Hey my name is Kenza, welcome to my profile Bonjour, je m’appelle Kenza. Je suis titulaire d’une licence en économie que j’ai obtenue en 2021. Depuis quatre ans, j’enseigne le français et l’anglais dans un centre de soutien scolaire au Maroc, principalement auprès de lycéens. Cette expérience m’a permis de développer mes compétences pédagogiques et surtout de comprendre l’importance d’adapter ma méthode aux besoins et au niveau de chaque élève. Actuellement, je travaille dans le domaine de l’assurance, mais l’enseignement a toujours été ma véritable passion, et c’est pour cette raison que je souhaite aujourd’hui rejoindre iTalki. Je suis une personne très active et sociable, j’aime beaucoup échanger avec les autres. Pendant mon temps libre, j’aime lire, nager et courir. J’ai hâte de partager ma passion pour les langues et d’aider mes futurs étudiants à progresser dans une ambiance agréable et motivante.

Etudiant Parisien, curieux de discuter avec vous J'ai déjà eu l'occasion de donner des cours de toutes sortes à un jeune collégien à Paris. J'ai également aidé mes petites soeurs dans leurs différents devoirs. Ce genre d'expérience m'a appris la patience. Cela m'a également appris à me mettre à la place de l'élève, faire preuve d'empathie et comprendre ce qui pour lui ou elle pose problème dans la compréhension de l'exercice. En bref je sais être à l'écoute.

STOP scrolling, let's talk ! I'm from Serbia, but I live in France. I went to bilingual (french/serbian) High school in Belgrade. Afterwards, I got my Master's Degree in Law at university of Reims in France. After years of working in the legal field, I decided to change my career path, so I’m currently back at university studying translation from BCMS languages into French and vice versa. Foreign languages have always been my passion, and I love sharing that passion with others. That’s how I got into teaching languages! I always start by brief conversation with my students so I can understand their needs and expectations. Every student is different and the most important thing is to adjust my lessons to everyone. At first, you will tell me what do you wish to work on, either conversational or grammar skills, then I will prepare your lessons accordingly. At the end, you will tell me if that's what you were expecting and what would you like to work on next time.

French | Premium | CEFR | Daily - Business - Conversation | TCF - DELF - DALF | I design 1-to-1 French lessons based on your use cases. I'm Alexis, a graduate of Sciences Po and the Sorbonne. I'm also a certified TCF examiner. When we start, I assess your level and needs. I check your goals and the contexts in which you might use French. Then, I plan lessons around who you are: your exams or your work, your travels or your relocation, your personal life or your professional projects, etc. All your communications with other people will guide what we work on. I use CEFR descriptors to pick up activities and and build up materials for your profile. Your scenario starts with discovery then learning before moving into free solo practice. Sessions may include vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, listening, reading, writing, conversation or simulation. You develop reception, production, interaction and mediation. We work on linguistic capacity as well as pragmatic and sociolinguistic skills. For business French, we use emails and documents from your field. We also work on meetings. For exam preparation, we focus on the test format and methods that address your current gaps. For general French, I use your routine, priorities, hobbies and current projects. Between sessions, you receive homework, and I also share reports and corrections. The goal is to help you use French more independently and feel confident, including when you need time to find a word. If this approach fits your needs, send me a message and tell me about you!

Passionné par ma langue maternelle, j'adore l'enseigner et la partager avec des personnes du monde entier 🌍.

I learned English while travelling; it's not perfect, but I'm understood. I offer conversational French sessions — no textbooks, no boring grammar drills. Just real, flowing conversation adapted entirely to you: your level, your goals, your interests. Whether you want to talk about sports, travel, food, culture, or just get comfortable ordering a coffee in Paris — I'll meet you where you are and help you sound more natural, more confident, and more French. I speak French natively, English fluently, and I'm currently learning Mandarin — so I understand firsthand what it feels like to learn a language from scratch. That experience makes me a more patient and empathetic conversation partner. My sessions work for: — Complete beginners who want a gentle, supportive start — Intermediate learners who want to gain fluency and lose hesitation — Advanced speakers who want to refine their accent or vocabulary — Anyone preparing for a trip to France or a French-speaking country What makes my sessions different: I adapt in real time. Ready to speak French like you mean it? Book a trial session and let's talk. 我是法语母语者,很高兴能帮你学法语!

