Finding French classes in Geelong that are both effective and affordable can be tricky. Classes are typically in groups, meaning you have limited opportunities to speak. On top of this, you’ll often find certain students dominate the conversation, or ask the teacher endless questions!
LanguaTalk offers a more convenient and effective alternative: 1-on-1 online French classes with experienced native tutors. You won’t find these tutors available for face-to-face French lessons in Geelong. LanguaTalk finds the best tutors from around the world. They offer conversational French classes at cheaper rates because they don’t have to travel to you and they often live in countries with a lower cost of living.
Probably you’re thinking: but are online classes really as effective as face-to-face? You can book a no obligation 30-minute trial session (for free with most tutors) and see for yourself. Classes take place via video call, allowing you to communicate with your tutor and share learning materials, as if you were in the same room. And you can book classes for whenever it suits you.
Below, you can filter to tutors who have availability that fits with your Geelong time zone. Then watch videos, check reviews, and book a trial session.

Bonjour,
My name is Louise and I am a certified French teacher. I have a Master degree in French teaching and for the last few years, I have been teaching French to students from all around the world. I am very passionate about the French language and its transmission.
⚠️ I am currently only teaching intermediate or advanced levels (on the CECRL scale : A2 and higher).
If you are seeking to… :
… you are in the right place !
Because each student is different, I have a wide range of resources and I adapt to your specific needs and objectives. I am convinced that we learn by doing. That's why my students are fully involved in their learning process and are always DOING (and RE-DOING). I do all I can so that you can progress in French and reach your goals.
Feel free to book a trial lesson with me to evaluate your level, define your needs and desires in order to build a lesson plan together. 🙂

👋🏻 Hello and welcome!
I am a native French teacher, multi-certified, specializing in grammar, conversation, and exam preparation. Certified by the Alliance Française and a professional training provider, I am also a member of the Friends of the Palace of Versailles and the Friends of the Château de Pau.
📘 My courses are exclusively for adult learners of all levels (A1 to C2), wishing to improve their mastery of French, and having one or more of the following goals :
• 📚 Master grammar : a progressive program or targeted work, with clear explanations and effective exercises to refine your language skills.
• 🗣️ Improve speaking skills : thematic discussions on current events, society, culture, history, or any other topic you are passionate about.
• 🎓 Prepare for exams (DELF, TCF, TEF) : tailored exercises, practical strategies, and personalized guidance to help you succeed.
💬 Book a trial lesson and let's start progressing together ! 🚀
📌 A few rules to ensure a smooth learning experience :
✅ Personal work is essential. Too many students rely solely on the teacher and remain passive. You don’t need to study intensively, but consistently : 5 to 15 minutes per day is enough to make progress.
✅ To create an effective and enjoyable learning environment, please show respect, discipline, punctuality, and regular attendance.
✅ Please check my schedule carefully. My timetable can be busy, and some slots fill up quickly.
✅ In case of cancellation or changes, please follow the platform rules. Late cancellations directly impact my activity.
✅ Finally, if the learning conditions are not met, I reserve the right to end our lessons. My goal is not to waste time, energy, or resources, but to provide serious and effective support.

Bonjour! Are you ready to elevate your French skills, refine your pronunciation, or enjoy meaningful conversations in French?
What do I offer? I provide tailored French conversations and classes to help you improve your speaking skills, pronunciation, and vocabulary. My goal is to make you feel at ease with the language and able to engage in natural conversations with native speakers. With my guidance, you’ll gain confidence to express yourself authentically in French.
During our trial session, we’ll outline your goals, level, and aspirations. I’ll then craft personalised lessons to meet your needs. I don’t assign homework unless requested, but I share curated French content, videos, podcasts, songs and more to complement our sessions and immerse you further in the language.
My teaching style? Relaxed yet effective, blending cultural insights with practical language skills. We’ll explore how French is spoken in daily life. I correct mistakes using the "silent method," so you can speak freely. Feedback and tips are provided after each session. I can adapt to a more formal or structured approach if you prefer.
A little about me. I’m a native French speaker from Northern France, nicknamed “woman with a suitcase” for my love of travel. I’ve been passionately teaching French for three years. Seeing my students achieve their goals and grow confident inspires me.
I also offer French immersion stays in France, giving students a unique chance to practice the language in real-life situations while experiencing French culture, cuisine and traditions. It is an unforgettable way to accelerate learning.
As someone learning two other languages, I know the joys and challenges of mastering a new language. This motivates me to create lessons that are practical, engaging and focused on real progress.

