The Best French Lessons & Tutors in Carefree, AZ

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Rachel. I am a native French speaker, born in Paris, France and raised in Casablanca, Morocco. Not only will I be able to help you learn classroom French, I can help you hone your accent, and teach you slang to boot!

French is my second language, but it often feels as it if were the first, as I have been speaking it for many years on an everyday and professional basis. My grammar is excellent, as I learned the rules in junior high school in the Paris suburbs (grammar is an important part of French schooling). I edited a 240-page scholarly book, De La Case A La Villa (published 2014), and I give both private and group lessons.
