French Lessons in Green Valley North. Amazing Teachers.

My strong interest for languages oriented me towards a "Literature Baccalaureate" for which I studied - among other fields - German, English, Ancient Greek and Latin, and graduated Summa cum Laude in 2010. After high school, I went on to study for five years at Sciences Po Paris, France's elite school for social and political sciences.

Learning about the hidden history of words and the construction of sentences has always fascinated me, and I strongly believe that this is what makes the difference between a regular native speaker, and one who can actually transmit his knowledge of the language. Writing and speaking a proper french is not enough. When it comes to teaching, one has to be able to explain the "why" behind each word, idiom and grammatical rule, because that is how we remember best. Combined with a burning desire to understand movies, songs and books in their original version, this method makes wonders. Because as my best teacher once told me : “ We get into a culture ...

In my teaching
• I design each lesson based on your immediate and practical needs, your individual learning style, as well as your interests

Well as you can see it I am Carla and I speak French, Haitian Creole and English, I am also working on my Spanish. Anyway, French lessons will be unique with me because as someone that is young I have a lot of different methods on how to teach french. I will not only use some old methods like books but also music and videos because i believe it is one of the best way to teach a language and that's how I learned how to speak English. However, we will also have practice on how to pronounce the words and make sure we can get the best out of you. At the end of each session our goal is for you to be satisfied so you could remember something in French. I know it takes a lot to speak a language but with the determination, together we will achieve our goal.

Bonjour a tous!

Dear French Students,

A native French speaker, I have been tutoring students of all levels since 2008. I was the main French and German Instructor at the San Jose Learning Center in the Silicon Valley before moving to New York.

The core of my lessons are drawn from a language book, which allows everyone to work at his or her own pace during the week.

The lessons always begin with a dialogue, no matter your level. From how you are feeling, to what you did during the week, to the weather of your best friend's gossip, we warm up with a conversation I type out as we go.

The rest of the lesson is then spent reviewing previous work and introducing new material in a variety of ways, constantly setting a rule in practice. Poems, songs or texts, depending on your interest, keep the content alive and interesting.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I hope to hear from you, meet you, and work with you!

Sincerely,
Gabrielle
