Private French tutor in Sydney
Teacher joined in September 2019
I was born in France and have been living in Sydney for three years. I love teaching, taking the time to understand the students and find the best way to teach them. I've been teaching French for over 2 years to teenagers and adults of all levels and in 2022 I obtained a certification to teach French as a foreign language delivered by the Alliance Francaise. I can help you prepare for exams like the IB (ab initio to high level), have casual conversations and everything in between. French is a challenge but I believe my enthusiasm paired with your motivation to learn will guarantee your success !

Laura(15 reviews)France Sydney, New South Wales, AustraliaImprove your French with a native teacher
Teacher joined in May 2019
Hi, it's Laura. How are you? For my background! I am a full-time French tutor and French native speaker who has been living in Sydney for 7 years now. I work with various private French and tutoring schools and for myself, I speak fluently French, English and Creole (can send you self-intro videos in these languages if needed). I have students of all ages from 12 years old and levels, no matter their reason for learning French (good school grades, HSC, IBDP, DELF, DALF, Travel, fun, Immigration etc) but I am specialised in IB and expatriation. I use professional materials and books following the CEFR levels (The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages). The sessions' content and methodology vary depending on the students' levels, their ages, curriculum/goals and interests. I offer conversational practice sessions too and "french café or restaurant" activities. I translate news articles with some advanced students. If you want to become fluent in French and expatriate yourself as I did, you found your coach! I can also focus on specific real practical skills as required (prepare for a professional interview for example). The French tutoring sessions I provide are delivered online by a video teleconference platform such as Zoom. This allows me to provide higher quality lessons at a more affordable price as no travelling is required. Each French tutoring session includes the following: - Personalised French lessons and content for your level and interests - Study material provided - Homework for you practice in your own time (optional) - Access to your document online containing notes after each lesson to help you improve - Recordings of our session for you to keep so you can refer back to our sessions at any time. This is great for practising pronunciation! Each hour of personalised French tutoring is $50 but only $45 for my students who pay for 10 or more hours of sessions in advance. Most of my students take one 1 hour lesson per week. However, if you wanted to improve faster, we could arrange for more lessons per week or even have a longer session once per week. If you are interested in the discounted 10hrs pack but don't want to commit to it on your first lesson, you can upgrade after and I will refund the discount amount on your first lesson. When would you like to start? What are your available time slots (you can give me 5 at least from Monday to Saturday from 8 am up to 7:30 pm). Cheers Laura Working With Children Number: WWC2133608E Type of Clearance: Valid for paid and unpaid work Expiry Date: 2025 HLTAID004 FIRST AID CERTIFICATE in Care and Education Settings.

Apart of English, I speak fluent Spanish and have an intermediate level in Russian if one of those languages can be of any help to you. :) The French tutoring sessions I provide are delivered online by a video teleconference platform such as Zoom.

A) My goal is to hold kids and adults’ interest, to immerse them, to make French fun and to foster conversation when it’s possible. So I try to get to my disposal all sorts of fun French teaching resources to find the best coherence topic : Greeting, colors, numbers, animals…. Then I do class in three steps: 1. Warm-up: I use flashcards, engaging pictures or videos. 2. Reading: I use French about my above concepts. 3. Then Practice Activity/Conversation: I Use games . I use body language and a range of nonverbal signals to communicate my feelings and intentions. Conclusion: more the students focus on listening and repeating, better are their pronunciation. 28 is my reference number .(TEFL source)

French FAQs

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:
- France
- Canada
- Belgium
- Cameroon
- The Democratic Republic of Congo
- The Ivory Coast
- Niger
- Mali
- Djibouti
- Switzerland
- Seychelles
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,
- Diplôme Initial de Langue Française (DILF)
- Diplôme d'Études en Langue Française (DELF)
- Diplôme Approfondi de Langue Française (DALF)
It helps to know that there are six levels of DELF AND DALF. They are,
- DELF A1: Beginner or breakthrough
- DELF A2: Elementary or way stage
- DELF B1: Intermediate or threshold
- DELF B2: Upper-intermediate or vantage
- DALF C1: Advanced or effective operational proficiency
- DALF C2: Near-native or mastery
Other french proficiency tests are,
- The European Language Certificates (TELC) which is available in 11 languages including French.
- Test d'Evaluation de Français (TEF)
- Test de Connaissance du Français (TCF)
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.
Can My TUTOROO Private Tutor Me for French Proficiency Tests like DELF and DALF?
Yes. TUTOROO private French tutors are experienced and certified with most of them being genuine native speakers. As a learner, you can work with your French tutor to arrange your sessions according to your schedule.
Having a native speaker teach you French for DELF and DALF not only ensures you pass the tests but also get high grades. Our tutors have previously taught students for french proficiency tests and are passionate about sharing their culture and knowledge with learners.
Owing to the nature of French proficiency tests, learners are tested based on writing, speaking, listening and reading, an online tutor may not cut it. Having a private French tutor allows learners to smash their goals while focusing on the four skills the tests are based on.
Can I Change My Tutor if I'm Not Satisfied With Their Competence or Style?
There are several French tutors on TUTOROO, each with a unique style and expertise. Typically, the TUTOROO team facilitates and coordinates the tutor recruitment process for learners to ensure they are paired with a tutor that matches their budget, needs and wants.
We provide students with a large database of tutors and give them the freedom to either accept or refuse our top selection. However, in the event you're not pleased with your tutors' style of teaching or competence, you can request another French tutor.
Why Should I Learn French?
Not only is French an easy language to learn, but it also makes learning other romance languages like Italian, Spanish and Portuguese easy. Also, aside from English, French is the only language that is taught globally. Here are five reasons you should learn French:
- It is the language of international relations with the European Union having its headquarters in three french speaking cities; Brussels, Strasbourg and Luxembourg.
- It is the language of love and has a rich culture of arts, dancing, cooking and architecture.
- Speaking French allows you to study in renowned French higher institutions.
- Fluency in French gives you an edge in the international job market.
- French is the second most learned language in the world after English.