    Josie is amazing! I really wanted to improve my conversational skills, and I chose her because she seemed dynamic and fun in her video. I’m now more than 20 lessons in and I can definitely confirm that she is not only engaging and easy to talk to, but also incredibly diligent, energetic, smart, thoughtful and hilarious. I expected that we would simply chat in French for an hour each week, and we definitely do that, which has improved my speaking ability immensely. But Josie also goes out of her way to make her lessons as comprehensive and personalized as possible. I moved to France a year and a half ago, and she has been very thoughtful about structuring lessons that will help me to navigate daily life in France and give me exposure to important cultural references. She also tries to make my French less formal and textbook, and more colloquial and natural, which I appreciate immensely. In short, she’s pretty much the idea French teacher!

Grâce à son excellente méthode d'enseignement et à ses explications claires, mon niveau de préparation au TEF s'est considérablement amélioré. Elle sait identifier les points à renforcer et propose des stratégies efficaces pour progresser rapidement. J'apprécie énormément son dévouement, son sérieux et la qualité de son travail.

Merci beaucoup pour votre excellent travail et votre soutien constant !

    Learning French

    During the lessons, I discussed a lot of TCF speaking topics with Rim, for example, environmental issues and health topics. I learned how to organize my speech and how to speak more fluently in French. Also, Rim encouraged me to think of different angles for each topic. She definitely helped me a lot in preparing for the exam.

  • 杨雪微 Xuewei Yang

    I really enjoyed this lesson. Molka was patient and clear, explaining grammar points in simple, practical ways instead of just going over textbook rules. She encouraged me to speak up and gently corrected my mistakes, which helped build my confidence. The class pace suited me perfectly, and the materials were well-prepared. I felt I made visible progress in this session. I highly recommend this teacher. Looking forward to our next lesson!

  • Silindile Shozi

    Learning French

    Brian is perfect for anyone who wants to practise actually speaking French, rather than having someone speak mostly English and never really learning the language. He is patient and understanding, and even when I feel like giving up, he explains things again in slower French. That has been perfect for me as someone who has tried to learn French before but felt like I wasn’t progressing. His lessons push you to speak French, which has been really helpful for my development. If you want to actually learn to speak and have real conversations in French—not just memorise vocabulary that may not feel practical—I would definitely recommend him.

Virginie has been pivotal to my improvement as she takes notes during our conversations, so that I know where I need to improve. I feel relaxed and encouraged in my lessons with Virginie.

    Gaëlle is an absolutely wonderful teacher! My 8-year-old daughter Margaret has only recently started learning French, and she already looks forward to every lesson. Gaëlle has a fantastic way of connecting with children. She is energetic, creative, patient, and makes learning feel like fun rather than schoolwork. They sing, laugh, play, and learn together, and Margaret genuinely enjoys every minute. As a parent, I couldn’t be happier. Finding a teacher who can inspire a child to love a new language is something special. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Gaëlle, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a wonderful French teacher!

Frequently asked questions about online French classes

What is the fastest way to learn to speak French?

The fastest way to learn to speak French is with an online French tutor. Working with a tutor ensures your time is focused on the skills that matter most, mistakes are corrected immediately, and your lessons adapt to your level and goals.

To make the most of your learning, take private French lessons tailored to your current level and goals, schedule conversational French classes to practice speaking in real situations and build confidence, and track your progress to adjust focus. Your French teacher can pinpoint weak spots, like pronunciation or verb usage, so every session helps you improve steadily. You can also access free French learning resources, which will help you develop your grammar and vocabulary, and writing skills. This coupled with an italki French tutor will help you on your path to French fluency.

What is the 80/20 rule for learning French?

The 80/20 rule suggests that roughly 20% of what you study produces about 80% of your progress. For French learners, this means focusing on the high-value areas that you use most: common verbs, everyday vocabulary, core grammar patterns, and regular speaking practice.

On italki, a French tutor can help you apply the 80/20 rule by identifying the skills and topics that matter most for your goals. Instead of spending time on rarely used grammar or obscure vocabulary, your private French tutor guides your online French lessons to stay focused, helping you see progress faster.

Are private French tutors worth it?

Yes, private French tutors are worth it if you want faster, noticeable progress in your French learning.

Hiring a private French tutor is worth it because:

  • Lessons are tailored to your goals, whether it’s French lessons for beginners or French conversation classes.
  • You get immediate feedback on pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary.
  • One-on-one attention ensures you actively practice speaking in every lesson.
  • Tutors can adjust your French lessons online to focus on your strengths, weaknesses, and learning pace.

Many learners find that combining private French lessons with additional resources, like apps or podcasts, makes learning more efficient and keeps them motivated.

Can you learn French without a tutor?

Yes, you can learn French without a tutor, but most learners progress faster when they work with a French tutor or an online French tutor.

A French tutor helps you:

  • 🗣️ Build correct pronunciation from the start
  • 🛠️ Fix pronunciation and grammar issues before they become habits
