I have enjoyed my lessons so much with Valerie and believe my french has vastly improved. I am taking a break now for late holidays but will be back.....

Valérie is outstanding; I adore my lessons with her. Although I have tried to be diligent in studying French using a variety of materials, working with Valérie has enabled me to put my learning into practice and so make much better progress. She is endlessly patient and affirming. We can chat about day to day things but also questions she has pre-prepared. Using screen sharing, Valérie enables me to review my responses and correct them. I have gained so much confidence in speaking French that I am moving to 55 minute lessons, 30 minutes is now too short!
