Learn French with a practical, supportive, and speaking-focused approach for all levels. Je m'appelle Nouhaila et je viens du Maroc. J’aime cuisiner, faire des activités manuelles, me promener en nature et je suis profondément intéressée par la richesse de la langue française. Je suis souriante, dynamique et très patiente, je sais qu’il est nécessaire de créer une atmosphère agréable pour faciliter l’apprentissage; je suis attentive aux efforts des apprenants et j'aime les encourager. Ma méthode d'enseignement est ludique. Je propose des cours basés sur la discussion et l'échange. Il ne s'agit pas de faire de la théorie pure, mais de découvrir le français à travers des textes, des documents, et en pratiquant ! Lors du premier cours, je fais le point avec l'apprenant, afin de déterminer son niveau et la raison pour laquelle il apprend le français (professionnel, touristique, études, etc...). Et puis j'adapte le cours aux objectifs définis par l'apprenant. Au fil des années, j'ai su fidéliser mes élèves grâce à mon enthousiasme, mes capacités d'écoute et ma grande faculté d'adaptation aux besoins spécifiques de chacun.

Professeur spécialisé oraux TCF I see learning as a process that's different for everyone. I enjoy working with both traditional tools—manuals, books—and modern ones—apps. The most important thing is to find what works best for us in terms of knowledge integration. I'm familiar with the requirements of university degrees. I was a French teacher and I led workshops for children and adults. I learned to pass on my knowledge of French language. I have experience teaching students from diverse backgrounds, ages, and levels. Many are intimidated by French pronunciation or grammar, but I break down complex concepts into simple, practical steps. I want the student to gain confidence and develop the motivation necessary for lasting success.

TCF & TEF Canada | Exam Preparation with a Former National Radio Director Hi, I’m Ben, a native French teacher from Paris, currently based in Bali. I’ve been teaching French for 13 years and have taught more than 15,000 lessons to over 1,000 students throughout my teaching career. Today, most of my work is focused on TCF Canada and TEF Canada, especially speaking and exam preparation. Before teaching, I spent more than 20 years in radio and media as a presenter, program director and communication coach. That experience still shapes the way I teach. I don’t only help you improve your French, but also the way you communicate: how you organise your ideas, speak with confidence, manage pressure and keep going when you don’t immediately find the perfect word. For TCF and TEF, we work on the exam format, strategy, timing, vocabulary, grammar and regular mock exams. I adapt the lessons to your level and your target. If you’re still a beginner, that’s absolutely fine. We can build your French step by step while keeping your future exam goal in mind. My lessons are relaxed but focused. I’ll correct you, challenge you and push you when I know you can do better, while giving you enough space to make mistakes and try again. Whether your exam is in a few weeks or your Canada project is still months away, we’ll start from where you are and build a clear plan towards your target.

Native French Conversation Tutor 🌿 Helping Adults Speak Naturally | A2–C2 | Based in Scotland Hello ! I'm Marylène, and I help learners improve their French through relaxed conversation practice. My goal is to help you become more fluent, expand your vocabulary, and feel more comfortable speaking French. Before becoming a tutor, I worked as a florist in Paris, where I was also responsible for training apprentices. This experience taught me how to listen carefully, adapt my approach to each learner, and create a positive atmosphere where everyone can progress at their own pace. Outside of teaching, I enjoy travelling, art and illustration, long walks in nature, and discovering films and series. I love learning about other people too, so our conversations can be about these topics—or anything else you're passionate about. These sessions are designed for learners who already have a foundation in French and want to improve their fluency, vocabulary, pronunciation, and confidence through speaking practice. We'll discuss topics that interest you: everyday life, culture, travel, hobbies, current events, or any subject you enjoy. I'll help you express your ideas more naturally, introduce useful vocabulary and expressions, and provide personalised corrections without interrupting the flow of the conversation. My approach focuses on communication rather than traditional grammar classes. However, when helpful, I'll explain vocabulary, expressions, or grammar points that support your communication. I look forward to meeting you! 😊

I'll get you from 0 to CONVERSATIONAL in a short period of time. I have a lot of experience learning languages. My goal, when I start learning any language is to get to a conversational level as soon as possible so that learning can become automatic (through talking with native speakers, watching authentic videos, and learning from authentic materials). I use the SAME METHOD that I use to LEARN to TEACH my students.

    Manon is a wonderful teacher! Her lessons are always interesting, enjoyable, and well-prepared. We've been studying together for over six months, and I can really see how much I've improved. I started with almost no French, and now I can actually have conversations, which feels amazing :) We spend a lot of time speaking during our lessons, and Manon always brings interesting topics, texts, and activities to discuss. She creates a relaxed and supportive atmosphere where it's easy to practice and learn without feeling nervous about making mistakes. I always look forward to our lessons and would happily recommend Manon to anyone who wants to learn French!

