I work only with adults!
Coucou 😉,
I’m Victoria — a patient, creative, and certified French language teacher.
I’m here to help you transform your French learning with a structured system that teaches you to have real-life conversations and apply what you’ve learned from exercises in speaking.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in linguistics and have learned 2 foreign languages as an adult. With my knowledge and experience, I’ll guide you to progress in the best way possible. Living in France allows me to teach you the authentic, everyday French we actually use in conversations.
I’m a curious and open-minded person who loves discussing various topics with my students.

Me as a Teacher
I specialize in teaching (absolute) beginners and low intermediate levels.
I'm very patient and supportive and my students always feel comfortable at making thier first steps/small conversations in French. My students are not afraid of talking and making mistakes. But I will always correct you and explain you how to say it in the "french way".
I'm deeply commited to helping you achieve your goal and speak French in daily life situations ( speaking to your French family, shopassistants, neighbours, civil servants, etc). I adapt my lessons to your goal, specific needs, your interests and pace of learning. I'm also open to your suggestions, because every person learns in their own way.
My lessons & teaching style
I offer a structured, communicative approach to help you make progress in French and gradually build your knowledge and confidence. My lessons are both engaging — I always adapt them to your situation, interests, and needs — and practical, so you can immediately apply what you learn in real conversations.
In my lessons, you are the main character: you speak most of the time to practice the grammar or vocabulary we’re working on. I enjoy using authentic French — real conversations from videos, series, movies, and podcasts — to teach you the language as it’s spoken in everyday life.
My support doesn’t stop when the lesson end. I provide homework to help you reinforce what we’ve covered.

Victoria is really helpful and patient with me, as a beginner I'm wanting to run before I can walk... and Victoria is helping to make me feel comfortable with learning and understanding that making mistakes is part of the journey. Thank you Victoria!