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!

Bonjour a tous!!
Are you planning to move to a French-speaking country? Do you want to improve your language skills? Prepare for a DELF/TCF exam? Wish to embrace a new culture? or just looking for a new hobby? I am here to help you no matter what you need, from the comfort of your own home, anywhere in the world!
My name is Alizee, I am from Bretagne, in the north west of France, the land of butter and cider!
I have been a language teacher since 2014. I graduated from the University of Oregon in the US with a Master of arts (French culture and Literature) and then I got a bachelor of Teaching French as a 2nd language from the University of Nantes, France. I started teaching at the University of Oregon as a GTF and it helped me find my path, teaching became a part of my identity and I really found myself thanks to this experience. Afterwards, I started to travel around south east Asia and moved to Vietnam and started teaching English to Vietnamese and indonesian students. I started teaching French online when I moved to the Philippines in 2019, and have continued since in several countries such as Canada (Quebec and BC), France, Panama...
I provide personalized online classes, based on your level (from A1 to C2), your goals and your interests. Each class will include grammatical introductions/reminders, listening comprehension but most of all speaking practice. If you are planning to take the DELF exam, I can also help! Homework will be provided outside of class to not waste time during the lesson. From daily life situations, to current events and news, we will have a wide range of different topics.
A bientot!
Alizee
Please note: If you are booking a free trial session, please cancel or let me know asap if you can't make it, out of respect for my time, as well as the students trying to book lessons. Thank you!

Hello my name is teacher Sussu, and I am so happy to meet you.
I am an experienced teacher with more than 17 years of experience.
I have a Master's degree in TESOL (Teaching English as a Second Language) and FLE (French as a Second Language), plus I am Montessori certified.
I believe that learning a new language should be fun and exciting.
Yes, it is not always easy, but it is more like a puzzle you build piece by piece.
I always start where you are and offer new ways to use and expand what you already know.
My priority in class is to make sure my students speak and relax.
The more relaxed, the more confident you will be. The more daring, the more you will see that it is okay to make mistakes and try again.
I will always challenge you to reach higher, to add one step and then another step in your language journey. And then, you will have fun doing so.
Plus, I match my classes to your interests and goals.
So what do you think?
Are you ready to book a trial with me?
I promise to always be patient and kind.
I hope to see you soon.
Until then...

