Private teachers in Belgium

Jade is a truly excellent teacher of the French language with whom I have been having lessons for over a year. She’s is not only a native French speaker, but holds degrees in Linguistics, Teaching and Business, and has significant experience of teaching French over many years. The benefit of this is that she is able to effortlessly teach at any level, with a focus on actually speaking the language in conversation. We have had discussions about things as simple as ordering food in a restaurant to subjects as complex as planning application submissions and urbanism rules (I am an architect). I am certainly not a natural linguist, but through her teaching I have gone from someone who was nervous about ordering a croissant in French, to gaining the confidence to deal with the complex language found in the workplace, and in day-to-day life in France. I would highly recommend Jade, whether you are visiting Paris for a short holiday and want to brush up on some vocabulary, or have moved here permanently and want to broaden your command of the French language.

I had about 12 lessons with Rose over the course of three weeks. Each lesson was two hours long and was in a small group of three of us--me and my two teenage daughters. We had a great time and learned a lot. Rose was wonderful. She was very reliable and came prepared with a good mix of learning material for us every day. She always had challenging material for us to practice on, but she mixed it up with easier songs and videos and games so we could rest our brains when we became tired from focusing for so long. As you can imagine, having her students be a mom and two teenage daughters wasn't always easy for Rose. We have our own family dynamics and she might have felt awkward at times, but she managed us very well. One of my daughters is very shy and Rose was extremely patient and kind with her. I highly recommend Rose as a tutor. And, I highly recommend encouraging your friends and family to join you for lessons if you are at about the same level of language experience. We had a lot of fun and our French improved a great deal.

Peter is a great professional and I will recommend him to everyone who wants to learn or to improve the language. Peter prepared me for the interview for my dream job - I am sure if you are not a native speaker there is always a possibility for improvements :) He also gave me useful recommendations regarding the interview in general because he knows the system perfectly and reads between the lines. Peter adapted every class based on my needs and I saw the progress immediately. Important to mention it's obvious that he enjoys every class and really wants people to know his language :)
