Excellent tutor for reaching your French goals!
Kristin, 162 lessons with DesireeDésirée is an amazing tutor. I connected with her to become fluent in French, which is my husband's first language. Her thorough knowledge and extensive resources make each lesson easy to follow and appropriately challenging. Each week she sends activities to work on in between our lessons that are tailored to my French goals. She also provides me with songs, books, and vocabulary to bring French home to my toddlers. I cannot recommend her enough!
I am a native French speaker from Belgium, who has been living in the US since 2001. I obtained a French instructor certificate in 2004 and successfully taught French to my children. I am also part of cross-cultural programs for expatriates in French-speaking countries (France and Belgium).
Being a mother of 4 children, a classroom volunteer (meaning with a checked background), and former psychologist, I have excellent communication and contact skills. I will customize my lessons for you...

Great first session!
Scheduling my first French session with Desiree was terrific. She created a structured plan and was encouraging and supportive, which did wonders to calm my nerves as it had been some time since I studied with a French teacher.

Absolutely the Best!
My daughter almos dropped out school because she had 30 assignments due within 4 days. It is a web based college class with no lecture. She has taken French before, but it has been several years. After meeting with Desiree for two sessions she was able to complete the assignments on time and received an A on all of them. Thank you for your help Desiree!

Excellent French tutor
My daughter is taking French online and really struggling with learning a language that way. Desiree was able to get her scheduled almost immediately and was a huge help to her. She obviously loves the language and was very skilled at identifying where my daughter was struggling and quickly forming a plan to help her.

Dedicated and patient tutor.
Desiree has been helping my daughter with her advanced high school French. She is patient and thoughtful and always goes the extra mile to make sure my daughter is prepared for the next test and has her homework complete. She explains things clearly. My daughter's comprehension and writing skills are improving every week!
