My course is intended for non-francophone adults of all levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced). Using a recognized and effective learning method like the Alter Ego method as well as all the specialized works in French as a foreign language, my course has a complete and varied content. All the didactic materials adopted during the course such as press articles, literature texts, films, audio media and others bring to class an optimal dynamic. Therefore, they offer a more practical approach to the language and understand all aspects of French and Swiss culture. Each daily class includes progressive learning of grammar, spelling, conjugation and vocabulary. Conscious of the importance of fluency in spoken language, I also devote a large part to speaking and conversation.
Practice leads to perfection Unless you learned to speak French when you were a child, it is difficult when you don't speak it fluently to pass for a French speaker. However, this does not prevent you from learning to speak it correctly, because it is well known that a language spoken with a foreign accent is an asset of seduction! Although it may seem complicated, learning a new language is always fun and beneficial, so it is important to practice as much as possible and above all not to give up. Take every opportunity you are given to speak the language and listen to French as soon as possible. And remember: practice leads to perfection!

Anne is a great teacher, she is kind, enthusiastic and bright and she goes above and beyond to reach the goals previously stated. She is eager to understand what you need from the classes and to support the process to the best of her abilities. I am learning a lot.
Very good
I have been taking French lessons with Anne for 4 months now. I am an absolute beginner but Anne has been very patient and she helps me learn the language in an enjoyable way. I am busy with my work and often have to change my schedule. I really appreciate her for being understanding and flexible by accommodating my request whenever she can. It's also very helpful that she is very easy to reach. For the lessons, she makes me read and repeat a lot. It helps me get used to making the French sounds, which are not easy! It's great that she has a few different textbooks so we can pick and use the one that fits my level and my preference. I recommend her to everyone at all level!
I have been learning with Anne for almost 8 months now. I cannot even begin to thank Anne for her amazing teaching skills and how much she has helped me. I have struggled with French for years and I finally found a teacher who both pushed me but is also patient and accommodating to my needs. I was also hesitant at first to have an online teacher, but her teaching methods and skills actually made it easier that she was online, also in terms of managing my time and schedule with her, I did not feel that anything hindered my progress having her online. Her great personality and experience as a teacher overall further helped with my fear and difficulty in learning French, and having her as an online teacher. And finally, she has a great teaching structure and a curriculum and material (which was important for me) to provide for the student through structured classes, while taking into account the strengths and weaknesses of the student. Thank you very much Anne for everything.
I have been taking Anne's courses for about 3 months. The online courses have offered great flexibility and the experience is no less positive for me compared to in-person courses. In addition, it allows flexibility to take the courses during busy work hours. Anne is a great teacher who is very experienced in teaching French, who is excellent at helping me understand the language, and who gives me constructive advice in the process of learning French. I feel confident about my progress and I appreciate Anne's attentiveness and detail-oriented guidance during our courses.
