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,
 

Hi guys! It's Rita here :)

I am an enthusiastic French teacher (I also teach English, Russian, Spanish and German). So, your mother tongue can be any of these languages  as I   speak and teach in all of these languages. Learning grammar is only one part of learning a language, the other part is practicing, and of course having as much fun as possible during the learning process! I work with a book to give your learning a structure. However, I also choose interesting videos, audio files and conversation topics so that you get immersed into the language as much as possible. 

My focus lies on the right pronunciation, motivating you and showing you that learning a language can be lots of fun. I have lived and worked two years in the South of France and have a German diploma in translation and interpretation for French, German and English. I speak 7 languages and 5 of them fluently. I want to show you that it is possible to learn a new language fast and with fun. I usually need 3-4 weeks in order to speak a new language fluently. How do I do it? Through as much immersion into the language as possible: reading books, comics, watching cartoons, films, YouTube videos, listening to songs, and speaking to natives in real life and online.

My students have a high success rate as I have over 15 years of teaching experience (I started tutoring the younger kids in English when I was at college, and worked as a language coach during my studies). See you soon in class! Sending you lots of good vibes, Rita

Hello, how are you? My name is Sylvain, I'm 30 and from Belgium. I currently live in São Paulo, Brazil with my wife. I have a degree in management, but I've been working as a French teacher since I arrived in Brazil. 
I did a university exchange in Chile, which helped me learn Spanish.  I'm a curious person and I'm interested in almost every topic, but I particularly like talking about the economy, politics, technology and cultural differences between countries.After arriving in Brazil, an opportunity came up for me to work as a French teacher in a school for adults, where I worked for the first two years. After that, I decided to become self-employed and concentrate on one-to-one, in-company and online teaching. Today, I have students of all levels with different objectives (work, travel, pleasure, French language maintenance, diplomacy etc.) and I love it when they are satisfied and see themselves progressing. On top of that, I find it very interesting to be able to talk to people with different profiles, backgrounds and histories.


We will define the material to be used according to your specific needs. We'll work with a variety of materials such as:
-French language methods (Défi, Tout va bien, Alter Ego, etc.)

-Grammar/vocabulary books covering general themes or more specific to your objectives 

-Recent articles, videos and audios on current topics

-Speaking or conversational exercices

-Test preparation

In addition, I try to stimulate the student to talk about different themes that are important to him/her.


 

Bonjour !

My name is Céline. Teaching languages online has been my full-time activity for the last 4 years, which ensures punctuality, professionalism, and continuity. 

I am a multifaceted teacher:

> I am casual and I put particular importance on teaching real language, i.e. we will approach all kinds of vocabulary in our classes using authentic material.

> I am business and corporate-oriented as my previous professional experiences in retail and recruitment allow me to help you to build your CV and train you for job interviews.

> I am structured when it comes to grammar. I do use lessons and exercises.

> I have a solid academic background related to languages and experience preparing people for official language exams such as DELF, TCF, etc.

> I organize French immersion programs in France to help my students deepen their knowledge of the culture and feel more confident talking with native speakers.

These are some comments actual students posted on my LinkedIn profile:

Marc, Chief of Strategy and Corp. Development: “Céline is knowledgeable about grammar and language formalities but also has a nice conversation and adapts well to your need as a student, making the class enjoyable and using technology in the right way."

Gozde, Data engineer: “Céline provides lots of learning material, documents, links, and videos. She is responsive and very well organized while it is fun to chat with her about real-world topics."

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

I am a student oriented teacher, I listen to you needs and why do you wish to learn french, is it for communication or written purpose , perhaps your job or you have friends and family who speak french and you want to communicate with them or simply for the love of the language and culture ? Keeping in my mind your goals and needs I tailor my lessons to help you best in your journey of learning French.

I am a certified examiner for DELF A1-A2-B1.I have been teaching french for 14 years.Be it general or business french, my students quickly become comfortable and confident with the language, I have also trained many multinational companies all over the world . I use the learner-centered methods, the input of the sessions are a blend of practice and theory of the language. I use practical activities based on Communicative Language Teaching (CLT),  methodology, throughout the course, I encourage my students to use their own daily situations in class and express them in french like in real life in role plays. In the communicative approach you will be able to start talking very quickly this is when we are going to work on theory which is grammar, I have many resources to make grammar easy , we will practice with examples and exercises which helps in learning new vocabulary and also learn how to use the correct grammar in a sentence.Take a trial with me so we can get to know each better and create a course fit for your needs!

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

Hello, My name is Julien, I come from Saint-Malo, a beautiful little town in Brittany in the northwest of France. 

I love traveling to discover new cultures and learn new languages. 

I have lived in several countries: Japan, Taiwan, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. In life, what I love is cinema, reading, walks, games and of course good food! 

I have been a French teacher since 2015. I have taught in Peru, Ecuador and Colombia, whether in groups, private classes, face-to-face or online. 

I have worked in a private institute, in universities and in French Alliances. 

You are at the center of my pedagogy! I adapt my approach according to your objectives, your pace and your areas of interest. 

We can work: conversation, grammar, pronunciation, expressions, etc ...

In addition, I can prepare you for international exams such as the DELF / DALF / TCF / TEF. 

During my classes, we use photos, videos, articles, songs, games, etc. to diversify the lessons. 

I adjust my courses to each of my students, I can help you practice oral and written comprehension, oral and written expression as well as conversation.

Hello ! My name is Charlotte, from France. Learning languages is a passion of mine, along with many others :-) I welcome everyone to come and learn with me; whatever your current level, I’ll be very happy to help you gain more fluency in French. I’m very patient and will provide a cheerful and safe environment where you can talk without any stress or fear of being judged. I try to stick to French as much as possible during the lessons in order to build up your confidence about being able to navigate through your new language. 

I believe in helping you master French as it is spoken/written by actual French-speaking people, not textbooks. This means adapting the material and language level to the situation. Indeed, we don’t usually speak in daily life the way a journalist does on the news. And we don’t write a formal report as we would an email to a friend. So knowing your goals and why you are learning French is essential.

 A bientôt !

Hi! I'm Méloée, I am 28 and I've been teaching French since 2015. I was born and grew up in Bretagne (North-West of France), lived for 7 years in Argentina, 2 years in Marseille (in the South of France) and I live now in Barcelona, Spain. I speak French, Spanish and English, and I am also currently learning Portuguese.

I teach to all levels and ages. Conversation classes, to prepare a trip, an exam, to learn from zero, to practice grammar... we'll see together what are your goals and preferences and I'll tailor my lessons to you. 

In my experience the quickest and best way to progress is speaking and practicing a lot, so I always try to include a lot of practice in my lessons. 

For example, a class may start with a text or video (more or less difficult depending on your level) to practice comprehension, then I'll ask you some specific questions about the document to see if you understood well and see the new vocabulary. Then I'll ask more generic questions around the theme of the video/text, so you talk about your opinion on the subject, related experiences... This way, you'll speak a lot and it allows me to identify easily if you may need some theoretical exercises on specific points.

I will always build my classes depending on your needs. If you are confortable using specifics learning methods or material, let me know and we will plan something together.

Let me you know if you have any questions, and I hope to see you soon!
