Native French Teacher - Students, Travelers, Professionals, Exams

Florence A.

Bonjour! I’m Florence, a native French speaker who studied and lived in Paris for over a decade. I’ve been teaching French for over a year, offering lessons to students of all levels from middle schoolers to adult professionals. My experience includes one-on-one private tutoring, online sessions, and volunteer work in community-based language programs. I hold a TOEIC certification, which supports my ability to communicate and teach effectively in both English and French. I adapt my lessons to suit the learner’s goals, schedule, and learning style. Whether you're preparing for a trip, brushing up on your grammar, practicing for an exam, or diving into business or conversational French, I create a supportive environment where progress feels natural. My teaching combines structured exercises with real-life conversation practice, grammar, listening, pronunciation, and cultural context. I also incorporate proven techniques like shadowing to help students develop fluent, confident speech through repetition and rhythm.

I hold a Master of Science in Marketing of Luxury Goods from a prestigious French business school, and I have professional experience in luxury sales, communication, and marketing in the United States. My years in France gave me a deep appreciation for the richness of the French language and culture, and I now enjoy sharing that passion with learners from all walks of life. Whether you're just beginning your journey or looking to perfect your French, I’m here to guide you with a thoughtful, culturally immersive approach.

Now based in Los Angeles, I offer both online and in-person sessions for adults, students, and professionals. My lessons are tailored, with a focus on building confidence and fluency through consistency and encouragement. I believe that learning a language should be a joy, and I strive to bring a little touch of Parisian elegance and warmth to every session. Feel free to reach out with your goals or questions. À bientôt!
