Valerie is professional and clearly has an excellent understanding of the complexities of grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation for the learner of French. She approaches the lessons in a thoughtful way. She is patient - giving me space to think and speak and her explanations are clear and very helpful. She understands that it is important to adapt the lessons for each learner's needs. I feel that I will make excellent progress through her teaching. Thank you, Valerie.

From practicing with Valérie on a weekly basis I have seen a great improvement in my spoken french: my vocabulary, my pronunciation, my grammar and most of all my confidence have surged - which has been fantastic. Valérie is a very helpful teacher and also very patient. She's also been great for helping me prepare for my DELF B2 exam. I would highly recommend Valérie to anyone looking to improve their French.
