I am an avid francophile and spent three years in Paris studying French at La Sorbonne, Nanterre and Science Politique. I have an MA from the French Graduate School at Middlebury College and completed my thesis in Paris. THIS IS THE NUMBER ONE SCHOOL, RECOGNIZED FOR LANGUAGES, PARTICULARLY IN FRENCH.

My major was in French, learning language, civilization, literature with a well-rounded curriculum in political science, economics, linguistics and art history as well.

I love to teach French to students who might be challenged by certain aspects of the language and also appreciate motivated students who want to really learn the language.

My style is open, participative and focused on the phonetics, pronounciation, grammar and skill sets needed to become fluent. I try to gear the subject matter toward the interest level of the student and find ways to make learning fun and memorable.

As a native English speaker and a linguist in multiple languages, I am able to recognize and teach the nuances and ambiguities of a language. I have taught English to expats in NYC. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Great Review Session

Frederica helped review a concept for my French class in a fun and engaging manner. Through writing sentences and clarifying questions I had, I gained a better understanding of the topic.

knowledgeable and patient tutor

I studied with Ms. Frederica over the summer for a month and I learned a lot from her. She makes sure that the material is clear and understandable. She also is willing to take time and go through each and every detail thoroughly. This was my first time learning French and she made a great impression. She made the lessons enjoyable and smart. Great tutor!

Very punctual and patient

Frederica was a good tutor. She was on time and had pleasant tutoring skills especially in correcting pronunciation, grammar and structure. The translation of some words from English to French was challenging at times due to the nature of specific text.

Very reliable tutor

During summer of 2011 Frederica tutored my daughter who is an international student at Columbia University NYC. Frederica was always very punctual, ahead of the course material and also available for any help on phone. My daughter scored A +.
