Hello and welcome! 😊

I teach French to adults (levels A1 to B2) and kids, and I’d love to help you on your journey to mastering the French language!

French is my native language, and I teach it with passion, kindness, and lots of patience. My lessons are all about you—your goals, your level, and your needs. Together, we’ll work on practical French that you can actually use in your daily life. And most importantly? I believe learning should be fun! When you enjoy the process, you learn faster.

What can you expect from my lessons?
Every lesson is carefully tailored to you. Here’s how we’ll work:

For adults: We’ll focus on improving your speaking skills, with just the right amount of grammar and exercises to keep things balanced. I use real-life materials that are easy to remember and super practical. You’ll also get access to my PowerPoint presentations and curated links to keep learning on your own, at your own pace.
For kids: Learning French is fun with me! I use playful, engaging methods like Cap Sur and Les Petits Loustics. Through games, pictures, songs, videos, role-plays, and more, kids learn naturally in a relaxed, happy environment.

I also offer small group lessons (up to 4 students of the same level) if you enjoy learning with others!

Whether you’re learning French for work, school, travel, or just for fun, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Book a session with me, and let’s discuss your goals and create a personalized plan just for you.

My first lesson was quite sweaty. I have now discovered that I still have a lot to learn! But... Valérie is a good, patient teacher! She will definitely help me further.
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
The lessons are very interesting and learning time is passing fast. They help me a lot with French conversations.
Valérie is a great teacher who combines methodical preparation for classes, vast experience with a laid-back approach.
It was the first lesson, but I feel comfortable with Valerie. Reason why I did not leave a feedback at once is the lack of internet in the place where I was. I am looking forward to have my second lesson in a few days.
Welcome to French Class! 🇫🇷✨For children 👧👦🫶 I’m Valerie, an experienced French teacher working with the Alliance Française in collaboration with the European School. I’ve been teaching kids online for years, and here’s the thing — it works amazingly well! Parents are often skeptical at first. I get it. Online learning can sound a bit... off. But surprise! Kids love it. Why does it work so well? ✅ They’re at home, comfy and relaxed — no stress, no pressure. ✅ Learning feels natural and fun, with games, songs, videos, and even role-plays to keep things interesting. ✅ We create together! From crafts and memory games to designing fun activities they can even share and play with their parents afterward. ✅ It’s super convenient for parents. No driving around, just a simple click, and voilà! I teach children aged 6 to 12 online, and they’re absolutely thriving. Some are even preparing for their DELF A2, B1, or B2 exams with great results. And if you’re wondering if it’s worth trying — why not just give it a go? You might be surprised at how much your child loves it. Ready to start learning French in a funny way ? Contact me, and let’s get going 🎲🎯💛

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

French courses for students in school and students who would like to improve in the language.
French is one of the most influential languages in the world. Knowing how to speak, read and write it while understanding the significant accuracy of the words used is an asset that unfortunately very few master. My lessons are based on my student's expectations, the areas in which he wants to work will be implemented.