Les cours sont bien organisés et très professionnels, tout en se déroulant dans une atmosphère détendue et agréable. Je me suis notamment préparée avec lui pour le DALF C1, en particulier pour la production orale. Même si j’étais au début un peu stressée ou hésitante à l’idée de prendre la parole, je me suis toujours sentie à l’aise pendant les cours. Merci beaucoup à lui <3

    I've had the pleasure of learning French with Maïli for a few lessons now and cannot recommend her enough. Somehow, she strikes just the right balance between letting me ramble on in French and jumping in to correct common mistakes and words that she notices I struggle with. Her style of teaching is great for both building confidence and learning the particularities of the language simultaneously, and I've certainly noticed my French really improve since we started lessons. On top of that she's always friendly and enthusiastic to teach, and always has a nice idiom for any occasion --- very effective for making one's French a little more natural!

    Romain is a phenomenal teacher! He’s kind, engaging, and an exceptional conversationalist. I love the balance between structure and flexibility in his lessons. The materials cover diverse topics while leaving room for spontaneous conversations. As someone who asks tons of questions, I appreciate how clearly and patiently he explains things! Since I speak Portuguese and English, connecting French to Portuguese makes a huge difference. Concepts I was trying to learn for months, Romain explained them in less than four minutes! Beyond French, his extensive knowledge makes conversations profoundly enriching. I feel like I’m learning about life, culture, and different perspectives, not just a language. I also appreciate his approach to corrections: he gives room to find your own words and build confidence. After just a couple of lessons, I feel like I’ve progressed beyond what I could’ve imagined! I leave every lesson feeling fulfilled and accomplished. I can’t recommend him enough!! 😊

    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!

    I came to Lenaïg with the goal of progressing my French skills from near zero to B1. After 4 sessions I am feeling incredibly confident that I will be able to reach my goal with her help, if I am willing to dedicate the time and effort. I have an anxiety streak, especially around learning new things with an audience but her approach has made this very easy for me. Our sessions feel less like a formal instructor and more like a conversation with a friend. Lenaïg's English is incredibly clear. If you are considering her as an instructor and are coming from a native English background, don't hesitate to book a lesson.

  • Wing lam Cheung

    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.

  • Sherry

    Learning French

    I achieved 13 in both speaking and writing with his guidance for TCF Canada. I’m now preparing for DELF B2 and am still learning with him! I highly recommend Sekimi! I’ve taken more than 40 lessons with him, and he helped me go from struggling to express myself to being able to communicate much more freely in French. He is very patient and knows the TCF exam requirements extremely well. Highly recommended! 😊

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
  • 📅 Stay consistent with a clear study plan
  • 💬 Get real conversation practice, which self-study can’t provide

Many learners try to study only with apps, books, or videos. It works, but it usually takes longer because you don’t get feedback, correction, or regular conversation time.

Using a platform like italki gives you access to experienced online French tutors for one-on-one lessons. When you combine private French lessons with extra resources such as apps or podcasts, your progress stays steady and more balanced.

How much does a French tutor cost?

French tutors on italki cost between $4 to $60 per hour, depending on the tutor’s experience and lesson format.

Many learners choose private French tutors because they provide personalized guidance, instant correction, and real conversation practice that help them progress faster than studying alone.

On italki, you have access to both community and professional tutors, making it easy to find a French teacher that matches your goals and budget. A 30-minute online French lesson typically costs between $4 and $10.

Is 3 months enough to learn French?

Yes. With intensive French classes and a dedicated French tutor, you can reach a basic conversational level (A2-B1). At this stage, you can hold simple conversations, introduce yourself, order food, ask for directions, and manage everyday travel situations.

Full fluency takes longer, usually 1–2 years, but 3 months of focused French lessons can help you understand slow, clear French and respond confidently in common situations.

How long does it take to learn French with a tutor?

It depends on your goals and study intensity, but most learners reach conversational French in 6-12 months when they work with an online French tutor. Regular private French lessons help you stay consistent, fix mistakes early, and get real speaking practice.

Basic French conversation (A2) typically takes 3–6 months with 2–3 French lessons per week.
Intermediate French fluency (B1–B2) may take 6–12 months while advanced fluency (C1–C2) may take 1–2 years.

A private French tutor speeds up your progress by providing immediate feedback and consistent speaking practice. Learners who book 3–5 French classes online per week usually move through levels faster than those studying only once a week.
