French Lessons & Classes in Brighton

I will tailor my lessons to each student's need, French is one of my native languages and I am certified to teach it K-12. I am a full time French teacher at Slippery rock Area High School and available to teach online after school and weekends.

Hi, I'm Jacqueline and I specialize in French tutoring for students of all ages. I have taught over 120 French students including at most local Bay Area schools as well as many out-of-state. I work with each student to create a program tailored to their individual goals and needs. I can help you with all aspects of French including grammar, conversation, vocabulary, and overall fluency.

My lessons are unique because I am native French. I am form Normandie. I speak English fluently and got a bachelor degree in Art and Music. I have lived here for 10 years.

I have a B.A. in French from Texas A&M University, I studied abroad in Switzerland. I have experience as a high school French tutor.

I specialize in beginners and people who want to work on minimizing their American accents when learning French.

The first thing I want to know is what the student wants help with and then we go from there. I taught middle school French for many years, tutored French once I retired in Maryland, have lived in France for two years and love teaching a subject I'm passionate about. My students tell me that I explain things in terms they can understand and that they love how excited I am about French. "It's contagious!" They also enjoy the anecdotes I share about French culture and traveling in France. I am also a travel writer and wrote a book about my travels, "Gap Year Girl: A Baby Boomer Adventure Across 21 Countries."

Bonjour!

I grew up about twenty minutes from the border with France and got to go there regularly from early on. I started learning French when I was 12 and started teaching it when I was 15 because, believe it or not, I enjoy the sometimes weird grammatical complexities of French.

At university I took advanced classes to continue learning and when I went to study in Canada I lived in a shared house with six native speakers of Canadian and European French. This year I spent the spring in Morocco and Togo where I got to experience two more varieties French.

I consider myself highly Francophile, enjoy reading in French and take pleasure in teaching it. Explaining grammar, spelling, pronunciation and difficult features of the language are my assets as I have been largely successful in sharing them with students, friends and acquaintances over the years.

Allons-y! :)

Be ready to fall more in love with the language. One more lesson will get you closer to know the language.

I am advanced in the French language and I have just spent one year in France. I will incorporate speaking French the entire time to really immerse a student into the language and can help with connecting to native French speakers.

I am bilingual. With me you will be learning French authentically, you will not be filled with homework or that sort but you will be interacting and speaking with me more because that is the #1 and fastest method to capture a new language.
