French Grammar and French conversation, culture, exercices, questions, translations

I take into account the way of learning of each person and I adapt the class to the needs of the students.
I offer classes that are various and interesting, we use articles, videos, exercises, and conversations on topics that are meaningful to you. Your progress, motivation, and fun is of great importance to me!

Besides helping you to become more fluent in French, I have a passion for French Grammar.
I have been teaching French for more than 15 years and I enjoy explaining difficult things in a simple way with clear examples. I can answer any question about French Grammar or make you practice what you know in theory.

For beginners, I use the book Alter Ego+ A1 with which I had great results over the years.
For advanced students, I use mainly videos and conversation.
I can help you to prepare the DELF as I am an official examiner.

We got off to a great start!
Had a birth chart session with Catherine a couple weeks back. It was a great session with many insights. Catherine is very communicative and adjusts the reading to your interests and needs. I would recommend it to anyone!
Catherine is patient and a great teacher with a good paced program. After 3 lessons I already feel progress. I'll definitely continue with her.
It was great working with Catherine! She is very patient and accommodating to my needs.
It was the perfect time to have my astrological reading done. Catherine was able to clearly communicate where I am currently at, how my personality, energy and being works and what may or may not work for me and why. You truly notice her depth of experience with astrology. Very thankful to have found her.
...
I've been reading and explaining Astrological charts for 30 years. I can read and analyze your chart based on your date of birth, I like even better to teach Astrology so you learn to interpret yourself. Astrology is a fascinating symbolic system that gives great insight and self-knowledge. A reading includes a chart interpretation with strengths and challenges and about 1 year of forecast. I also do readings for relationships (partners, child and parent, business partners, potential partners...) Don't hesitate to contact me for more information.
Non-Violent Communication is a method invented by Marshall Rosenberg. It focuses on feelings and needs, it helps to develop empathy and communicate more clearly. I can teach you and help you to practise the 4 steps (Observation, Feelings, Needs, Request) and support you in a difficult situation.

Ask a question

Send a message explaining your needs and Catherine will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.
Ex. "Hi, when are you available to meet for a lesson?"
