaching skills. I also have a small YouTube channel with many French lessons and tests.

 In 2010, I left my birth country France to move to the United Kingdom. I am currently in Algeria to (re)discover my parent's country. I love travelling and discovering new cultures and languages. I also speak a little Arabic.

Book now a trial with me to set the goals you want to achieve. As a native French speaker, I can help you improve your pronunciation as well as your grammar. I lived in the UK for 11 years which makes me fully bilingual. With a bit of motivation and a hint of work, your French will upgrade in no time!

Hello ! 

I adapt my lessons depending on your needs. My classes usually include grammar, vocabulary in context, and speaking practice.  

Book a trial class so we can plan how to achieve your learning goals.

Looking forward to meeting you ! 

A bientôt ! (See you soon !)

Bonjour! I’m Laurent, a French engineer near Paris with 9+ years of teaching experience. **I specialize in DELF, TCF and TEF exam prep (A1-B2)** and love helping beginners and all learners build confidence through lively conversations. 

As a polyglot (French, English, Portuguese, Creole), I know language struggles firsthand—let’s tackle them together! 

My lessons blend science, history, culture, music, cinema and travel to make French *fun*. 

Ready to start? Check my schedule and *parlons français*!

Let's set your goal and start a work plan! There are many reasons to learn French, such as:

• Passing exams such as the DELF, TEF or DFP.
• Travelling or living in a French-speaking country
• Work requirements and career growth

I can help with all of the above, and more.

It is always a pleasure to be able to have a fluent conversation (or a heated debate) with students who sometimes started as total beginners and to see them acing their exams.

As for the method, I use trusted manuals and activity books because I believe in structure, but also material that suits your interests and tastes - from literature to popular songs, news to scientific articles, series, and movies (subtitled or not), online resources and grammar exercises. Resources are shared on a Slack group where lessons are summarized, and tasks listed. I can also tailor-make lessons for a specific objective like a job interview or a power point presentation.

Teaching French has been my main activity for several years both privately and at the Alliance Française. I am outgoing and chatty, but homework is not optional (at least if you want to improve fast!).

Do not hesitate to book a trial session.

See you soon!

All courses are based on spoken communication. I will allow and encourage you to express yourself on various subjects to increase your speaking abilities and confidence. I spot your weaknesses to bring your language competences to the next level.  I adapt to your requests and your need ! 

Bonjour! 

Ready to unlock French with a visual method that gets you speaking before you even open a textbook?

I’m Romain, creator of a Revolutionary Visual Method that uses symbols to represent words, tenses, and grammar, with a clear and obvious symbol, helping your brain to memorize and make complex sentences.

This tool is great for people who need to visualize what they’re learning.

Why a visual method?

• Faster recall – Your brain stores images more easily than abstract rules.
• Immediate speaking – Place the symbols side by side and you’re forming real sentences in the very first class guaranteed.
• Engaging – Illustrations make every lesson fun and remarkably effective.
• Natural acquisition – Children learn languages visually, why should adults do it any other way?

Why study with me?

• Proven results – I’ve met countless students who could read and write after years of classes yet still couldn’t speak, my method fixes that.
• 10 years of global experience – I’ve taught in NYC, Shanghai, and Rio.
• Multilingual support – I speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Mandarin, so I can clarify tricky points in your native language when needed.
• I have a lawyer degree but I followed my passion for languages and teaching French is my main activity.

For beginners & intermediate learners, the program covers

• Speaking in French from day one
• Rock-solid pronunciation and confidence
• Grammar made painless through visuals

For advanced learners, the program focuses on

• Slang, everyday expressions, their origins, and tricky grammar/tenses
• Expanding vocabulary with terms from science, tech, finance, literature, so you can discuss them with confidence
• Analyzing great songs.
• Perfecting your accent while deepening your understanding of French history, culture, and society

I just need to know your wishes, and I will prepare every time a special lesson for you, in accordance with your interests.

I’ll help building your confidence, did you know what a foreign accent is? It’s a sign of bravery!

À bientôt,
 

Bonjour à tous !

I hold a certification from the Alliance Française and am a certified evaluator for DELF, DALF, TEF, and TCF exams. My goal is to help you build confidence and fluency in French, no matter your current level.

📚 Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of teaching in language institutes in England, Spain, Portugal, and South America. Working with students from diverse cultures has taught me how to adapt my teaching to suit your unique goals—whether you're a complete beginner or aiming for an advanced level.

I use an action-oriented methodology, such as the Alter Ego approach, to encourage you to actively use the knowledge you already have. To enrich your learning experience, I incorporate a variety of resources such as podcasts, apps, videos, websites, books, and newspapers.

I also specialize in preparing students for French exams like TEF, DELF, and TCF. In our first session, we’ll define a personalized strategy to reach your goals. I’ll guide you through the exam format using official materials like Prep My Future. Between lessons, you’ll receive targeted homework to ensure steady progress.

🌟 Together, we’ll create a tailored learning plan to suit your needs and ambitions. Each lesson is structured through a user-friendly Learning Management System (LMS) for clear and effective organization.

À bientôt ! Let’s start this exciting journey together—book your trial lesson today!

About Me

I hold degrees in French Literature, Philosophy, and History from Université Paris 10, along with a Master of Science in Global Change Management from HNE Eberswalde.

Before settling in São Paulo, Brazil, I lived and worked in Berlin for five years, where I began teaching languages through private tutoring and literacy classes for young refugees. In 2017, I completed a French language teaching certification and went on to teach at the Technical University of Berlin for three semesters.

Today, I work with a range of language schools in São Paulo, including IFESP, Versátil Idiomas, and the Alliance Française. I have experience teaching students of all ages and levels, and I regularly design personalized learning materials to meet their goals.

Alongside teaching, I work as a translator, with professional experience translating from English, German, and Portuguese into French.

My Methodology

I offer a highly adaptive, student-centered approach — rooted in curiosity, creativity, and care.

Whether your goal is to pass an exam, grow professionally, travel, or simply reconnect with the joy of language, I build a personalized learning journey tailored to your rhythm, interests, and way of thinking.

Beyond traditional grammar and vocabulary, I incorporate contemporary tools and immersive media — sometimes drawing on memes, music, or multilingual storytelling — to help you engage with the language in a dynamic and meaningful way.

Over the past four years, I’ve curated a rich and evolving digital library of resources, which allows me to create flexible, intuitive learning paths for each student — all available to you with no extra cost.

Are you tired about the boring courses of the language schools?

Are you tired of learning only grammar rules without being able to formulate a single coherent sentence?

Are you looking for a more versatile method for learning French in a more confident way?

Are you looking for a teacher who gets immediately your point and knows exactly how to make you reach your goals as soon - and as quick as possible ?

Then you found him ! I am that teacher !

According to your level (starter or advanced), I adapt my method as following:

Starters : I use a particular book that helps you to work on all the aspects of the language at the same time (phonetics, grammar, vocabulary, reading) and helps structuring the courses

Advanced : I practice conversation with you about more or less complex subjects to increase your vocabulary and to correct the remaining imperfections

Of course, I always adapt my method to your individual situation

About me : I was born in Switzerland. My mother tongue is French, which I always speak with my relatives and my friends. I also speak Italian as I grew up in the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland (Ticino) and I still live there

I also speak English, a bit of Serbian and Russian

I am looking forward to seeing you, so please do select a time for a trial lesson

See you soon. A bientôt. A presto
