I love learning languages and I do think that the best way to do it is by speaking with native people! My grandmother is Guatemalan so I also speak Spanish. In addition, I can speak English and I am still learning Portuguese. I will not give you theoretical lessons. I prefer having a conversation with you to help you feel more at ease speaking French. If you want to travel to France it could be very helpful to be able to have conversations with people here. We can talk about any topic you would like :)

Improve your French with a native tutor

Teacher joined in May, 2023

(ONLINE LESSONS ONLY) I have been working in education for more than ten years. I started to work in secondary school teaching languages and French (Rectorat de Strasbourg). I had the opportunity to give lessons in front of classes but also in private lessons and reinforcement (tutoring) in different schools. I am therefore used to teaching both in groups and individually. 👨‍🏫 🏫 I have also taught FLE and FLI (French as a Foreign Language / Integration) to adults and teenagers. I have taught in various private institutions (Alliance Française, Business School, Private Center) to a multicultural public. I adapt easily with the learners in front of me, I have had people who have just arrived in France and had not been in an educational system before. My experiences are not limited to France. I have had learners from many countries in France, online, but I also taught for 3 years in Tokyo at a language institute. During these FLE experiences, I prepared students for different FLE exams (DELF, TCF, TEF, Français Pro, Futsuken, etc.) so I can provide help for the preparation of these exams. 💪 Professional trainer also for several years, TRE, methodology, internship, etc. I also know the professional world from other experiences outside the teaching world and can give advice on orientation, job skills, and many other things. During all these years, I have been practicing homework help with diverse public, high school students, new university students, and allophones. We discussed work methodology and also help with homework, exams, etc. 🏆 With all these experiences and my knowledge of different pedagogies and methodologies, I am able to adapt to the students and I prepare an individual pedagogical progression adapted to their level, their expectations, and their learning methods. If you want to learn French but are struggling to find the right teacher, you have come to the right place! With my years of experience teaching French as a foreign language, I am confident that I can help you learn French quickly and easily. As a native French speaker, I understand the nuances of the language and can help you master French pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, I will customize your lessons to suit your level and goals.

French is my mother tongue, I am a legal adviser in a company, born and raised in France and I am also a self-taught English speaker. I was able to do so thanks to practical advice that I'm willing to share with you and that will allow anyone to become fluent in no time. It is necessary to practice and it is even more interesting when the teacher is fluent and lives in the country as it provides you with more typical references about the culture, the everyday life, and more again.

(ONLINE LESSONS ONLY) I've been teaching French for over 12 years, I got my Masters in French as a Foreign Language and traveled all around the world to teach in schools and universities. I now have settled in the south west of France where I teach online and I love it! My lessons are delivered in a casual setting, based mostly on natural conversations. When we encounter an issue, we then spend some time on it with a mini lesson. I like to give homework to students, if they want, so they can work outside of class too and learn faster! With beginners, I use a bit more structure, while trying to give you tools to have simple conversations from so early as the second lesson! French, like any language, can be easy to learn if you practice regularly but also if you have a special interest in it. That's why my lessons are tailored to you and your needs! We can do anything you want and focus on any interest you may have. I'd love to meet you and talk more about your expectations and why you are learning French!

I studied at the French school and at the Mondes France high school. Then I studied at the Letter University of Tunis. I worked for 8 years as a teacher in a Franco-Tunisian school then I gave lessons at home for 4 years. My learning method is fun and simple. I had the chance to work with students of different ages, all curious and I learned to adapt to each of them and to adapt my pedagogy so that everything goes well. My courses are accompaniments or awakenings (for the little ones) and do not aim to teach more than what is required but to allow the student to improve in the understanding and learning of the French language.

French FAQs

What are the Benefits of Learning French with a Private Tutor?

Investing time and resources in learning French with a private French tutor is always a great decision in order to master la langue de Molière. Although there are various French lessons to choose from, mostly online, platforms often don't give learners the utmost attention they need to learn French.

Thanks to private French lessons, learners have tailored learning fit for their learning needs. Here are the top benefits of taking private French lessons.

How Many Countries Employ French as an Official Language?

