Julie

I spent the past 6 months doing conversation practice with Julie. I’ve only been learning French a few years and, although I felt fairly confident with the grammar, I always doubted my ability to speak French. From the very first lesson Julie made me feel at ease and I knew that with her, I could progress. Her experience learning languages herself means that she understands the troubles faced by non-native speakers as well as the importance of speaking in enhancing written language skills. I feel so much more confident now in my ability to speak French - thank you so much Julie! :)

Julie is awesome!! The flow of her courses is really intuitive and I am grateful to be learning practical essentials to start that will help me in France, like telling the time and learning to hear spoken numbers. I am moving more quickly than I would've expected. Julie is a jovial and gifted teacher! Merci Julie. (:

Julie was super kind and helpful. I told her I've had bad experiences trying to learn French in the past and she completely knew my pain, being a language learner herself. I really enjoyed her sense of humor and clear plan to help me better understand French! Merci Julie!!!

Been meaning to write a review for a long time. I've been taking French conversation lessons with Julie almost every week for six months now, and she is amazing. My French is somewhat fluent, so our "lesson" is mostly just unstructured conversation, but it's great practice for me, and she's always helpful and non-judgmental when I don't know a word or stumble over some difficult grammatical thing. Julie has terrific insights about the language learning and teaching processes more generally too. She's super easy to talk to, always has interesting things to discuss, and has wonderful energy. I'm in such a good mood at the end of every lesson. :)

Me encanta que la profe se adapte a mi ritmo ya que soy totalmente principiante.

I have had two sessions with Julie and I find her to be so patient, kind, very interesting, and so funny. She's really a wonderful teacher and scales the lesson to what my level is while still challenging me. I look forward to more sessions with her.
