Alexis Munier-Pugin

Not only are these lessons filled with enjoyment and inspiration, but Alexis is also a miracle worker! I met him as my first tutor only 3 weeks ago, and even in this very short time, he has already given me the tools and strategies I need to thoroughly and successfully prepare for my upcoming DELF B1 exam. I had originally signed up for the exam last month as a personal challenge, but then I quickly panicked when I realized I had no idea about how to actually prepare. Alexis to the rescue! In just these few lessons, he has broken everything down for me, given me real-life strategies for each part of the exam, and guided me through many practice simulations so that I will know exactly what to expect on the exam day. Instead of feeling overwhelmed as I did before, I now feel organized, disciplined, and calm about how to prepare each task, step by step. I still have a month left in my studying, but my readiness and confidence is growing by the day, all thanks to Alexis.

Alexis challenges me to be my best, every class, every time. He is always well-prepared. He takes notes, provides a written summary after class, and anytime I'm struggling during class, he takes the time to make sure that I understand the concept before moving on. He's created an extensive library covering virtually every aspect of grammar, and can instantly share a document to assist my mastery of the language. To top it off, he's a genuinely caring human being. Alexis has my highest recommendation.

Working with Alexis continues to be both enjoyable and challenging - a perfect combination. He genuinely cares about my progress, and the time and effort he puts into every lesson shows that. My highest recommendation!

I have been working with Alexis for over a year and a half and it has been an absolute pleasure. I've tried so many teachers over the years but what makes Alexis stand out is not only his skill in tailoring lessons precisely to your needs, an overall great human to relate with. With him, I've learned more than just the French language but also a lot about integrating in a new country, art, politics, etc. He is really motivating and inspiring to constantly do better each time.

Great class as usual! Alexis is amazing whether you would like to have a chat in French or a structured lesson. He sends quality materials allowing you to practice different competences. You can also talk to him about any topic, as he’s well-informed about current world affairs, philosophy, literature, history or anything you could be interested in. He takes notes on what you say and corrections are always on point when it comes to grammar and vocabulary in a cultural context- he makes you speak more naturally.

Alexis is a fantastic tutor. He is expert at assessing your level and pushing you just out of your comfort zone where learning occurs. Our lessons fly by, and he seamlessly guides you through grammar lessons and asks you to put your new knowledge to immediate use while simultaneously developing your reading, listening and speaking skills. He takes care to teach you the everyday use of the French language, something language apps and textbooks so often fail in doing. In addition, Alexis is quite interesting, makes learning fun and effectively utilizes technology to enhance learning and retention.
