French lessons / French as a Foreign Language for adults / Conversation

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Journalist in the written press for 20 years and trainer for 6 years in French as a Foreign Language, I offer French lessons for foreign / non-French speaking adults. I am a trainer in a private establishment and I have also been a volunteer in a socio-linguistic workshop for migrants since 2018 for Médecins du Monde in Toulouse. I created my training company in French and I am self-entrepreneur. I live in Toulouse and I can move around the Toulouse region and the Gers. For learners who live abroad, lessons are done via Google Meet, Zoom or WhatsApp.
After a first assessment which will allow us to define your needs, we will improve your knowledge of the French language and the fluidity of your conversations in French. My goal is to make your French perfectly understandable and to give you back your daily autonomy thanks to the practice of this language. I will provide you with suitable written and audio material.
We will talk a lot and in a good mood! I also speak English, Italian and Spanish when needed. I can come to your workplace during your breaks or to your home. I also offer webcam lessons.
I can also help you proofread and correct your manuscripts, internship reports, dissertations, theses as well as the writing of your administrative or professional documents. I offer refresher courses in French for adults.

If French is your mother tongue but you need a refresher in writing... Do not penalize your professional development. Let's find together the basics of the French language. Spelling, conjugation, grammar, French will find all its flavor in your writings. No more meeting minutes, activity reports or emails full of mistakes! You will regain self-confidence, and will be able to project yourself into the future to develop your professional career.
I also offer you the correction, proofreading, rewriting and reformatting of your personal or professional documents as soon as possible. A job that we will do together during the lessons.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I give French lessons, on a voluntary basis, to foreign adults for Médecins du Monde by leading a socio-linguistic workshop. It is a group of migrants whose level of French is A1.1, A1 or A2.
I also teach French to foreign employees working in French companies. Their level varies from A1 to B2. I go to their workplace during their break time.

The teaching of French to children is more focused on academic support for students from CE1 to college.
I am used to children because I am the mother of an adorable little boy!
I am patient and I try to make my lessons as fun as possible.

I only had one of five lessons and it is very obvious that Mary is a very experienced teacher. I am looking forward to be learning with her.
Mary is a trained teacher, with a method that is functional to everyone's needs, which makes the lesson fun and very effective at the same time. I strongly recommend it to all those who want to learn French well and at the same time also want to learn it in a simple and fun way!

Lucie
Private lessons and tutoring in French, English and Spanish
Graduated from a Masters in Comparative Literature and a Masters in Literary Translation, currently a freelance translator, I offer tutoring courses for middle and high school students in French. I have already accompanied several students in their preparation for the French bac, who have all made good progress. With my students, I insist on acquiring a good methodology to succeed, and put special emphasis on self-confidence: text commentary and essay should not be scary exercises! I work with the texts studied in class and adapt to the student's needs: revisions, feedback on corrected homework, preparation for oral exams, writing exercises ... I can also help students learn English and Spanish, which are my working languages. We look forward to meeting you, and taking part of the literary journey together, Lucia

Translation techniques English to french/ french to english
Kids don't remember what you try to teach them. They remember what you are.” Jim Henson I live my profession by this motto and quality teaching has always been my first and foremost concern ever since i stepped in a classroom. The great teacher is someone who grows along with his or her student. Imparting a "savoir-faire" and a "savoir-être" is paving the way to success. Both teacher and student are complementary and the relationship should be that of trust and faith, then only can one claim to be a great teacher

French lessons (grammar, literature, written and oral expression).
This course aims to give a better command and knowledge of the French language, its history and its literature, by adapting to the needs and desires of each one. The grammar modules will make it possible to fix the functioning of the language, and will consist of lessons and application exercises. In terms of language learning, we will work on both written and oral expression. We will also discuss pages of French literature, in order to sketch their history and make the exercise of text commentary more accessible.

Phillip
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!

And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your shortcomings and monitor your progress. -------------------------------------- Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF: The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas.
