Hi! I'm a native Parisian and a full-time French tutor with more than 10 years of experience helping American learners. On Wyzant, I've taught more than 280 students and completed over 2,175 hours of tutoring, earning a 5,0 from 526 reviews.

I specialize in French pronunciation and in helping students speak clearly and confidently. My structured lessons combien targeted pronunciation training, practical grammar, guided conversation, and regular review so that students not only understand French also use it naturally and remember what they learn.

I work with complete beginners and adult learners, as well as middle school, high school, AP, IB, and university students. Whether you need ongoing academic support, exam preparation, or a step-by-step program for learning French as an adult, each lesson is personalized around your goals, level, and learning style.

Students describe me as patient, perceptive, fun, and encouraging. I love making complex concepts easy to understand, identifying what is holding each learner back, and providing clear, practical guidance.

If you're ready to make meaningful progress in French, I'd be delighted to help.

A bientôt !

French

These last 3 years I have been tutoring young adults and adults with very different goals (before an exam or on a regular yearly basis, before an assessment, some before an expatriation in France, some just for regular trips in Canada) and backgrounds but whatever their goals and difficulty I helped them to really improve their skills and especially their confidence. Often, the most difficult part is speaking French because they have no opportunity to practice with French native. I used to work for lawyers in an international firm in Paris so my French had to be excellent to meet their expectations. So, you can be sure you will learn a proper French in a relaxed environment.

Organized, perceptive, and a good listener

My situation was pretty specific and fairly urgent, and Chrystele made a quick and accurate assessment and produced improvements in my French during the first lesson. She also followed up right away and provided practical solutions for my specific situation over a realistic timeline.

Amazing!

This was our first session. Chrystele has a joyful way of teaching and presenting materials. She excels at feedback. Chrystele was able to tailor the program for my particular needs. Wonderful! ! I loved her approach and I am excited for our future sessions.

Susan, 3 lessons with Chrystele

Great tutor

Chrystele was very patient and knowledgeable with my high school daughter. She was flexible in staying on the session longer than scheduled. My daughter felt very good about the session and is looking forward to working with Chrystele!

Mindy , 7 lessons with Chrystele

Wonderful, Creative Native French Tutor!

Chrystele is wonderful! She can quickly discern your needs and your level, she is very prompt, she creates situations for conversation, documents and recorded sessions so you can review during the week. My specific needs for refreshing my (very rusty) French so I could travel with some degree of confidence are being met and exceeded with her tutoring. I highly recommend Chrystele!

Kathy, 4 lessons with Chrystele

Excellent Teacher. Will see again

Chrystele focuses her lesson plan on perfecting the basics, helping with pronunciation and base-line conversational skills. Personally, I had invested a lot of time studying on the app Duolingo—which helps with reading and writing. Chrystele’s teaching will help me be confident in speaking when I travel to France abroad.

Alex, 1 lesson with Chrystele

Great class

The 2 times I’ve spent with my teach I’m already gaining confidence in learning French. She is extremely clear and patient when it comes to corrections. I am truly having a great time so far learning This most beautiful language ever.

LeMel, 21 lessons with Chrystele

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

My son has been struggling with his advance French class and Chrystele has been great helping him build with his confidence, pronunciation, reviewing the grammar they are working on at school and providing him various tips. He loves his sessions.

Totti, 10 lessons with Chrystele

Building on basics.

It sounds simple, but Chrystele has shown us that having a basic mastery of French sounds and pronunciation is the key to improving. We are really focused this week on the different sounds of the French "e". My wife is working hard and she is very pleased with her progress
