Learn French with structure and style
Each class is fully personalized to your goals and pace. I mix structure and spontaneity, grammar and conversation, so that you learn effectively but never feel pressured.
We’ll explore language through real-life topics, from travel and culture to art, cinema and gastronomy. The idea is simple: learn French as a living, inspiring language not as a set of rules. Here’s what my students appreciate most:
✔️ 60-minute private lessons on Zoom
✔️ Structured, clear explanations with a personal touch
✔️ Focus on fluency, pronunciation, and confidence
✔️ Personalized notes and follow-up after each session
✔️ Flexible scheduling adapted to your rhythm
Learning French online from New York feels like a creative escape, a moment to recharge, explore, and connect.
