French Classes, provided by a French native speaker.You always wanted to learn French ? Discover the culture and chat about the richness of French History ? Do not wait any longer, you are at the good place!
I provide classes for all levels, from beginners to advanced level. The teaching is in English but I can do some efforts to speak mandarin.
Before all, let me introduce myself. To describe myself, I am a French Student, from Reims (the capital of champagne!). Currently living in Songjiang for this year 2024-2025. I am studying in SISU university.
So, my purpose is to provide French classes to make you discover or enhance your knowledge of the France and French. To achieve that, I organise my class according to various topics: I can teach only the language for itself, but if you are interested I can teach history and geography and overall French culture. It is up to you if you want to focus on a specific point :).
More specific, about the languages courses: they consist in a progressive deep dive in French. Indeed, you will learn more about French grammar (that is not so difficult, despite one can think) and vocabulary. The goal of this class is to give you appropriate tools to speak and understand French if you want to go travel there or to have a conversation in French.
About History, Geography and Culture I can make you learn a lot about History from Ancient times, about the kings or the great French Revolution! Also, I study political sciences in France so I am inclined to teach on a lot of subject and to ask your questions.
If you are interested by my classes or want to ask questions please, do not hesitate to send me a message :).
