I can't speak highly enough of Valerie. I have a New Zealand accent which makes me hard to understand even when I speak English, but Valerie has such an exacting ear that I'm sure I will be better understood in Geneva, Switzerland where I live, in the future.

She is professional, always ready on time, listens carefully and provides valuable feedback on various elements of what I say (try to say) in French. It is a joy to talk with her. She is happy to customize the sessions to what I need. After looking for a tutor for some time, I am glad I found Valérie.