Bonjour !
My name is Marina. I have been a French teacher for five years. I taught in Ireland, England, Spain, and Ecuador, with students of all ages and levels, and in settings both informal and formal. I'm new to LanguaTalk but I've been teaching French online for a year as well.
I offer different forms of teaching, depending on your level and preferred learning methods. For example, a beginner who needs structure might benefit from lessons from a written method that mixes grammar, vocabulary, and listening, speaking, reading and writing exercises, while a more advanced student would prefer us to focus on conversation.
Don't hesitate to book a trial session with me so we can get to know each other!
ESPAÑOL
Bonjour !
Me llamo Marina. Soy profesora de francés desde hace cinco años. Enseñé en Irlanda, Inglaterra, España y Ecuador, con estudiantes de todas las edades y niveles, y en entornos formales e informales. Soy nueva en LanguaTalk, pero también llevo un año enseñando francés en línea.
Ofrezco diferentes formas de enseñanza, según tu nivel y tus métodos de aprendizaje favoritos. Por ejemplo, un principiante que necesita estructura podría beneficiarse de lecciones gracias a un método escrito que combina gramática, vocabulario y ejercicios de comprensión y expresión escrita y oral, mientras que un estudiante más avanzado preferiría que nos concentremos en la discusión.
No dudes en reservar una lección conmigo.
See Reviews From StudentsWhile some teachers on LanguaTalk may offer in-person conversational classes in their local area, the majority specialize in online teaching. This approach is more convenient for them, allowing flexibility and the comfort of working from home. Most teachers are not based in Geelong and are spread across the globe, so if you're looking for a class with LanguaTalk, you should anticipate an online learning experience.
If you prefer in-person learning over online classes, LanguaTalk might not be the best fit for your needs. For local classes, you can search through community boards or local service listing websites. However, we encourage you to explore the convenience and effectiveness of online classes. You can start with a free trial session to experience the benefits first-hand, such as access to a broader range of experienced teachers and potentially lower costs.
Many students initially have reservations about participating in online French classes, thinking the experience will be vastly different from in-person classes. However, they often discover that online classes can be just as engaging and effective. In an online French class, you’ll interact with your teacher and classmates as if you were all in the same room. The teacher may share resources (like articles or videos) and will collaborate with you in real-time using tools like Google Docs or Dropbox Paper, ensuring an interactive learning environment. The biggest benefit is convenience: there is no need to travel, and you can book lessons for when it suits you.
Whilst not always the case, French classes in Geelong are typically more expensive than online learning options. This is due to the costs associated with using a classroom, as well as travel time and expenses for teachers. Online classes, on the other hand, eliminate these overheads. Additionally, online instructors often live in countries with lower living costs, which can further reduce the price of online classes.
Most students take 55-minute lessons. However, some tutors also offer the option of 30-minute lessons. If this option is available, it will be noted on the tutor's profile (below their pricing and above the 'Buy Lessons' button).
In general, 55-minute lessons are recommended for most students. 30-minute lessons may be suitable if you're taking lessons for your child or if you have an intermediate level and only want conversation practice.
Lessons are taught one-on-one to ensure that you receive customized instruction. During the lessons, your tutor will use a variety of teaching methods and resources, including language exercises, conversation practice, and cultural notes, to help you reach your learning objectives.
All lessons take place via video call. Your tutor will normally give you a choice of calling tools, all of which are easy to use.
If you're new to LanguaTalk, we'll provide you with a credit for a free trial session. Many, but not all, tutor offer these for free. If a tutor does not offer a free trial, the trial price will be 30 percent of their full lesson price, allowing you to still try a session at a reduced cost.
Trial sessions last 30 minutes. They allow you to determine if the tutor is a good fit for you and get a sense of what online learning is like. The tutor will assess your level and try to understand your needs and interests so that they can tailor any lessons you choose to take. You'll be encouraged to speak as much as possible in French, but you can also speak in English if needed.
If, after your trial session, you don't feel that the tutor is right for you, you can book a trial with another tutor for 30 percent of their full lesson price.
LanguaTalk offers personalized 1-on-1 French lessons with top-rated tutors. Here's how to get started:
1 - Find a tutor that meets your needs by reviewing their videos, reviews, pricing, and availability.
2 - Book a trial lesson. Many tutors offer a free 30-minute trial, while others offer a discounted trial price.
3 - Have personalized lessons with your chosen tutor via video call. Or try a different tutor if desired.
You don't need to provide credit card information to book a free trial session. Please only book a trial if you're seriously considering taking lessons. Tutor prices vary, and you can use the filter to find one that fits your budget. You can pay for individual lessons or purchase a package for a discount (view a tutor's pricing options on their profile).
We're confident you'll enjoy learning on LanguaTalk. Our platform is trusted by students worldwide because of our transparency. We ask students to rate each lesson, and we display these ratings on tutor profiles.
99.8% of lesson ratings are 5 stars. This is because we only accept the top 10% of tutor applications, unlike other platforms.

One of the benefits of online lessons is that you can learn anytime, anywhere. When you choose a tutor, simply check their calendar to ensure that they have times that fit your schedule. Some tutor may have limited availability due to high demand.
