I am a native speaker of French (a dual citizen of France and the US). I studied French literature, philosophy and English at the University of Paris. I then moved to the United States to earn a MA and teach French at a university. I have taught beginner's, intermediate, and advanced French.

I have a very deep knowledge of the French language and culture and love to share it! I can teach any level and adapt to any needs though I have more teaching experience with teenagers and adults. I can also help undergraduate students with advanced grammar, reading and/or conversational French. My primary goal is to help students improve confidence in the classroom and thus improve their grades.

I will work with you or your child to tailor the lesson so it fits your particular needs and expectations.

Can't wait for my next lesson!

Marine is exactly the kind of teacher I was looking for. She's a great listener and teacher. She understood the kind of lessons I wanted and we started right in. Her teaching style is patient and friendly and kind. I learned new words and ways of speaking right away. It was wonderful to meet with her in person.

first time

today is the first time my daughter met with Marine and she is very patient and gave my daughter some good tips and very encouraging. She was able to pin point her weakness and help her with that regard.

Thank you for your feedback Jennifer! I am glad I was able to help your daughter with her revisions. I really enjoyed working with her too!

Marine has a great teaching connection to her students!

Marine has helped my daughter gain confidence in French. She is thorough and patient, my daughter is relaxed and enjoys learning from Marine. At the end of the lesson she is much more confident in what is being covered in class.
