In this 30-min class, we'll discuss your goals and favorite learning methods. 
You'll let me know if you're a grammar book person, or more into casual chats, role plays, you name it. 
I will also assess your level to build a tailor-made program.

This class is for students from level A1 to C2. Don't worry, the content will be adapted to your level 😉
We'll do grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, reading, writing and speaking. A bit of everything ! We'll follow a customized program that we'll define together at the beginning of your training, based on you level and objectives. 
Discover and consolidate your French with these lessons 'à la carte' !

Based on my experience as a teacher and also as a language learner, I believe a mix of lessons and conversation is very efficient. It's important to know that learning a language is mainly achieved through practice. No matter how many new words you learn, they will soon be forgotten if not used regularly. Learning vocabulary in context allows you a much more efficient acquisition of knowledge. At the end of the classes, we’ll spend some time reviewing new words and grammar points, and I will regularly test you on them, to make sure they’re still fresh in your memory. In addition, the different themes approached will help you enrich your vocabulary on a wide range of topics.

General French A1-C2

In this class, we'll focus on your speaking skills. We'll discuss different topics, prepared and not prepared, and check your pronunciation, an aspect of the language that is unfortunately too often neglected. The goal is to boost your self-confidence when you need to speak français. 
This class might be a bit frustrating for absolute beginners, so an A2 minimum level is recommended.

I totally encourage you to suggest discussion topics, related to your job, hobbies, interests... 
Popular themes are :
- movies 
- music
- travelling
- sports
- learning a new language
- politics
- animals
- environment
- cultural differences between countries
- new technologies 
- ... or anything you want to discuss !

Conversation - from level A2 to C2

This class is designed for absolute beginners. If the only French word you (remotely) know is ‘Bonjour’, these lessons are (totally) for you. I use a book for this class, which you don’t need to buy as I will provide you with PDFs and worksheets. 

We’ll cover the fundamentals : how to master French sounds, numbers, basic French grammar and conjugations, daily vocab, anything you need to reach a survival level, before joining my general French class. 

This program should be covered in about 16 hours.

Absolute beginners – or how to survive in French

I'm aware the title sounds a bit old-fashioned and you probably think you'll be thrown back to days of yore. I might reply that back then people could write full sentences without making 5 mistakes in each. 
We'll focus exclusively on French grammar and its never-ending list of exceptions and incongruities. 
Rules and exercises are on the menu. And homework if you can't get enough during the classes. If you dream of mastering the past conditional, the subjonctive and the agreement of past participles, this class is for you !
Finally, dictations will dramatically boost your listening comprehension and self-correction skills in ways you can't even dream of.

Hardcore grammar and dictations

In this class, we'll work on your writing skills (well, that's what the title says, right ?)
Grammar, spelling, precise choice of words, reformulation, all that will be dealt with during the lessons, so that your written French becomes impressive !

We'll also discuss together the best ways to write with elegance, not necessarily copying a style you like, but getting inspired by it and using it to nourish your own way of expressing yourself with a pen in your hand (or a keyboard in the vicinity).

Writing skills - from A2 to C2

In this class, we'll get you ready for the DELF exam, for which I've worked as an examinator. We'll do listening, reading, writing and speaking exercises, and even a mock test to make sure you pass the DELF. We can of course focus on one specific skill if you want/need to. 
Ce cours s'adresse aux étudiants désirant passer le DALF C1 et C2. Nous travaillerons notamment l'expression écrite et orale, ainsi que la grammaire et la stylistique, afin de mettre toutes les chances de votre côté pour réussir ces examens très difficiles.