One of the most widely spoken languages in the world is the French language. It originated from France, as this is where the language derived its name. Getting to know how many countries speak French can boost your will to take French lessons.

Like Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, French is a romance language. From the Gallo-Romance dialect of Northern France, French replaced Latin in 1539 to be the official language of France. This declaration was made by François I.

About 29 countries in the world employ French as their official language, coming close behind English as the second most used official language in the world. Some countries that employ French either as a first language or have a large number of residents that speak French include:

Interestingly, in the European Union, French is the only spoken language in the Union's Court of Justice and it is also one of the working languages of the United Nations.

Is French Difficult to Learn?

French isn't difficult to learn. It is regarded as a category 1 language, making it similar to English and easier to learn than categories 3 and 4 hard or extremely hard languages. Also, you don't need a formal education to learn French. You can learn French online.

For native English learners, learning French shouldn't come off as difficult as both languages share the same alphabet. However, the only significant difference is the le c cédille (ç), and accent on French vowels.

With the right learning methods and a skilled private tutor, learning French is pretty easy. Your enthusiasm to learn the French language as well as motivation can outweigh whatever difficulty you encounter while learning French. One point to note when learning a new language is understanding what makes the language difficult. Once that is out of the way, you're on the path to mastering any language of your choice.

Does TUTOROO offer Hybrid French lessons?

TUTOROO offers French lessons online and physical French classes. Depending on your preference, you can combine both modes of learning to ensure you get the best learning experience.

For instance, if you're in Sydney and would rather take physical lessons, you can learn French online on our website. Hybrid lessons offer learners flexibility especially if their schedule is demanding.

What Popular French Proficiency Tests Can I Take?

French proficiency exams evaluate how well non-native French speakers are able to communicate in French in a real-life situation. Also, French proficiency tests measure a learner's French skills in writing, listening, speaking and reading. The proficiency tests are international standardized exams and are recognised worldwide.

If you wish to study in France, Canada or any country that speaks French, it's important you undergo french proficiency tests. For instance, hiring a French tutor in Brisbane can help you prepare for French proficiency tests in Brisbane with ease if you're resident there. At the end of the tests, the diplomas are proof of your French skills and can offer a chance to study in several french-speaking universities.

Additionally, a high percentage of educational institutions in French-speaking countries require that you pass the tests for postgraduate and undergraduate programmes. For workers, the demand to be fluent in French is growing in the corporate world, especially for jobs requiring the knowledge of French. You can use your certificate to show you're competent in applying for jobs that have French speaking and writing skills as a prerequisite.

The organisation conducts the French proficiency tests in line with the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Language) guidelines. French proficiency tests you can take include,

It helps to know that there are six levels of DELF AND DALF. They are,

Other french proficiency tests are,

How Soon Can I Become Fluent in French?

Becoming fluent in French not only depends on how skilled your French tutor is but also on your environment. For instance, if you stay in a place where French is the predominant language, you can grasp the language in a short period. With immersion, you can become fluent in French in about a year or less.

However, if you're learning French and you stay in a place where French isn't spoken, it may take you a longer period to become fluent in French. For instance, learners living in Melbourne may take a longer time becoming fluent in French if they aren't fully or partially immersed. Therefore, it becomes important that they get French tutors in Melbourne to speed up their fluency.

As a beginner, you can get fluent in French in a little above a year with partial French immersion. Partial French immersion involves you devoting your time to learning French with a French tutor at home.

To speed up your fluency in French using the partial immersion method, it's important that you use tools that pull you deeper into the French language. For instance, you can fill up your leisure time indulging in activities that involve French as much as you can. You can watch French movies, read French books and listen to the news in French.

How Many People in the World Speak French?

French is a popular language as about 300 million people all over the world speak French. According to the International Organisation of the Francophonie, in 2018, about 235 million people speak French daily.

The figure shows how much French has grown. As of 2005, only a little above 175 million people globally spoke French. Also, French native speakers are about 77 million globally allowing French learners to be fully or partially immersed while learning French with a French tutor.

Furthermore, the International Organisation of Francophonie estimates that by 2050, the number of French speakers will rise to 715 million with 85% of this figure coming from Africa. However, this estimate largely depends on schooling evolution and how much importance the French are given in education.
