I am a French native, licensed teacher at Weston High School. I have also taught at the Middle school. I have tutored for the last 16 years both children and adults. I can help you with your grammar and improve your reading, writing, listening and speaking skills. I prepare students for the French AP and SAT II exams, CNED and other placement exams. I have created an online class with EdX to help students before they start french AP. I offer tutoring sessions both in person and online.

French Subject SAT
The first lesson with Sophie went well. She is knowledgeable with SAT prep for French. My son likes the way Sophie explained. He will continue the lessons with her.

Great Tutor - perfect match for my AP French student!
We hired Sophie to give a little extra practice to our high school senior in the months leading up to the AP French exam. My daughter said that just having Sophie to practice speaking French with helped her in many ways - especially with the oral presentations that were part of her class and exams. Also, as a native French speaker, my daughter immediately trusted her and could tell she was learning from the best. Absolutely, a great experience and Sophie is very patient and kind. Wish my younger daughter was taking French, I would definitely hire Sophie again. My senior scored a 4 on the AP exam with really no studying other than class and working with Sophie. THANKS!

Effective And A Great Connection
Sophie taught my 12 year old son for about 9 months, helping him to prepare for exams in the UK. She achieved a great balance ensuring he was engaged and also moving forward with the areas he needed to learn. Consistently consolidating what he had learned, but keeping him on his toes with new information. He enjoyed his lessons so I couldn't ask for much more from a tutor and would happily have continued with her had we not returned to the UK.

The Best!
Sophie was amazing. She knows the French AP test inside and out, and helped me find my weakest areas of knowledge and we worked on those. I felt confident when I took the test and let's just say I did very well. Sophie was also very punctual, which I appreciated as I traveled from far north of Boston to see her. I chose Sophie because she had excellent feedback and I was not disappointed.

The best French tutor!
Sophie is an excellent and possibly the best French tutor! She is always eager to help and never fails to give my daughter feedbacks on how to improve her grammar, pronunciation, and writing. She explains things very well and always has a few grammar books on hand for extra practice. Having Sophie edit my daughter's writing really helped my daughter improve her grammar and writing skills. I would highly recommend Sophie to anyone looking for extra help in French or for those who would like to get ahead in their class!

Well prepared and organized!
Sophie helped our 16 year old daughter prepare for her French III exams. She was very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. She connected well with our daughter and in a matter of minutes was able to hone in on where the deficiencies were and focus on those weak areas. She made time in her schedule as we needed, and in the end, it paid off on the tests! Thank you, Sophie!

Great tutor that really made a difference!
Our daughter struggled so much last year (2013) with a difficult French teacher in high school. Although French was her favorite subject and even brought her to Paris over the summer, the negative environment at school colored everything. Sophie, you were a lifesaver, with your endless patience and cheery attitude. You made learning fun again and we are happy to report that the C of last year is now an A. Thank you so much!! Our daughter thinks of you often and knows that you really helped her master the foundation she needed.

Wonderful teacher, highly recommended!
Sophie helped my daughter prepare for the new format of the French AP exams and we found her to be an excellent teacher. She had great breadth of knowledge of the French culture, vocabulary, test materials etc and the perfect French accent! She also guided us to useful online materials and several great websites. She was always very responsive to emails and queries and in general great. We would highly recommend her to other French AP students or those taking the French SAT or even just learning French for fun.

Experienced and excellent teacher who is easy to work with and provides efficient and effective tutoring.
My son worked with Sophie to review and prepare for a 200 level college french composition class. She is conscientious and wanted to ensure that he met his learning goals for the time frame she tutored him. She prepares effective and pertinent lessons and teaches them with a multi-modality approach. She explains things well orally and follows them up with clear visual and verbal examples of the material. After each session she emailed recaps of what was covered during the lesson and included links to reinforcement practice homework exercises. My son enjoyed working with her and looked forward to his sessions. Sophie is consistent, clear and responsive in her communications with the student and parent(s). She has a passion for her native language and teaching. Both my son and I highly recommend Sophie to tutor a student or adult at any french level. This was our first time using WyzAnt. We were pleased with the services, payment methods and had a very positive experience.
