AWESOME lessons + very well prepared
This was my 2nd lesson with Claire and WOW did she come prepared. I had sent her a couple short stories ahead of time that I planned on reading. I kid you not, she came with like 5-7 printed pages of exercises, Q&A and other activities related to the stories. Also, she does a great job of focusing on my pronunciation. She never interrupts. She let's me work my way through my response, takes notes, then explains how it could be structured differently or pronounced better. The hour flew by!

Claire is the best!
Claire has been helping my high schooler who is new to French. Claire’s help has been invaluable and my child feels much more confident after practicing with Claire. We are so glad we found her!

Great teacher
My daughter just had her first lesson with Claire which was great. Claire was professional and focused and got my daughter speaking in French straight away. Looking forward to more.

So helpful and patient!
Claire helped out two college students with intermediate French. She asks what you are learning in advance so she can bring worksheets that apply to the topics for you to practice. She explains things very clearly and makes sure you understand. Highly recommend!

Merci Beaucoup
Considering my daughter comes from a non French speaking family, and had no opportunity for immersion in the French language, Claire’s expert teaching skills gave my daughter the ability to approach her French final with confidence and éclat. I highly recommend Claire and give her a most hearty recommendation of extraordinaire.

Came prepared
Claire came well prepared for my son’s lesson with plenty of worksheets and exercises. Listening in from another room, I would describe her as highly focused, serious and creative in her approach to didactics.

Helpful, funny and nice tutor
That's what my 9th grader said about Claire. She is a very enthusiastic tutor who can teach grammar and conversation in a way that helps the student remember. She also brought her own worksheets and books to supplement the instruction. My son felt confident with his understanding of French for the first time after working with Claire.

Claire is an exceptional tutor
Our daughter loves her time with Claire, who she says "teaches her so much" and who clearly has taken the time to build a relationship with her to facilitate that learning.
