Ivy League French Tutor — From 0 to Native Fluency

Samuel N.

I fell in love with French the first time I heard it spoken at a very young age and never looked back. This passion that led me to get my BA at Yale, where I dove into the French language, literature, history, and culture.

5 years ago, I decided to move to Paris to truly live the French way. After completing advanced studies at the Sorbonne, I lived in Paris for those 5 years, deepening my understanding of French at the highest level. I'm DALF C2 certified and hold an MBA from INSEAD, giving me expertise in both academic, social, and professional contexts.

I know personally what the journey from 0 to native fluency is like.

Now back in Dallas, I teach French to students and professionals who want genuine fluency grounded in culture and meaning. Whether you're preparing for AP exams, DELF/DALF certification, or want to enrich yourself and your relationship with the French language, literature, history, and culture, it would my pleasure to teach you.

I work with all ages, levels, and backgrounds of learners, from grade-school students with a budding passion, to business executives looking to seal their next deal, to retirees contemplating their next great journey. My only requirement is that you put not only your mind but your heart into our classes, and that we have fun while doing it!

I tutor to help people move beyond functional French to truly feel the language. I prefer to take a full immersion approach (as much as possible!) in my tutoring approach. There is nothing quite like the thrill of having your first dream in French.

If you're drawn to French way—and want to know the language by heart—let's get started.

Allons-y !
