Private teachers in France

I had the pleasure of receiving personal lessons from Élodie while I was visiting Brussels from NYC. It was a gift to myself, a standup comedian, to practice using my voice for a different kind of self expression. During the pandemic, I suffered a lot of sadness, like many people, and I could not bring myself to tell jokes. Élodie helped me to sing songs and taught me techniques that helped to heal my heart, and my throat Chakra. I am eternally grateful for her teaching style, and I even had the honor of dueting with her. Élodie is such an amazing instructor, with a beautiful voice, and an even warmer spirit. I felt comfortable, encouraged, and increasingly confident in my abilities the more I worked with her. And did i mention how much FUN it was?! No matter your starting level, I highly recommend Élodie, and hope to work with her again sometime :)

I started classes with Madeira in preparation for an interview to a French Medical School. While I had a fairly okay level of French already, Madeira really helped me polish my language skills and achieve the level of refinement and ease in my formal conversational skills which I needed for my interview. She was able to expertly identify what areas I needed to improve upon, and through her exercises and feedback I was able to greatly improve my oral skills. Madeira was also incredibly receptive to any requests that I had regarding things which I wanted to work on, and she went above and beyond in helping me understand technical portions of French grammar with which I have always had issues. Overall, I strongly recommend Madeira as a French teacher to anyone attempting to improve on their French skills.

Debrah came in with a lovely smile and immediately made us feel at ease. She sat down on the floor with my daughter, which was such a kind and thoughtful gesture. She was both professional and gentle, allowing my daughter to approach things at her own pace. That really meant a lot to us. She has also created a clear plan for us to follow, which we really appreciate. We think you’re amazing, lovely Debrah — thank you so much. See you tomorrow!
