Vicki H.

2 French lessons

I was so worried about my grades in French but with Claire's instructions I worry no more. She is very good at explaining French Grammar and pronunciation. I feel better and more confident submitting my French lessons.

Pamela P.

6 French lessons

I was very worried about being able to learn a new language at this stage of life, but Florence has made learning this beautiful language a wonderful experience. I think it is a great advantage to learn from a native French speaker who also knows the common idioms and sayings that you won't find in any book! Florence is so kind and patient, and the pace of the lessons is just right so that you are making good progress without being overwhelmed.

Whitney G.

7 French lessons

I have a little background in French, but she started me off with a quick comprehension test to determine my skill level before beginning. Since then, each lesson has built upon the previous smoothly and understandably. My vocabulary and comprehension are noticeably improving and I genuinely look forward to each lesson. She provides homework to ensure that you're practicing between lessons and also a grammar book, as well.
