Just had another great lesson with Justine. I have been taking lessons with her on italki for several years now, and have made really significant progress in my French as a result. She is easy to talk to, asks questions to stimulate conversation, and offers helpful corrections when needed. She often shares worksheets to help me master certain elements of French grammar, or expand my vocabulary. Our lessons are always engaging and enjoyable.

I have been taking regular lessons with Justine for over a year, when I knew I was going move to work in a French-speaking country. She helped me get from not speaking at all to conversing within a couple lessons, on simple themes of course. She has a lot of patience and is fun to talk with even though my vocabulary was limited in the beginning. She could switch between letting me talk (while not interrupting the flow of the conversation, so that I can gain confidence), and aiding and correcting when she can feel that I want it. She is very flexible in terms of tailoring to what I want to do, which differs from time to time (to be honest, according to if I have had the motivation to do homework, or if I just want to talk). Looking forward to continuing :)

Justine is an amazing teacher. She is knowledgeable, patient, supportive and thoughtful. Her energy and enthusiasm about the language is motivating and inspiring. When I started taking lessons from her I was an absolute beginner. I had no previous knowledge or experience with the language. She recommended a great textbook and structured lessons that were consistent with my goals and study habits. I have now been taking lessons from her for seven months and we have progressed through the beginner concepts and into more intermediate topics. Overall, I highly recommend Justine!

Highly recommended. I am enjoying the learning experience.

Enjoyable learning experience!

I have been working with Justine for 6 weeks in preparation for a trip to France. My main goals were to get some assistance in being able to communicate about the basics I will need for my trip and to be able to do so comfortably and without fear. I feel that I accomplished these goals and had a good time doing it! In addition, Justine was very helpful in giving tips and talking about traveling in France in general. Justine was a pleasure to work with and I will miss talking to her now that I am ready for my trip. I would highly recommend her!
